The answer, or so it seems to me, is through hard work.
That brings me to the tricky question ‘what do you have to do in order to turn a non-preference into a preference’? My ‘Cool Blue’ had remained my lowest colour and had never become a preference for me (or even close). The really interesting bit for me was the one consistent between all three profiles. For example, “have the demands of your role changed’ or “are you in a new role”? When I reflected on my own change in profile it made me realise that my new job role demanded a very different approach from me and that this had been reflected in my profile. When facilitating a session I often ask delegates to reflect on why a change might have occurred. I did my profile again in early 2018 and came out in wheel position 27 (Sunshine Yellow and Earth Green ‘above the line’). I re-did my Insights profile a couple of years later and was then in wheel position 7 (Sunshine Yellow only ‘above the line’). That means I had Sunshine Yellow, Earth Green and Fiery Red ‘above the line’ (as a preference for me). To share my personal experience – I was first introduced to Insights discovery in 2014 and came out with wheel position 47. The short answer is no but, of course, there’ s lots more to it than that. When we are lucky enough to introduce people to Insights Discovery profiles we are often asked whether people are ‘stuck’ with their preferences or wheel position. and sometimes that comes from a tricky question asked by a delegate. It’s a job that provides positive challenge. and, of course, I am with many other clients along the way. One minute I am in Devon working with the University of Exeter and the next I’m in London with The Bank of China. I love my job! As a Management Consultant using Insights I am exposed to different companies, sectors and people all the time.
