’More interested in ’doing’ than being, this man sees challenge
everywhere he looks - somewhat akin to a mountaineer surveying the
Himalayas.
’As I completed the assessment of this writing, I re-read what I had
written and decided the writer sounded more like a mountaineer than a
member of any other profession.
’His goal-orientation as revealed in his tall ’upper zones’ is immense
and so, out of curiosity, I sought out some of Chris Bonnington’s
writing to compare - the similarities were incredible.
’His middle-zone letters (a, c, e etc) are small, revealing a lack of
interest in status unless, of course, it could be used as either a tool
or a weapon.
’If I were headhunting this man, the very last inducement I would offer
would be status.
’A rather impatient fellow, he moves forward at speed, generating ideas
and seeking to delegate wherever and whenever. The birth of Dolly the
Sheep must have been music to his ears, as his ultimate dream would be
to have his own clone farm so that he could delegate to his heart’s
content.
’Describing words include: independent, energetic, future-minded,
objective, austere, self-analytical and driven.
I noticed that he ended his writing sample with a X.
I wasn’t sure if it was meant to signify a kiss or that X marks the
centre of a target affixed to my back.’

’If I’m so prone to delegation, how can she be sure I submitted my own
handwriting?
’However, apart from the fact that I suffer from vertigo and that I was
never happier than when I had five titles simultaneously on my business
card, I love it.
’In fact, I’d quite like to meet me.’
