The PeopleHawk® Personality Types

So, what's your Personality Type?

Using this approach as the starting point for candidates, PeopleHawk® developed its own set of scientifically-backed personality types to help candidates understand their characteristics, and indeed those of others.

1. Pioneer

Pioneers enable change and adaptation, and pay attention to the changing environment. They spot important trends, express ideas, anticipate change, and tolerate uncertainty and risk.

2. Broker

Brokers enjoy making new contacts and maintaining existing relations. They are communicative and open. They are able to exert influence and make use of their networks to get results.

3. Achiever

Achievers are task-oriented and focused on work. They make high demands on themselves and others. Competitive and able to tolerate a lot of stress, they are continuously aiming high and measuring their results.

4. Director

Directors are long term thinkers, focused on the future. They will naturally seek to clarify expectations through processes such as planning and setting goals. They tend to be an initiator who defines problems, selects alternatives, assigns roles and tasks.

5. Anchor

The Anchor maintains the structure and flow in a system. They are trustworthy and reliable, and focused on tasks such as relieving workload, organising and coordinating efforts of the team, dealing with crises and technological and logistical issues.

6. Analyst

Analysts know what is happening by breaking problems apart to see all the alternatives. They focus on gathering information, dealing with facts, being rational, and looking at situations from different perspectives.

7. Shaper

The Shaper encourages cooperation and teamwork. They are typically process-oriented, contributing to the development of cohesion and morale, gathering information, establishing participation and promoting problem solving by the team itself.

8. Mentor

Mentors are engaged in the development of people through a caring and compassionate approach. They are helpful, caring, sensitive, approachable, open and fair. Mentors are understanding and take the time to listen to others.
