91% Curiosity 91% Execution 90% Leadership

sounds like a Polymath to me. Thanks Hunter for allowing me to further understand my divided persona.

You will thrive in situations that make use of your ability to design logical and complex systems. You also have the ability to see the “big picture” while at the same time staying connected to the immediate need. Others will likely view you as the go-to person when logical analysis that cuts quickly to the core of the issue is needed. You are thoughtful, and will prefer to work in an environment that exposes you to other independent thinkers, provides you with considerable leeway in getting the job done in your own fashion and often allows for privacy and quiet.
While you can work effectively with others and can be a good team player, you may prefer to operate as an independent contributor. Often quiet and reserved, you will prefer to organize facts and data rather than people and things. You may be good with your hands and are likely to be interested in how and why things work. As a result you may be drawn to the applied side of science and engineering/technology. On the analytical or intellectual side fields such as law, economics, marketing sales (technical), finance or statistical/actuarial fields could provide a great deal of satisfaction.

Why does everything keep telling me to go technical, statistical, actuarial??? That is NOT where I wanna be – just what I have learned to do well because that’s where the jobs were for women in the 70′s! Being good with your hands and wanting to make things work DOESN’T necessarily equate in my mind to law or economics (bleah, urgh). ;-P

Pretty accurate.

Great to have people share their colors. I am purple mountain, and my wife is exactly the opposite with Electric Lime.

One very cool thing people can do is to take this test (or just log back in) on the Primary Color facebook app. You can search on Facebook “What is Your Primary Color”, or, just go to my blog and look in the upper right – that will take you right to the application. if you just log back in with your id and password, you can post this to your page, and see what all your friends colors are. Its pretty cool. Overall, this site has already had a quarter million page views and counting! thanks again.

“those who are very logical and base actions and decisions on facts and those who are equally analytical but make more use of their intuition and “gut feelings.” The latter will, never-the-less, tend to verify their intuition with facts and hard data. While you may be outgoing and people oriented in situations that call for it, you generally prefer to be more introverted in your interactions and to function as an individual contributor.

Strategic planners can be frequently found in this color, where logic and analysis tend to be hallmarks. ”

Very interesting. I didn’t think this test will have much of a grasp of who I am, but this is pretty accurate.

Akemi points out that the test might have been made with a traditional organization in mind. The “About This Free Assesment” page says the intent was to measure human ability, which sounds really generic. Then it seems more about traditional careers by saying things like “leadership + execution = management.” But are all execution-oriented leaders managers? I don’t think so, at least outside of a corporation.

A lot of effort went into making it, so I’m sure there’s a lot of cool psychology behind it. I’m a candy apple red, so I’d like to know the details.

I am a purple mountain majesty – I like the sound of that:

When it comes to taking charge and motivating others to move forward into new territory you are likely to be in the lead. Others generally follow you willingly and will take more risk than normal because of the enthusiastic confidence that you inspire in them. Your character in the face of adversity can be infectious and motivating to others.

One of your major strengths is your ability to define direction and draw others towards it to accomplish a goal. While you can set direction and define desired outcomes, the attention to details may be best left to others. In general, people with this color place a high value on harmonious human contact and relationships. You may find that you tend to trust more than average and will concentrate on the admirable qualities of others.

While you are decisive, you have the gift of being able to see the value of other points of view. Intuition can play a large role in your decision process and personal values will always be important. Your preferred work environment will be one that is people oriented, socially supportive, organized and encourages self-expression. Look for opportunities to be a change agent in a dynamic environment.
