On your Insights Discovery profile page, you will notice two large Insights Discovery graphs, a smaller graph in between and a ālensā below.
Conscious Persona
This graph shows how you answered the evaluator. As such, it measures (in proportions that vary among different people):
- Who you believe yourself to be
- How you believe others see you
- Your aspirations (who you would like to be)
The results show your preferred, secondary, tertiary and least preferred energies in relation to each other. This graph could loosely describe you āAt Workā. The āYouā when you know you are being observed ā the mask you wear.
Notice how many colour energies reach above the mid-point line marked ā3ā. These are likely to be the behaviours you are most comfortable using ā the higher, the more comfortable. The opposite is true with colour energies falling below that mid line. The lower, the less comfortable you probably are using this energy.
From an outside perspective, we appear genuine and accomplished using our preferred energies ā and perhaps less āprofessionalā or even immature
when consciously trying to use our less-preferred colour energies.
Less Conscious Persona
Another benefit of the Insights Discovery test is that it shows a view of the more instinctive you. It shows how others may see you and/or how you use your energies and/or behaviours under mild to medium stress. Do your energy/behaviours follow the same order as your conscious graph, or are they different in this your less conscious graph? Do you recognise yourself?
Preference Flow
The middle graph on your profile shows the dynamic (push or pull) between the two larger Insights Discovery graphs. What energies are you bringing up or down in order to succeed in your more conscious role?
If you notice a particularly large positive āeffortā for one or more colour energy, ask yourself why you are bringing those energies and behaviours UP. If there is a negative āeffortā in one or more colour energy, why do you believe such behaviours are LESS required in your more conscious daily role?
If the overall preference flow percentage figure is relatively high (above 40%), are you highly motivated, or a little stressed? If the overall preference flow percentage figure is relatively low (plus to minus 10%), is it that you can do your job with your eyes closed, or are you a little de-motivated?
