Primary Goal
To be the best and make the most of every opportunity. Being recognized as distinctive and standing out in a way that elicits a response from others.
Understand The Achiever
-
The work environments that suit Achievers best are those that allow them to be key and central, and where there is opportunity for them to lead and give direction. The culture and company vision must value high performers and reward them for meeting their goals that exceed expectations.
-
An Achiever will not thrive in work environments where everything is collaborative, the tasks are mundane and they receive little recognition of their unique contributions. They will not thrive in an organization where the products and services are not "A-level".
-
Achievers should be self-aware of their tendency to dismiss or diminish the contributions of others and not acknowledge how everyone needs a time to shine. They must be careful to not become overly focused on personal performance because it can lead to unrealistic standards.
-
If you are on a team with an Achiever they will be ambitious and goal-oriented, due to their high achieving and self-motivated attitude they tend to cause a spirit of healthy competition in a team or organization, inspiring others to be their very best.
