Your Detailed Personality Assessment

Winning the respect and loyalty of your colleagues comes easily to you. You feel at home in the limelight and find great stimulation from enthusing and inspiring those around you. But how often do you sit down and really think about ways that you could use your wonderful unique skills to truly make the impact that you would like? You enjoy a challenge and always rise to the occasion so make sure that your attitude stays fresh so that you perform to your highest abilities in everything that you do.

When it comes to leadership, you're a firm believer in good morale being the key to getting the best out of your team. It's important to inject some fun into the workplace. You don't like to stand on ceremony. But just make sure that the boundaries don't get blurred and that you still retain a real sense of respect and authority.

You have a very good eye and are naturally attuned to aesthetic beauty. You get excited about work that gives you a lot of freedom and choice. You have strong ambitions and like to push yourself.

You're quite a maverick at heart. Not for you the traditional paths of career development. You have true entrepreneurial flair and are always thinking of new and original ways to get ahead in life. It's good to keep things fresh. You like variety and may feel frustrated in a work set-up which limits your potential for self-expression. Being your own boss is definitely appealing to you.

You're in a steady place right now. Work life is going smoothly, with no major ups or downs. You are quite pensive and open to new ideas but also happy to work at your own pace. It feels good when things follow their logical path. Work may be the source of some serious worries but you know yourself well and are good at managing your concerns and not letting them take over your life. You have a natural inner security which means you can hold your own in a crisis.

The way you approach each day can have huge implications for your success in the workplace. Bouncing out of bed with a spring in your step doesn't exactly come naturally to you. You sometimes find it difficult to get moving in the mornings. It might be worth trying to reinvigorate your morning routine so that getting out of bed is more of a pleasure than a battle! That way you can face the day firing on all cylinders. If you haven't already, why not try exploring some evening relaxation techniques that might help you get the rest you need - whether it's yoga, a soak in the tub or even a full-on gym session. It could make all the difference.

The Future

You may still be a student but you're smart to be thinking ahead and checking out your career options. You're about to embark on a really exciting time in your life - and there's going to be lots of decisions to make that will shape your future. Life an feel like a bit of an endurance race sometimes. It's all about making sure that you have the stamina and commitment to go the distance. You seem to be quite pragmatic about the fact that work has its ups and downs, and this is a really healthy way to be, as long as this doesn't dampen your natural enthusiasm for life.
