Understanding Your Personality DNA
(Overview)Every action, communication and response is driven by our personality DNA—a psychological blueprint that directs temperament and behavior. This personality DNA plays a leading role in determining the types of people and processes we are uncomfortable with. Once we come to an awareness of our own personality DNA, we suddenly realize why we instantly click with some personalities and clash with others. We begin to realize why some processes drive us crazy while we seem to revel in others.
The fact that our personality is blueprinted does not mean that we cannot adjust our behavior, communication and responses. In fact, becoming aware of our personality DNA makes it easier for us to recognize where we need to adjust. There are certain aspects of our personality that we need to throttle back when we are around certain types of clients because those features will rub them the wrong way. With clients who match our own personality style, however, we need to let those particular features of our personality shine.
Beginning on the next page is an overview of the four personality roles (Togetherness, Enterpriser, Analyzer and Motivator) that summarizes the strengths, challenges and common areas needing improvement for each style.
