Who am I?

While my GCI scores were optimistic about my foundation for global leadership, but in the true spirit of analysis, I'd like to discuss my two lowest scores--self-awareness and self-identity. I'm a little surprised by these results, but I have a good idea of where this is coming from. I'm always interested in other people's opinions and perspectives. I often find myself searching for opposing views to editorials I read in the newspaper. I really want to be presented with solid, influencing opinions from all sides of an issue. While this might be considered a strength, this assessment has made me realize that this can be a weakness as well. If I am always ready and willing to be influenced, then maybe I should take more time to build my own opinions before seeking all of the facts and opinions I can before making a decision. But maybe I'm wrong.... what do you think? :D

  1. You've done a good job of summarizing how I often feel about opinions--sometimes I think I look waffly without stronger opinions, but I'm opposed to forming strong ones without getting plenty of insight from everywhere. I also see this mostly as a strength, but it may be a weakness in some contexts, like in a leadership environment when there isn't enough time to collect as much data as we'd like?
