ABOUT YOU
Everyone is different and there is no right or wrong way to be. These paragraphs describe how you likely show
up in your natural style.

Mackenzie doesn't appreciate a dirty or messy work station, since she equates dirt and
disorganization with lower quality work. In the long run, she prefers quality over quantity.
Some people see her as being fussy and meticulous. She takes much pride in precise and
accurate work, but others may not always understand her attention to details. She is a real
stickler for quality and systems. Becoming acquainted with her can be difficult since she tends
to withhold her emotions. She may appear to be cool and distant. The new and the unusual
attract her if they also represent high quality. She wants to be seen as a responsible person
and will avoid behavior that could be seen by others as irresponsible. Precision and accuracy
are important to her. Once Mackenzie has started a project, she dislikes interruptions. She
may have a low trust level of others.

Mackenzie is good at analyzing situations that can be felt, touched, seen, heard,
personally observed or experienced. Her motto is, "facts are facts." She tends to become
bogged down in details. She may accumulate so much data that the details overwhelm her.
She sees herself as factual and "down-to-earth." She is more than casually interested in
"theory." When confronted with a problem, she will look for a method, a formula, a procedure
or a system to solve it. She gets frustrated when well-established rules are not observed by
others. She prefers to have everyone adhere to the same rules and regulations. Mackenzie
has an acute awareness of social, economic and political implications of her decisions. She
prefers to study and analyze a problem before responding. She wants to feel that her
response is the correct one. She, capable of routinely making daily decisions, usually
becomes cautious about the bigger decisions; she wants to be absolutely certain her decision
is correct. She takes pride in her competence or her ability to understand all the facts of a
situation. She is good at concentrating on data while looking for the best method of solving the
problem.

Mackenzie likes to ask questions to clarify the communications. She gathers data in order
to be certain she is correct in her work, communications or decision making. When Mackenzie
is deeply involved in thinking through a project, she may appear to be cool and distant. People
may often see Mackenzie as formal and reserved. She may be assessing the situation before
"letting her guard down" and may do so only when she feels comfortable with the
circumstances. She is intuitive and is able to ask good questions in order to get the critical,
complete information she seeks. Mackenzie likes to know what is expected of her in a working
relationship; they also like to know what the duties and responsibilities are for others who will
be involved. Communication is accomplished best by well-defined avenues. People who
show up early or late for appointments may upset her, since her work plans are disrupted.
Mackenzie makes an agenda and prefers that others not change it. She can be outgoing at
times. Basically introverted, she will engage in social conversation when the occasion
warrants. Because Mackenzie wants to be certain she is performing her work assignments
correctly, she enjoys working for a manager who explains what is expected of her.

DISC REFERENCE GUIDE

Find your DISC Graph on the Indigo summary page: Take note of scores furthest away from 50 on the DISC
graph (high or low). These are the behaviors that will stand out most for you. Reference "stand-out" scores
below. Various combinations of stand-out DISC factors will influence communication styles and environmental
needs. For example, a High D, Low C will need a fast-paced, results-oriented environment with lots of freedom.
However, a High D, High C will need an environment where results can be achieved through structure, quality,
and attention to detail. If all scores are near the middle , you are likely adaptable to many environments.

WHAT MOTIVATES YOU


Motivators are like an engine beneath the hood of a car. Motivators aren't easily seen from the outside but they
are what power you. This is important to your college and career choice because motivators correlate directly to
fulfillment and meaning. Most people are happiest selecting a major and career based on their top two
motivators.

Utilitarian Passionate

Theoretical Mainstream

Individualistic Mainstream

Traditional Mainstream

Social Mainstream

Aesthetic Mainstream

- 68 percent of the population - national mean - your score Mainstream - one standard deviation of the national mean
Passionate - two standard deviations above the national mean
Indifferent - two standard deviations below the national mean
Extreme - three standard deviations from the national mean

MOTIVATOR REFERENCE GUIDE

Find your motivators on the Indigo summary page: Connecting with the top two motivators are most
important. A secondary motivator supports the first motivator; for example, a "Social/Theoretical" will use
knowledge to help people. But a Social/Utilitarian will want to help people in an efficient and results-oriented
way. A Social/Individualistic wants to help in their own way. NOTE: The third motivator might be important as
well, especially if it is above the Adult Mean. And the last motivator may be important to avoid!

NEXT STEPS: POSSIBLE CAREER IDEAS

Today's workplace is in constant change and careers are evolving to keep pace. It is not
unusual for people to change careers 4-5 times during their lives. Research indicates that
over 50% of working people hold jobs that do not utilize their natural talents, so they are
neither fully motivated nor satisfied in their work.

Given these realities, it is more important than ever to make informed career decisions based
on a solid understanding of yourself. The list of jobs below has been designed to spark your
imagination and provide ideas. The message is: "Your options are many." These ideas are
not meant to put you in a box or represent a definitive list of options. If your dream job isn't
on the list, don't worry, go for it!

Have a need for additional information
Do not have a high level of trust in others

Possible Solutions:
