The age-old saying “Choose a job you love, and you’ll never have to work a day in your life” holds a kernel of truth that is often overlooked. What determines whether you love your job or not? The answer could very well lie in your personality. At Morphos International, we offer an array of tools, including the PEAKS Personality Profile and the Career Positioner Profile to help you navigate the intricacies of career development through the lens of your personality.
The PEAKS Personality Profile
The first step in understanding how your personality aligns with your career is to establish a baseline. PEAKS Psychometrics provides an in-depth profile focusing on five key dimensions: Purpose, Energy, Affirmation, Knowledge, and Sustainability. This comprehensive assessment offers valuable insights into your personality, serving as the foundation for career-related evaluations.
Through the findings derived from PEAKS, we are able to project your work-related traits in 8 categories, namely: General Work-Related Traits, Change-Related Traits, Emotion-Related Traits, Team-Related Traits, Administration-Related Traits, Management-Related Traits, Entrepreneurial and Sales-Related Traits, and Service-Related Traits.
