Does your current role fit as a Detailer? Work becomes fun when our work aligns with our Thinking Zone! 

Some roles that may align with your Detailer Thinking Zone include:

Knowing our Thinking Zone can help us finally understand why certain previous jobs may have been frustrating or boring, while others felt easy and fulfilling. If our Thinking Zone is not aligned with our role, it will lead to frustration and disappointment and eventual burnout or job loss. 

Our Thinking Zone can also help us to thrive in our relationships.

The Thinking Zone gives us great insight into why we see eye-to-eye with some people more so than with others. Each of the seven different Thinking Zones process life from either a conceptual or concrete point of view, and begins their thinking from either a collaborative or independent start. Recognizing this can positively affect all our important relationships - from investing in our marriages to parenting with insight; from negotiating with clients to interacting with coworkers; from engaging in friendships to prioritizing ourself.
