Where do you fall on the spectrum of dominance and submission?
A score of 0% to 40%:
If you lean towards submissiveness and find comfort in a laid-back approach to life, everything may seem splendid.
However, if you're dissatisfied with how you often navigate encounters
with others, it might be worthwhile to seek assistance in developing
assertiveness skills.
A score of 50% to 70%:
Your dominance and submissiveness tendencies are moderately balanced.
Your responses to various situations likely vary, adapting to the
specifics rather than adhering to a predetermined behavioral pattern.
A score of 80% to 100%:
With a high inclination towards dominance, if others readily accept
your leadership (as is common with many leaders who exhibit high
dominance), you may find contentment.
Yet, if your dominant demeanor leads to conflicts in your daily
interactions, it could be beneficial to dial it back, show empathy, and
allow others to prevail occasionally.
