Personality Styles (Animal Names)
Just learned about a personality test at my Discovery Toys meeting that I find interesting. I attribute it to Team Leader Pat Nelson. Thought it would be fun to share it with you. Be sure to go with your first answer as it is usually the most honest answer.
Here's the test...
Circle the number for each category that best describes the person. Example:
The answer would be IF:
1 Challenges what others say most of the time.
2 Challenges what others say somewhat more than accepting what they say.
3 Accepts what others say somewhat more than challenging what they say.
4 Accepts what others say most of the time.

Leans forward and faces you 1 2 3 4 Leans back and faces away from you

Total of circled numbers __+__+__+__ = ______ Assertive Score (Range 8 to 32)

Responsive Score
Locate your Assertive Score on the horizontal line then locate your Responsive score on the vertical line.
Your two dots connected will make a new dot inside one of the quadrants and you will then have your interpersonal animal style name. Write down your animal as a comment and when enough of us have taken the test I will tell you about what each personality style means. So far Kent, Cheryl, Devin and I have taken this test.
I am a Koala
Kent is a Lion
Cheryl and Devin are Chimps
I'm looking forward to hearing what each of you are. Thanks for taking the test!!!
