Driver

Understand The Driver

• ✓

  Drivers thrive in work environments that are goal-oriented and with plans that are well-defined. They expect clear communication about next steps and deadlines, and are at their best when the work is difficult, challenging, or demanding, or it presents "impossible missions." It is important to them to work for a company or organization where perseverance and persistence are rewarded.

• ✓

  The work that Drivers do must come to an end or have a completion date or it will not suit them well. Positions where there is little room for personal advancement and roles or assignments that are too simple or mundane cause Drivers to lose motivation and do not incite optimal performance.

• ✓

  Drivers who do not find work that provides advancement, challenges, and opportunities to bring significant projects to completion will be frequently discontent or bored. On the contrary, if they allow stress to build up or take on too much, they could become irritable with others and be prone to burnout. Balancing their need for the rush of overcoming obstacles with a healthy amount of pressure is key to long-term success for the Driver.

  If you are on a team with a Driver, you can expect them to be prepared, resilient, confident, courageous, gritty, bold, and the voice of reason in the midst of chaos. They are dedicated and diligent to run the race full of vigor, settling for nothing less than victory. You can count on them when it looks like the chips are down to rise above and help drive a team to accomplish all that was set before them.
