Problem Solving Style

My MBTI type is INTJ: I solve problems intuitively by looking at systems as a whole. I prefer to invent new solutions rather than follow traditional approaches.

Although I prefer to work alone, I appreciate talented and experienced team mates who complement my shortcomings.

My top Belbin Team Roles are: “Plant, Specialist & Shaper”. This means that I like to try new things, learn a lot about my work and to take control of the situation that I encounter.
