WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A DORMANT POWER
TRIGGER:
You are unlikely to fascinate others through command
and control. POWER personalities are intense leaders who
identify goals and drive to achieve them, pulling people
along as they go. You tend to take a less forceful approach.
Focusing on the big idea, you usually build consensus and
persuade from within a group as opposed to getting out in
front of it.
HOW THIS AFFECTS YOUR PERSONALITY
BRAND:
• Your approach is obliging and flexible. You’re typically
not considered intimidating and tend to know how to
adapt your message to the situation.
• You seek affection above respect. With friends, you’re
a good listener; at work, you are helpful. You typically
listen with an open mind, taking care not to force your
opinions on others. People confide in you because you
tend not to judge.
• You allow others to make decisions and are comfortable
letting others lead, unlike POWER personalities, who
strive to occupy the alpha dog position in the group.
SHOULD YOU LEARN HOW TO ACTIVATE YOUR
POWER TRIGGER?
• In certain situations, you’ll want to influence others
through strength and authority. Look to the POWER
trigger for guidance. POWER personalities use decisive
opinions and goal-oriented communication. By injecting
this focus into your messages, you can lead others
toward your goals.
• You are not a dominant personality, and dislike
controlling others. You don’t want to be the “bad cop.â€
Avoid situations in which you must overtly command
co-workers or clients. Instead, find ways to succeed
with a more subtle style of engagement.
