Personality Quiz

I received an e-mail at work requesting we take a personality test/quiz. Unknowing that this test was only for management and the development department I jumped right in and took it. The result was my answers being sent to some company where they processed over 60 pages all about me and my characteristics. I was surprised that most of the stuff they came up with was pretty true.

Here are just a few of the things they said about me:

Kimi is optimistic about her ability to influence people to her way of thinking, She may not understand why everyone doesn't see life as she does! (Amen!)

Kimi likes to get results through others. She is at her best when she has people working with her.(and for her!)

Flattery will always generate a positive reaction from her (duh!). She is good at creating enthusiasm in others. She is usually filled with good intentions, but often lack the time to fulfill them.

She will not be overlooked nor uninvolved, Kimi tends to deal with problems and challenges in a demanding, driving and self-willed manner. She likes a position with authority.(of course)

Kimi's natural style is to use persuasion and emotion to the extreme (otherwise known as manipulation....bad). She will convince you that what she is saying is not only right, but is exactly what is needed.

Kimi does not like constraints, at times she can be somewhat defiant. She seeks adventure and wants to be seen as her own person.

Kimi is able to walk the line between following rules and bending the rules, and knowing the difference. She surprises others with spontaneous ideas or responses.

When working with Kimi don't overcontrol the situation, don't take credit for her ideas, don't talk down to her(I hate that), don't ask useless or rhetorical questions, don't be curt, cold or tight-lipped.

And it goes on and on and on for a looooong time! So what do you think? Are these things true about me?

Most of them...but there wasn't anything about losing car keys! Considering that you broke a record for how many sets you lost in four months, there should probably be something about forgetfulness on there. ;)

Don't worry, Kimi...as soon as I have my own keys I'm bound to break your record. ;)

Sounds like a facinating test. I would love to take it sometime. About you...I don't know you that well but some of the things sound like what I know of you. Very interesting.

Abbie, one part of my results said I don't pay attention to details, so maybe that's why I loose my keys so much. :)

Lydia you know me well....come visit me soon!

Crystal, the test, if you want to take it, is called Trimetrix 3.0 or something like that. The company who processes your answers is called "True Life"

Chris, you know me well too. :)
