NOTE: If you circle more than one YES,
please put a double circle over the dominant one.
REMEMBER ALSO: These five scenarios have
no wrong answers!
1. Late one day, along with other cruise passengers, you get
stranded on what seems to be uninhabited land. Would you be willing to help (without questioning the
authority of the task’s temporary leader), start to organize (be responsible for a task and willing to be held accountable for its
success), or help coordinate (in whatever capacity needed
at that time)?
Be willing to do? anything I
know how to do | anything I was asked to do
Start to organize? yes | no |
maybe
Help coordinate? yes | no | maybe
2. It’s
been a few weeks now since you won the lottery. You’re getting closer to
deciding what to do with the bulk of the money (with what’s left after paying the bills).
Would you give money to a special cause (without maintaining
control), start a business (anything from a fruit stand
to a franchise operation), or simply invest the money and carry
on as usual (maybe because you’re already
doing something you enjoy?)
Again, circle one on each line and then pick a favorite.
Donate to a Cause: yes | no | maybe
Start a business: yes | no | maybe
Carry on as usual yes | no | maybe
3. This talk keeps coming up about vacations. In a debate,
would you argue on the side of “periodically getting away from it al,” on “if
you enjoyed your job, you wouldn’t need a vacation,” or argue with those who “turn
vacations into legitimate business trips”?
Periodically, I need to get away from it
all yes | no | maybe
It’s the best time to conduct
business yes | no | maybe
I enjoy my job, so I seldom need
one yes
| no | maybe
4. A genie grants you one wish. Would your
wish be practical (communal in nature, family- or group-driven)? grandiose (personal in nature, meaning, ego-driven)?
or idealistic (meaning, philosophical, national/global in
nature, diversity-driven)?
Practical: yes | no | maybe
Grandiose: yes | no | maybe
Idealistic: yes | no | maybe
5. Do
you learn best by studying (reading instructions before assembling items bought
as kits)? by doing
(e.g., do you try
to assemble kits without first reading instructions)?
or by sharing (like helping a novice or child discover the
joy of assembling their own toys/tools/furniture)?
Through studying: always | sometimes | seldom
I learn by doing: always | sometimes | seldom
While sharing: always | sometimes | seldom
