YOUR RISK PROFILE ...

To find your risk management profile you must answer the following two questions, which will zooms in one of four alternatives. – Finally, you are invited to assure the quality of your own response to some of your colleagues. - They tend to know the answer...

3 key questions - about your decisions:

Questions nr.1

If you now compare yourself with the same aged, for example in a school class. Will you then describe your decision behaviour in "hard cases" - as "most people" - approximately 6-7 of 10 persons, or "faster than average", approximately 3-4 of 10 persons?

A ) If you said: "as most people" mark your code = ( L )

B ) If you said: "faster than average", mark your code  = ( S )

Questions nr.2

If you are in position to elect your favourite assistant: 

Will you then choose a partner who is faster or slower than you to be active and operative, in unfamiliar decisions/hard cases, under stress ? -

A ) If you prefer a colleque: "faster than you", mark your code = ( H )

B ) If you prefer a colleque: "slower than you",mark your code = ( R )

Key factors: Decision Roles in practice

Focus: SGL-theme no. 7

The project team will use more than 80 percent of their time to take various decisions, says many veteraners that go from project to project.

Many of these decisions will be specific experience and routine, while others will be new, uncertain and risky. It is in the later situation that both the language and the role of temperament, our SGL-profile plays a crucial role.

Most also have an immediate and honest introspection to determine whether they make quick and operative decisions in ”hard cases” or whether they need facts, time and confidence to choose correctly the first time.

To find a model to determine this in a simple and truthful way I developed originally in partnership with the Oil & Gas Division of Norwegian Hydro a special decision tree with corresponding depth questions that we used in appraisals talks and employment interview.

Use the "Decision Tree"

Focus: SGL-theme no. 4

The Decisicion Tree -  shows how people with different "colors" practice management = risk management / risk rooms.

If we imagine problems / issues rising from the root system, the fastest decision response will be with purple-makers on the first branch, who are eager to seek solutions.

Then comes the red-makers on the second branch, who like to explor ideas, before the blue and facts oriented policymakers on the next branch.

The most time-consuming decision-making process will be the acceptance and concensus-seeking yellow decision makers at the top.

In our illustration, this is marked by the dashed decision room for rapid, uncertain and critical decisions. Each decision level and decision-color is further divided into a management direction on the left side and a more skill direction on the right.

• Most decision makers will have dominant strengths and interests of either one or the other direction.

In same aged of people will the different colors or decision roles from experience, be: Yellow ca. 50%, Blue ca. 10%, Purple ca. 10%, Red ca. 30%. - In many situations will the two minority groups: Blue and Purple be the natural leaders.

How do you understand your identity and code ?

WHY ARE YOU: PURPLE / RED / BLUE or YELLOW ?

Focus: SGL-theme no. 4 -About Carl Gustav Jung and his mental compas.

Remember and controll your code:

In your work above, we think your choice either indicates that you prefer: Law and Order ( L ), or you are a Stimuli seeking explorer ( S )

Professional personality tests is mostly based on the fact that the brain is divided into two parts which have different functions. - In SGL - that means you either belong to the: blue / yellow decision vertical axes, or the: red / purple horizontal axes. Jfr. the figure, where SGL let an iceberg illustrate the mental compass to Carl Gustav Jung, like: 

CONTROL THE ALTERNATIVES - Helper or Rescue/Reformator …. ?

TEST: Think your are a project manager:

In this position you can elect your favourite co-leader: Will you then choose a partner that is?

H - one who need more time than yourself to make difficult, unfamiliar decisions under stress? - or:

R – one who is faster than yourself to fight difficult, unfamiliar decisions under stress?

INPUT = OUTPUT 

The answer by whom you prefer as a partner, says everything.

If you chose a Helper who need more time than you in difficult, unfamiliar decisions under stress? - SGL thinks that: 

• You belong to the opposite R-branches, with:
• Blue/Result-orientated rational persons, or the
• Purple/Rebell/Romantic branches with intuitiv personalities 
  

If you - as most people prefere a fighter like an Rescue or Reformator as your favorite partner? -  SGL thinks that:

• You belongs to the oposite H-branches, either as a:  
• Red sensitiv person who feel good to be a Helper, or an: 
  
• Yellow emotional and loyal Helper with a strong EQ (Emotional Intelligens ) 

Our experience says that our favorite partner always represent our shadow, which means the oposite colour in the SGL-system.

Question 3) - the QA-test ..

No model or theory represents truth. Nevertheless, good models show the way to a deeper and better understanding of the obvious. Based on years with SGL-coaching we developed our way of understanding. Now it is your turn to make a QA-test.

 Show your answers and your colour codes,

to some good colleagues.

Ask them so if they recognizes your profile

and your decisions  behaviour?

If they said YES,

your input must have been very good. – Congratulations!
