You can be described as:
Values achievement, sets goals, and prioritizes achieving them
Accommodating and often deferential to others in group settings
Favors routine over experimentation; prefers the familiar to the novel
Accepting and tolerant of delays or challenges
As someone who tends to be driven by exceeding expectations, you are likely to be seen as a high achiever. As a result, you are likely to have excellent follow-through on tasks when appropriately engaged.
You are likely to have a very strong inner drive, which should see you viewed as driven and committed. Team members will generally describe you as motivated to achieve your goals.
You are likely to be agreeable and congenial when interacting with others, generally preferring others to take the lead in group settings. Colleagues are likely to describe you as accommodating and you may defer to others' lead. You are likely to be open to hearing the thoughts and opinions of others but may wait to be asked for your opinion, even when you feel very strongly about something.
Many people would describe you as down to earth and conventional. You are likely to be more concerned with practical matters than abstract concepts and to be more comfortable with things that are familiar than those that appear to be novel. You may also be inclined to favor routine over experimentation.
You are likely to be extremely tolerant of obstacles, setbacks, and others. Others may describe you as being calm and level-headed when under pressure, and unruffled by challenges and setbacks. You tend to have a relaxed outlook on life and come across as easy-going, but this may mean that others perceive you as not acting with urgency.
Highly achievement-oriented by nature, you will likely benefit from taking on particularly challenging tasks to further optimize your effectiveness in a role. Taking on these challenges may also further refine your strengths and enable you to apply them for even greater impact.
Your strong inner motivation and drive are likely to see you do well in a variety of tasks, even in tasks that you do not find intrinsically enjoyable. This strong inner drive can be best utilized in high impact activities where your motivation should see you achieving strong outcomes.
You have a strong preference for being congenial, which may lead you to defer to others. It may be useful to consider whether there are group interactions that will benefit from your thoughts and views in a robust and collaborative discussion, even if this doesn't come naturally to you.
You are likely someone who will put other people's needs before your own. This is likely to make you a cooperative team player. However, you will be well served by remembering that there are times where you need to put your own interests first. In doing so, you may be better positioned to help others as well as yourself.
Effective performance is often a combination of getting things done and interacting well with others. There are times when remaining focused on getting work done is the best approach and times when spending more time engaging with others is beneficial. It may benefit you to take a moment to consider the right balance for a particular job and where you may need to rebalance.
Your natural preference may be to walk the same familiar ground. But it may benefit you to remember to never stop learning and to engage in at least a few activities with the sole intent of learning something new.
Given your highly tolerant and patient nature, you are likely to feel uncomfortable being rushed or pressured by others into taking immediate action. Your prioritization of stable and calm relationships can mean you are unlikely to tell others when they have disappointed you. Understanding that your time, effort, and opinions are valuable may help increase your comfort with voicing your opinions when others don't meet your expectations.
