Curious -- actively explores the environment, investigates new possibilities, and honors the sense of awe and wonder.

Self-motivated -- responds to deep inner needs, proactively initiates new projects, intrinsically rewarded for efforts.

Visionary -- highly imaginative, maintains a future orientation, thinks in mental pictures.

Entertains the fantastic -- conjures outrageous scenarios, sees possibilities within the seemingly impossible, honors dreams and daydreams.

Takes risks -- goes beyond the comfort zone, experimental and non-conforming, courageously willing to "fail."

Peripatetic -- changes work environments as needed; wanders, walks or travels to inspire fresh thinking; given to movement and interaction.

Playful/humorous -- appreciates incongruities and surprise, able to appear foolish and child-like, laughs easily and often.

Self-accepting -- withholds compulsive criticism of their own ideas, understands "perfection is the enemy of the good," unattached to "looking good" in the eyes of others.

Flexible/adaptive -- open to serendipity and change, able to adjust "game plan" as needed, entertains multiple ideas and solutions.

Makes new connections -- sees relationships between seemingly disconnected elements, synthesizes odd combinations, distills unusual ideas down to their underlying principles.

Reflective -- incubates on problems and challenges; seeks out states of immersion; ponders, muses and contemplates.

Recognizes (and re-cognizes) patterns -- perceptive and discriminating, notices organizing principles and trends, sees (and challenges) the "Big Picture."

Tolerates ambiguity -- comfortable with chaos, able to entertain paradox, doesn't settle for the first "right idea."

Committed to learning -- continually seeks knowledge, synthesizes new input quickly, balances information gathering and action.

Balances intuition and analysis -- alternates between divergent and convergent thinking; entertains hunches before analyzing them; trusts their gut, uses their head.

Situationally collaborative -- balances rugged individualism with political savvy, open to coaching and support, rallies organizational support as needed.

Formally articulate -- communicates ideas effectively, translates abstract concepts into meaningful language, creates prototypes with ease.

Resilient -- bounces back from disappointment, learns quickly from feedback, willing to "try, try again."

Persevering -- hardworking and persistent, champions new ideas with tenacity, committed to follow-through and bottom-line results.
