Follow on Google News | Knobull Shows Career Searchers Ways To Strengthen Their Personal BrandBy: Knobull Are you an innovator overflowing with creative ideas? Are you a leader who inspires people to exceed goals? Or are you a maverick — everything the traditional leader stands for, you stand for the opposite? You can request a skills assessment at the Knobull Contact page." Based on many skill assessments, here are the rarest types of employees who simply outperform everyone else: 1. The Innovator Everyone talks about thinking outside the box, but innovators really do. They often diverge from the norm in their thinking, and they're not hampered by what other people think. Creative roles fit this type of person. 2. The Leader In a world clouded by conflict, leaders have never been more important. We admire them not just for their accomplishments and title, but for their ability to inspire us to tackle big challenges and achieve great things. Management positions tend to be this type of person's sweet spot. 3. The Maverick Mavericks make bureaucrats nervous because of their philosophy, "If it ain't broken, break it." They are known for having contrary points of view, but they always have a loyal group of supporters. Innovators tend to succeed in ground breaking roles. 4. The Engineer Perhaps no other work personality is as methodical and process oriented as the engineer. Engineers use a consistent process that they apply, which includes phases, steps and procedures to solve a problem. Individual contributors that develop a key specialty should succeed. 5. The Expert People have trust in experts because they have credentials that demonstrate they know one thing really well. It could be education, job experience, projects, awards, research, certifications, apprenticeships and media recognition. This type of person will stand out with a fully developed specialty. 6. The Target Marketer Target marketers identify with their audience and feel empathy toward them. Their goal is to know them better and solve their needs better than anyone else. Sales and marketing roles will suit this person best. 7. The Elite Elites are ambitious and determined, and they know people. They're proud of their achievements and are well-paid. In their minds, they earned it and are worth every penny. This type will excel in roles that fit across the organizational. 8. The Cause Being synonymous with a cause has propelled many people onto a bigger stage. Think of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai and her fight for girls' education, or the climate change activist Greta Thunberg. Bentley concluded, "Boost your learning and career success through use of Fast Company edX courses and/or JobStars career coaching that can be found on the Knobull homepage!" End
