ARCHITECT OF STRENGTHS WHO? • You see talent in everyone. You have no issue with people doing things their own way. • You’d rather work in a team than alone. You believe that a collective achievement is often better than the sum of its individual parts.

TIP! • Don’t always take into account other people’s opinions. At a certain point, it is important to make a decision or you will never move forward. • You have a lot of patience with people because you continue to believe in them. Make sure that doesn’t drain too much of your energy. • Don’t be too humble. Ask for your contribution to be recognized. 1
