Psychogeometry is a unique technique that allows you to determine the main qualities of a potential employee, client or future partner. Among numerous psychological tests, psychogeometry is most often used by recruitment managers or to establish contact with the client.
The system was developed by the American doctor of psychology Susan Dellinger, who summarized in him many years of experience with personnel. Today, the test of a haemorrhoids is very popular among personnel officers not only in the US, but, for example, in Russia. Moreover, its passage does not take much time. All you need is to choose one shape from a small list: a circle, a rectangle, a triangle, a square or a zigzag. In the future, practice allows you to determine the figure visually, according to the manner of its behavior.
The test will let you know:
- personal qualities of the future employee / client;
- the prospect of growth within the company / position;
- approach to the disclosure of human potential and the establishment of productive contact with it (therefore, psycho-geometry is important for sales managers).
Let's briefly get acquainted with the types of personality according to the method of psychogeometry:
- A circle. This is the only figure without corners. People who choose a circle are usually democratic and non-conflict. They are important harmonious atmosphere, the circle easily lends itself to someone else's influence, rolls in the direction where it was pushed. But note that the circle does not fall. According to psychogeometry, circles rarely occupy managerial positions, especially in those companies where they will require rigidity, since a peaceful atmosphere for the circle is more important than moving the case. However, this figure seldom aspire to the top of the career ladder.
- Rectangle. According to the author of the technique, a rectangle is more often a temporary state of a person. The rectangle is not stable and its self-esteem is often understated. This person needs recognition of his services from others, he does not have enough faith in himself. Because of this, rectangles often fall under the influence of manipulators. In addition, a person in a state of a rectangle can rarely articulate their desires. And although he believes that he is worthy of a good position, his promotion on the career ladder is often inconsistent.
- Triangle. The triangle is the one whom a rectangle sees itself in dreams and under whose influence the circle can fall. It is a fundamental sign in the bottom that tends to ascend. According to psychogeometry, it is a person who is inclined to make decisions, to go on adventures. Can manipulate people and manage them. He sees not only the goal, but also the road to it. As for obstacles, with them, in the opinion of the triangle, other figures will do fine. Taking such a person to work, it is necessary to understand that he will lay out first of all for his own interests and as long as they coincide with the interests of the company.
- Square. A square is a thorough employee, who approaches to business with all responsibility and always fulfills these promises. However, it is not always aimed at success and does not know how to adapt to the variability of modern business. Personnel personnel appreciate them for their reliability. From the squares, good leaders are obtained, provided that the work of the enterprise is well established.
- Zigzag. This figure differs sharply from the previous ones - it is not closed. As a rule, this is a creative person, with a lot of irony, rebelliousness, a baggage of ideas that often remain disembodied precisely because of the variability of their creator. From zigzags, managers are rarely obtained, they are not team players. However, there are suitable posts for zigzags: a hacker, an actor, a designer or a journalist.
Of course, there are also mixed types of people, and sometimes we tend to use different roles, depending on the psychological state at the moment.
