SYAHADA DIRGA WINGFINDER REPORT
WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE, SYAHADA?
Every one of us is unique, with different passions,
strengths and goals. Knowing your strengths and how
to best leverage them, along with what to watch out
for, enables you to develop, grow and succeed.
Developed by Red Bull and an expert team of psychology
professors, Wingfinder focuses on your strengths, the things that
you're naturally inclined to be good at, and gives you the tools
and coaching to be even better.
The Wingfinder model comprises 25 individual strengths
organised in terms of four key areas.
Thousands of scientific studies have shown these four factors to be more
influential than any others for success in knowledge-based jobs.
Your
CREATIVITY
Your CREATIVITY measures how original and innovative your thinking is, or
how logical and analytical it is.
You're open-minded, often coming up with new and interesting ideas.
You enjoy novelty and change, and avoid routine as much as possible.
Wingfinder measures CREATIVITY using three scales. Let's explore your
creativity in more detail.

Your
THINKING
Your THINKING measures the abilities you draw upon when solving
problems and ranges from Intuitive, to Hands-on Learner, to Balanced
Learner, to Analytical and to Agile.
As an Intuitive thinker your approach to problem solving relies mostly
upon past experiences rather than analysing all aspects of a situation
or challenge and this assists you to find solutions. You enjoy finding
solutions to manageable, practical problems and believe that the best
learning comes from experience, more so than research.
Wingfinder measures THINKING using one scale. Let's explore your thinking
in more detail.
