Let's divide your skills at dealing with people into working with individuals and working with groups.

Individuals: In working with individuals singly, are you good at:

* communicating in direct conversation or on the phone?
* communicating well by the written word?
* helping, serving or receiving and carrying out instructions?
* referring people, or helping put two people together?
* advising, monitoring, coaching or counseling?
* teaching, instructing, training or tutoring?
* persuading, motivating or selling?
* assessing, evaluating or interpreting others?
* diagnosing, healing or treating?

Groups: In working with organizations, companies or associations, are you good at:

* making presentations?
* communicating by written word like a newsletter?
* public speaking?
* leading or moderating a group discussion?
* preparing seminars or other educational events?
* training large groups?
* consulting or giving advice?
* leading or taking the lead?
* coaching others in recreation or exercise?
* performing, acting, singing, amusing or inspiring?
* motivating, persuading or selling?
* negotiating a settlement of some kind?
* following through, getting things finished, producing?
* managing or running a business?
* supervising?
* initiating or beginning a concept, idea or business?

Think carefully about each of these items. Answer fairly and honestly. There's no reason to try and fool anyone. This is not a personality test! You're simply attempting to frame your likes and dislikes about dealing with individuals, singly or in groups. Compile your list of definite yes and no answers and write them down. Keep them handy for future reference.
