What Color Is Your Parachute 2018 by Richard N. Bolles copy

I Am a Person Who…
HAS THESE FAVORITE KINDS OF PEOPLE
My Preferred Kinds of People to Work Beside or
Serve
Goal in Filling Out This Petal: To avoid past bad experiences with people at
work, since who (er, whom) you work with can either make the job delightful, or
ruin your day, your week, your year.
What You Are Looking For: (1) A better picture in your mind of what kind of
people surrounding you at work will enable you to operate at your highest and
most effective level. (2) A better picture in your mind of what kind of people you
would most like to serve or help: defined by age, problems, geography, and so
forth.
Form of the Entries on Your Petal: They can be adjectives describing different
kinds of people (“kind,” “patient”) or they can be types of people, as in the
“Holland Code” or “Myers-Briggs” typologies (see this page–this page and this
page, respectively).
Example of a Good Petal: Holland Code: IAS. (1) Kind, generous,
understanding, fun, smart. (2) The unemployed, people struggling with their
faith, worldwide, all ages.
Example of a Bad Petal: People in trouble, young, smart, in urban settings.
Why Bad: Not much help. Too vague.
