Developer
Description: You see the potential in others. Very often, in fact, the potential is all you see. In your view, no individual is fully formed. On the contrary, each individual is a work in progress, alive with possibilities. And you are drawn toward people for this very reason. When you interact with others, your goal is to help them experience success. You look for ways to challenge them. You devise interesting experiences that can stretch them and help them grow. And all the while you are on the lookout for the signs of growth – a new behavior learned or modified, a slight improvement in a skill, a glimpse of excellence or of “flow” where previously there were only halting steps. For you, these small increments – invisible to some – are clear signs of potential being realized. These signs of growth in others are your fuel. They bring you strength and satisfaction. Over time many will seek you out for help and encouragement because on some level they know that your helpfulness is both genuine and fulfilling to you.
Analysis: Training and developing others has always drawn my attention. Living and working with others, and helping them unleash their potential is what energizes me every day. I believe everyone has the potential to do something powerful, and so, helping people develop their potential and do what they desire is how I invest in their future. Helping someone discover and use their capabilities to the fullest gives meaning to my life. Sometimes taking people out of their comfort zone can be challenging, but I enjoy walking with individuals through their fears with optimism that at the end of the journey they will be proud of themselves.
