Character Profiler

Fill out each section (there are 7), taking as long as you like, so that the total of each section adds upto 10. Allocate the values in any way you wish. Sometimes it feels difficult to make them add up to 10, but keep adjusting the numbers of each answer.
Eg you could use a 5, two 2s and a 1, or one each of a 4, 3, 2, and 1, or a 7, a 2, and a 1, or maybe just a 10 and everything else is 0. Whatever you want. Anything. Each section can be assigned differently as long as each section adds up to 10. Just be honest to how you feel you are (or contribute) to a team, of each personality trait in each section.

Once all sections are complete, click on the Profile Me button (at the end of this page) to find out various character profile information about yourself.

If you share this information, use it to work more effectively with others, with a little more knowledge of each others team attributes, positive and negative.

This is not necessarily 100% accurate, so have fun too.
