Greetings All!

I bought the book (used) the other day. Read the first couple of chapters. Just took my assessment.  Then I read the next few chapters in the book.

In reading my standout report… and reflecting on the descriptions of the 9 Standout Roles, I really believe that my report misidentified one of my two roles.  It said I was an Advisor-Connector.  And I really debate the Connector part.  Very little of that role sounds like me.

I was really surprised that I didn’t rank higher in the Creator role… as feedback from co-workers over the years really suggested I should fall in that role.  And as I started reading the chapter that describes the Creator role, I kept saying “That’s me!  That’s me!” to a lot of the statements.

Now, I signed up for the email tips and advice.  But I’m thinking that’s going to be tailored to me being categorized as an “Advisor-Connector” ??    If so, I’d really like to change that to be “Advisor-Creator” (or “Creator-Advisor”… I doubt there’s much difference between the two?).   Is there some way I can change such a setting myself?  (Not seeing one in the various account settings / controls.)   Is there someone I can reach out to in order to get that done?

Thank you,

 

Dave

 

Hi @David.Raasch - Thanks for your question and participation!   As you noted coaching tips are customized based on your Top 2 StandOut roles and cannot be adjusted in our platform.  I'm curious, have you shared your report with friends and co-workers?  Do they see how the Connector role might also suit you? Below are additional resources you might find interesting around our assessment and understanding your results:

I have a similar situation…   perhaps some of the edge questions were not the right answer or whatever, but though I agree with the Provider role (primary), the Pioneer role was a stretch with some alignments of course, but overall, not so much…   my Creator or Advisor 3rd and 4th roles similarity makes the most sense, and I’d prefer to benefit from what it would say about those roles.  Short of me doing this all again with a new email address, can I adjust or get what it would state with either of those two roles as my 2nd strength?

I have a similar situation…   perhaps some of the edge questions were not the right answer or whatever, but though I agree with the Equalizer role (secondary), the Pioneer role was a stretch with some alignments of course, but overall, not so much…   my Teacher role similarity makes the most sense, and I’d prefer to benefit from what it would say about that role.  Short of me doing this all again with a new email address, can I adjust or get what it would state with that role as my 1st strength?
I have shared with colleagues and asked them, they all said the Teacher role is the one that fits me the most by far, since I'm always helping, teaching, coaching, and training people.

Hi ​@LuisGustavo.RamosZani !  I just tagged you in another thread where we addressed a similar question.  I’ll post the thread here also, in case others are curious as well:
