Competition is #5 for me. Since discovering my talents many years ago and learning to use my strengths more effectively at each stage of life. When faced with setbacks and disappointment I'm learning to lean into Competition to keep me focused and motivated in positive ways. And as someone who leads with Futuristic #1, Competition keeps me connected to what's now and the next step needed on my way to being a top performer at work and beyond! 😊 SMARTER goals are my favorite way to stay focused Specific Measurable Attainable Relevant Timebound Evaluate Revise goals when needed
Competition is my #3, and it’s an integral part of how I think. My brain is constantly stack ranking people and things, and sometimes that shows up in my conversation. My friends have joked and said, “Jeez, Kris, not everything is a competition!” And with most everyday things, they’re right; it’s just how my brain organizes information. A scoreboard provides structure and organization to my thoughts and actions.
my #6 #Competition setting targets is second nature and my benchmark is always the best in the field that interests me.
My #4. I like to compete against myself (do things better than before,) as well as compete against other’s expectations of me. I enjoy being the underdog and doing something much better than others thought I could. Probably since I also have learner in my top 5.

Competition #1. I appreciate this insight as it’s somewhat difficult to explain this strength to others.
Love this strength in my top 5 and it applies also to my coaching perpective and value. I LOVE winning and being a coach my value is how do I help YOU win on tbe aspects that are meaningful to you. When I help you win, then I get to share in your win and it also becomes my win. Here we are in this big world winning together and that is pretty special!
#1 so I find it frustrating when I don't see metrics and engagement scores to measure. This is why I loved working with Christine Joy Puasa and Mark Jay Cabales who were able to translate the team's accomplishments into metrics that made sense.
