Happy Careers Start By Knowing Your Style
Our studies have found that people have four basic
personality (or behavioural) styles which are:
Drivers | Promoters | Supporters | Analysers
When blended together in varying percentages, these four personality
styles make us who we are.
Most of us are a combination of two styles, the first being a ‘Dominant
Style’ - and it’s the one that governs
how we behave.
Every job has its own ‘behavioural profile’ and the closer the
behavioural match between your style
and the job requirements, the happier, more productive and successful
your career will be.
