![]() There is a simple test that gives you immediate results. Each has its own distinctive strengths and weaknesses. She describes four dominant types of personalities: sanguine, choleric, melancholy and phlegmatic. Florence Littauer wrote a book called Personality Plus.Each one has a unique quality and is easy to understand. The Smalley Institute’s Animal Personality Quiz gives four categories: Lion, Beaver, Otter and Golden Retriever.You may have heard of the Myers-Briggs test or the DISC test or maybe had to take them for your employers. One way we can do that is by learning each person’s individual strengths and weaknesses, and their personalities. There are lots of ways to learn and understand our differences. It is important for us to see that uniqueness to really appreciate it. Just as the countryside would be boring if every tree or flower looked exactly alike, our teams can look beautiful because of their uniqueness. Each team is made up of unique individuals that have their own thoughts and opinions and ideas. (For the biggest of fans, you know this breaks down once you get to “The Force Awakens,” but that is not the point of my story!) But that is not how the teams we lead work. They didn’t think for themselves or seem to have any opinion other than carrying out the orders of their leader. They couldn’t manage to really ever hit their targets, but they were excellent at following directions. I was always fascinated by how the storm troopers marched in unison and carried out their orders just as they were told. ![]()
