Extraordinary Careers: Free Quiz

— LRicci at 7:42 pm on Saturday, January 13, 2007

Here’s a quiz to test where you are as compared to Extraordinary Executives. Cover of Book, Five Patterns of Extraordinary Careers

I’m a test junkie. No surprise, since most students of Sociology love this stuff, and I use my Sociology major from college every day.

The first question is: I work significantly longer and harder than my peers. Should be a quick test for most Proposal professionals!

The quiz is constructed from research described in the book, The 5 Patterns of Extraordinary Careers by James M. Citrin and Richard Smith.

What was your overall score? Mine was 66 points, Successful Professional. I’m not sure that is very good.

I scored 72 when I told the truth, and saw a couple of questions I could answer differently if I was inside an organization again.

Some of the questions I might quibble with, but the analysis provided a viewpoint with thoughtful perspective.
