Make the right career choice
Suitability for a job is determined by a number of factors, including a person’s behavioural or personality
style. People who choose a career based on their natural abilities are more productive and happier at
work.

The right job lets you use your talents in ways that come naturally. Your Career Profile provides valuable
information on how to choose the right career path to maximise your natural gifts and talents and help you
make a career choice that’s right for YOU.

Four personality styles

People have four basic personality styles. When blended together in varying percentages, they make you
who you are. These styles define the way you act, think, learn, socialise and behave. You are “wired” with
these traits from birth. It’s like a default factory setting. One style is not better than the other.

Who you are is of course more than just four styles; it’s also how you were raised, your home life and
family heritage, your ethnic and religious upbringing, and your education and learning environment. If
you imagine that who you are is like an iceberg, then the part people see above the water line is your
personality style.

What attracts you?

We each have an internal magnet. It’s attracted to either people or tasks, or somewhere in between. Some
people need people around them; it energises them, stimulates and excites them. They don’t like being
alone, trust their own intuition and are persuaded by an emotional argument. We call these people PROMOTERS
and SUPPORTERS. These personality styles tend to be good with people.

Then there are those whose magnet is attracted to tasks and have their energy drained by being around
people. They’d rather curl up with a book than go out, they enjoy their own company, and can work alone
on detailed tasks. These styles rely on facts and logic. They are persuaded by rational arguments and
emotion does not play a big part in their decision making. We call these people DRIVERS and ANALYSERS.
These personality styles are good with tasks and information.

How fast do you go?

The other factor that determines our personality style is our internal motor, or rather the speed at which we
do things. Some of us are dynamic and move at a rapid pace. We are outgoing and do things quickly – we
want things done now. We make decisions quickly, we fall in love quickly, we shop quickly and so on. We like
variety, action and adventure. We call these people DRIVERS and PROMOTERS.

Others of us are conservative and work at a slower pace. We also want to get things done, but done
correctly and in a considered manner. We decide more slowly, we are more cautious, we don’t take risks
and we are discerning. We are not impulsive and are usually reserved. We see no need to rush and we
prefer the steady approach to completing tasks. We are organised and well prepared. We call these
people SUPPORTERS and ANALYSERS.

Profile: Analyser Supporter Copyright Myprofile Pty Ltd 2010
Your Analyser Supporter style
Analyser Supporters are thinkers and like to follow rules and procedures. They are patient and accurate,
hard-working and thorough. Often described as perfectionists, they strive to be perfect in everything they
do. They want to get it done right every time. Analyser Supporters want to be in control of processes and
systems, including quality control and compliance.

As an Analyser Supporter you are motivated by security and accuracy. You seek an unchanging, familiar
and secure environment with predictable work patterns and clearly defined structure and objectives. You
are logical, dependable and disciplined, and perform well in a consistent and well-organised manner. You
go by the book and are extremely conscientious. You like to think ahead and plan your strategy in advance.
You don’t like surprises and take care to be well organised. Your attention to detail sets high standards
for yourself and others around you. You follow predictable processes and avoid risk wherever possible.

Quality is important to you and you often seek ways to improve a product or process in order to make it
better than before. You are more comfortable with tasks than people, but you do have people skills and are
a good listener.

You make sound business decisions based on information and data you’ve collected. You ensure that the
information you have is up-to-date and accurate. Other people also rely on you to provide accurate infor-
mation. You are pleased when you’ve saved money or time by doing it right the first time.

Analyser Supporters like to focus on stable, predictable outcomes. You like to know exactly what you are
doing, where you’re headed and what support you’ll get along the way. You are logical and tend to take a
suspicious and sceptical approach to new ideas and change.

If you have not been given adequate time to adjust and a convincing explanation of the reason why a
change is necessary, you are likely to resist.

You use your knowledge and experience to solve problems and you prefer to communicate in writing. You
influence others through the use of factual and logical arguments.

How you make a difference
You make a difference by “being yourself”. “Being yourself” means using your
natural gifts and talents. The key to a successful career is to focus on what you
are good at. But “being yourself” is not enough. You need to acquire skills and
qualifications so that you can utilise your strengths to be the best you can be.

People with an ANALYSER SUPPORTER style similar to yours make a difference by:

Moving one step at a time

You generally tend to work through problems and tasks one step at a time. You work logically
and encourage slow but steady progress. You make a difference by being orderly and system-
atic.

Applying rules

You respect authority and are willing to use your authority with a sense of fairness. You
understand that rules are meant to be followed because they create order and a method by
which things get done. You make a difference by sticking to procedures and systems.

Keeping things simple

You make a difference by using your natural talent to produce timetables, plans and goals.
You make things easier by simplifying procedures. You have an ability to identify the steps
needed to implement a plan and to set out the things that need to be done.

Getting it done on time

You are realistic and strive for results such as getting things done on time, or saving money or
figuring out how to be more productive. You want to see tasks completed efficiently. You make
a difference by ensuring that things are done correctly and deadlines are met.

Gathering information

Your strengths in gathering and collating information make a difference by enabling you to
produce factual material such as manuals and text books and enabling you to store information
so that it can be accessed efficiently.

Providing training

Because you are good at breaking down tasks, you make a difference by being a good trainer.
You show people how to do things step-by-step, in an easily understood way.

Finding mistakes

You are good at finding mistakes and preventing problems before they happen. You double-check
your work and that of others. This often leads to uncovering mistakes and seeing problems before
they occur. You make a difference by your thoroughness, eye for detail and research.

Being there for others

You make a difference by helping others and you are prepared to drop whatever you’re
doing to be there for them in difficult situations. You accept people for who they are.

Smoothing conflict

Your natural style is to avoid conflict and you do your best to make sure that stress is not
part of your life. The difference you make is to be the peacemaker, accommodating and
thoughtful.

Behaving respectfully

Because you want people to be treated respectfully, you do the same to others. You make a
difference by showing respect and honesty and treating everyone fairly.

Your Analyser learning style
Analysers perceive information factually and process it deliberately. They learn by listening to and
thinking about the information. They like to deal with facts and want to know what their teachers think.
They do well at subjects that require abstract concepts, logical thinking, theories and analysis. Analysers
learn in a step-by-step approach and need time to think things over. Learning must have structure.
Analysers are good at setting time aside to complete assignments. They don’t like to rush or be late and
like to have projects completed early. Analysers are usually the first students to arrive in class and are
the most prepared.

Analysers can think through their experiences, judge the accuracy of what they encounter and examine
details and specifics. They excel in traditional learning environments. They study, they read, they like to
know how things work and they thrive on stimulating lectures and teachers who know their subject and
can challenge them. They tackle problems as they do assignments and learning – logically. They seek
facts and want to be as knowledgeable and accurate as possible.

Analyser students want to do what’s “right”. They like clearly defined goals and rules. They learn best in
a tightly controlled environment and can make sense out of confusing information. They are usually neat
and tidy and like everything to be in its right place.

Analyser students see education as a serious matter. To them the future and betterment of mankind
depends on useful knowledge and information.
