Our result: The Amiable Agent
You are creative, soulful, and everyone can count on you. You are encouraging, you support your colleagues, and you are happy to help out when necessary. You are very team focused, loyal, and you pay attention to detail. You however need to let loose, challenge yourself, speak up, and set yourself apart. Let the creative juices flow!

But we would like to be: The Business Baron
You are logical, rationale, and a strategy based planner. You look to the past for proof, you stick with the facts, and you rely on previous experiences before making a big decision. You use measurement and quantitative analysis to make operations as efficient as possible and you are sharp, quick, and look good in a suit. Are you in a committed relationship with Excel? Do you find yourself daydreaming about P&L’s? Stop basing your entire self worth on the number of hours you put in at work, take a vacation, grab a drink with your colleagues, relax!

And who you are: a d.school thinker or a b.school thinker? Take the quiz now!

According to me documented innovators and business owners will share their stories through panel discussions. This to some extent right.
