Your scores across seven work style dimensions.
Each dimension is a scale between two poles. The marker shows where you are.
Your score vs. population average (50%). Dimensions above 50% are above average.
What your scores in each dimension mean.
You can work both in a structured and flexible way depending on the situation. You appreciate having a framework plan, but you don't need every detail planned out. You adapt to changes but prefer at least a basic order.
You can work effectively both in a team and independently. You appreciate team collaboration on more complex tasks, but prefer to sit down alone for routine work. You seek a balance between social contact and quiet focus.
You can speed up when needed and also slow down for more thorough work. You adapt your pace to circumstances - you handle urgent matters quickly and analyze complex problems carefully.
In some areas you are proactive and come up with your own ideas, in others you prefer to wait for assignments. It depends on context - in your field you take initiative, in unfamiliar environments you are more cautious.
You pay attention to details where it matters, but you can also look at things from a higher perspective. You don't need to check everything - you distinguish where precision is key and where an approximation is sufficient.
You weigh risks and benefits before making a decision. You are neither too cautious nor too bold - you seek a reasonable balance. You take risks where you see a good chance of success and are careful where the stakes are high.
You enjoy consistency and specialization. Routine doesn't bother you - on the contrary, you find security and mastery in repetition. You are a specialist who constantly improves in your domain. A stable environment and predictable tasks allow you to perform at your best.

How your work style affects collaboration with others.
Your systematicness brings order and predictability to the team. Colleagues can rely on you to meet deadlines and follow processes. Sometimes, however, you may come across as rigid - try to be open to unplanned ideas from others.
Your orientation toward collaboration makes you a valuable team player. Colleagues appreciate your willingness to help and share know-how. But watch out for a tendency to rely too much on feedback from others - trust your own judgment too.
Your high pace can be contagious - you energize the team around you. But beware of impatience with slower colleagues. Not everyone operates at the same pace, and sometimes a slower approach is qualitatively better.
Your proactivity is valuable in any team - you bring energy and new ideas. But be careful not to dominate discussions and leave space for less assertive colleagues. Your initiative is inspiring when it respects others.
Your thoroughness is valued in the team - colleagues know your work will be flawless. Sometimes, however, you may come across as a perfectionist who slows things down. Learn to distinguish when precision is necessary and when a "good enough" result will do.
Your courage can be inspiring but also a source of tension in the team. Colleagues appreciate your willingness to try new things but may worry about consequences. Communicate your risks transparently and involve the team in decision-making.
Your curiosity and need for novelty bring fresh air to the team. You come with new perspectives and approaches. But be careful not to appear unfocused - colleagues need to know you will see things through to the end.
What work environment suits you and how your style manifests in practice.
