Your passions:

These are the areas you're passionate about when it comes to what your work is accomplishing.

Achievement

You feel significance when you achieve a goal, exceed an expectation and beat the competition. Winning energizes you. Challenges motivate and inspire you to take action—because you’re always looking for the next opportunity to win. You strive to have the best idea in a meeting, make record sales or lead the highest performing team. You get excited when others notice and applaud your results. You want and need scoreboards to track your progress.

Creativity

You’re motivated by creating original, better and different products or services. You feel significance when you’re creating new things for others. Whether it be an idea, a piece of art, a business, a book, a song, a makeover, a design or clothing, you want to imagine a new thing that makes an impact on others and brings value to their lives. You’re motivated and energized by originality, beauty and venturing into new territory where no one else has been.

Efficiency

You feel significance when you’re creating and maintaining efficient systems and results. Order gives you energy while disorder drains you. You look for order and efficiency as a sign of quality. When observing disorder and dysfunction in systems or policies, you instinctively see or wonder about the source of the problem and the solution. You look for ways to establish new and better procedures that will result in a better overall system or an end product.

Influence

You believe people can change—and you want to be a part of their change. It's meaningful for you to connect with people, confront their challenges and convince them that they don’t have to stay where they are. Using your influence to produce change energizes you and gives you a sense of significance. You’re driven to cast a vision for all that could be. You want to lead people and causes. Activating and guiding people and teams to their desired future is not pressure, it’s preferred.

Service

Helping others fills your heart, gives you energy and creates a feeling of significance. You desire to lift people, protect people and care for people in whatever ways you can. Your eyes and ears are always scanning for the person who is in need—and you’re motivated to bring them relief in some form. While others are reluctant to jump in and help, you’re ready to help at a moment’s notice. You’re driven by a desire to heal, to include, to listen and to love others.

Solution

Problems don’t scare you—they energize you. When things don’t work, you get to work because you’re a problem-solver. The more problems you solve the better your day is—and that makes you feel significant to your organization. You believe you can always find a solution to any problem and you’re quick to dive into analysis and troubleshooting to figure it out. In fact, you find meaning in identifying problems and then pushing past them.
