Faced with any given scenario, I can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.

What makes me stand out? Chances are good that I might recognize recurring sequences in data, events, information, or people’s comments. These insights might enable me to form links between things that others cannot.

By nature, I notice that the right word usually pops into my mind exactly when I need it [Editor’s note: I am a devoted worker of crossword puzzles]. My comfort with language makes the oral or written expression of my ideas or feelings appear almost effortless. Others benefit from my ability to transmit information, thoughts, or emotions by using a vocabulary they can easily understand.

I am innovative, inventive, original, and resourceful, and adept at venturing beyond the commonplace, the familiar, or the obvious. I entertain ideas about the best ways to reach a goal, increase productivity, or solve a problem.

First, I think of alternatives. Then I choose the best option. I can usually find the right words to express whatever I am thinking. I can offer explanations, discuss ideas, give examples, or share stories, and effectively use the written or spoken word as necessary.

I enjoy brainstorming and considering the spontaneous contribution of ideas from all participants. I am able to suggest multiple perspectives and solutions, and to serve as a springboard for my own and others’ imaginations.
