This awareness allows you to operate at your best, and then find and surround yourself with people who complement you and fill in the gaps. Once you know your team members’ Kolbe profiles, you can put the right person in the right position.

Too often, businesses attempt to make Popeye someone he is not. They hire a project manager and try to make him a sales representative. They hire a sales representative and try to turn her into an administrator. Or they hire a wrong person completely and he or she is a cultural mismatch for the company.

Before hiring Popeye, you’d best find out who Popeye really is.
