Earlier this month, I took Ray Dalio's PrinciplesYou Free Assessment. The last time I took a psychometric was November 2012 (Myers Briggs: Introversion, iNtuition, Thinking, Perceiving (INTP)). The YouPrinciples results are much more detailed and insightful and overall I was comfortable with the results which I have included below.
I have set a goal of improving the following metrics: Conceptual, Nurturing, Humorous.
