Under-employed? Surely not. Yes, says graphologist Diane
Simpson.
No, insists this week’s subject, HHCL & Partners’ Rupert Howell.
’This subject is currently somewhat under-employed, judging by the
amount of surplus drive he generates. His neat, legible, widely-spaced
writing reveals his well-oiled communication skills.
’At the beginning of the sample, his i dots pull to the left; a sign of
caution. But, lo and behold, three words before he finished writing, the
dot moved strongly to the right, revealing an impatient little burst of
speed as the end hove into sight!
’This man has great clarity of thought, is a trifle impatient (in fact,
that’s an understatement) and has a well-honed critical faculty. He
favours tactical manoeuvring but in short bursts rather than in
protracted campaigns.
’Keenly observant with a real eye for detail, he misses only that which
he chooses to ignore. His small, simply-drawn personal pronoun indicates
personal modesty. Which is just as well, because this man is very, very
bright - his IQ places him well within the top 5%.’
Rupert Howell, joint chief executive, HHCL & Partners
’This is pretty tight, really; a reasonable description of some of my
traits. I am certainly extremely impatient and I get very bored if I
have to do things for too long.
’The bit about my insistence on detail is pretty much on the button.
Everyone who works with me would agree with that.
’I refuse to comment on the flattering bits, but I have to say I am
entertained by the observation that I am under-employed. Are you sure
that’s not a typo? I’ve never felt so over-employed in my whole
life.’
