vrsg.8707@hotmail.com, assessed 28 April 2022
WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE, VICTOR RAUL?
Every one of us is unique, with different passions,
strengths and goals. Knowing your strengths and how
to best leverage them, along with what to watch out
for, enables you to develop, grow and succeed.
Developed by Red Bull and an expert team of psychology
professors, Wingfinder focuses on your strengths, the things that
you're naturally inclined to be good at, and gives you the tools
and coaching to be even better.
The Wingfinder model comprises 25 individual strengths
organised in terms of four key areas.
Thousands of scientific studies have shown these four factors to be more
influential than any others for success in knowledge-based jobs.
Your
CREATIVITY
Your CREATIVITY measures how original and innovative your thinking is, or
how logical and analytical it is.
You're good at coming up with new ideas but also recognise the
importance of combining this with tried and tested approaches. You
enjoy a balance between the new and the old, and appreciate
originality when it's not too eccentric.
Wingfinder measures CREATIVITY using three scales. Let's explore your
creativity in more detail.

Your
THINKING
Your THINKING measures the abilities you draw upon when solving
problems and ranges from Intuitive, to Hands-on Learner, to Balanced
Learner, to Analytical and to Agile.
As a Balanced Learner you will generally learn new things as quickly as
most others. You use both your prior learnings and logical reasoning
skills to evaluate tasks, opinions and ideas which assists you in finding
solutions.

network. Your ability to read and influence others means you're
comfortable in most social situations.
