  • Strengths Awareness Test

    Have you ever taken a personality test that absolutely bored you? I have too! After all those dull & dreary wordassociations, & endless questions, what do you get? Results that often require a Ph.D. to interpret, with clinicalanalysis that has no bearing on your day-to-day life. These clinical test results also only focus on you, & not onhow you need to relate to & interact with others by using your strengths.. After all, who do we work with? Otherpeople. Who do we live with? Other people. Who do we interact with each day? Other people. The fact is, it’snot about you, it’s about how you communicate with others.
  • You Learn….
    1. how to relate &; interact with others
    2. to understand the gifts and strengths you were born with
    3. to recognize each personality so you can work efficiently with them
    4. how to communicate more effectively & speak to others
    5. that your personal & working relationships will become less stressful & more productive

    From years of research, trial & error, & observation of practical human behavior, we learned there are four basic types of personalities, & everyone needs to speak the language of each personality type to excel in all areas of
    life. You m must identify your own personality type, or “GEM,” & get comfortable with your own language. Once
    you understand your GEM type, you can learn to spot other GEMS quickly.
    Walk through these various scenarios & answer the questions honestly. Remember, the only right answer is an
    honest answer! Not all of these scenarios will apply to you perfectly. So just place a check mark next to the
    answer that is most appropriate or you feel best describes you. You may notice letters at the end of each option,
    ignore them while you are reading through, they are to score your test after you have completed it.

  • Congratulations on completing the assessment!

    Great job.  So…..now what?  Simply go back through the assessment & add up the number of items that corresponds to the letters A, B, C & D & enter those totals on the lines below.  Keep in mind that there are NO RIGHT ANSWERS or “GOOD” GEMS.  Each GEM is excellent in its own right, with strengths & advantages that need to be recognized & honored to maximize communication!

    A______                         A = Sapphire you are motivated by fun!
    B______                         B = Ruby you are motivated by a challenge and/or money.
    C______                         C = Pearl you are motivated by a cause.
    D______                         D = Emerald you are motivated by facts & figures.

    But hold on; you don’t get just one score; you get two.  Everyone has a primary & a secondary GEM. So, if the highest total number of answers corresponds to the letter D, & the second highest number of answers corresponds to the letter B, you are an Emerald (Primary) & Ruby (Secondary).

    Now enter your GEM numbers into the Interview Pack under question #2.

     I have CD’s that give more detail on each GEM. People have many different responses to the GEMS Strength Awareness Test.  Some may have found the process of taking this test to be a bit uncomfortable, while others find that the results fit them accurately.  Whatever your response, your feelings are valid & consistent with the GEMS Mastery.
