HELLO JANE,

YOUR FASCINATION ADVANTAGES
Your PRIMARY Advantage is your most effective mode of communication. When you
communicate with this Advantage, you are your most fascinating and infuential.
Your SECONDARY Advantage describes your second-highest mode of communication.
Like your PRIMARY Advantage, it describes how your personality is most likely to add
value.
When you communicate with your primary and secondary Advantages, you come
across as more confdent and authentic.
Your PRIMARY and SECONDARY Advantages combine to form your Archetype. Your
Archetype indicates how the world sees you.
Your DORMANT Advantage is the one that holds the least potential for you in
fascinating others. Its how you are least likely to infuence and impress others.

HIGHEST AND BEST VALUE OF THE CATALYST

The more opportunities you have to create change, the more others beneft from your
Archetypes distinct value.

With a primary Passion Advantage, you are most likely to contribute when emotionally
involved.

You feed off the energy in a room, and resist feeling shut off from the heart of the action.

Catalysts usually shine in the spotlight, so you frequently seek personality-oriented careers
such as PR, marketing, and customer service.
WHAT IS NOT THE HIGHEST AND BEST VALUE OF THE CATALYST?

You are a creative spirit. You often dislike repetitive, linear tasks. If forced to adhere to a rigid
set of rules, you can become bored and distracted.

With a secondary Innovation Advantage, you excel when allowed to imagine.

You are an out-of-the-box thinker and you often ignore the box entirely.

You should be free for work that demands untraditional thinking.

6 / 16 THE CATALYST : FIRST LOOK Hello@HowToFascinate.com | 855.973.2663
You feel passionately about things. Your enthusiasm livens up meetings
and energizes your co-workers. Yet its not enough to feel passionately
you must also learn how to turn that passion into tangible results for your
client or team. Focus on the objectives you want your team to meet and
agree on deadlines. Demonstrate how you contribute to the companys
success.
Catalysts naturally have colorful personalities, and make friends easily. Even at a rather formal
interview setting youll fnd that you quickly warm to them. They communicate with zeal, which
encourages co-workers and customers to get involved in their projects.
When they turn on the juice, they can quickly build relationships and spread a message.
Theyre at ease in unproven waters. If something becomes too routine or familiar, they like
to challenge or reinvent it. As marketers they keep campaigns fresh; and you fnd they enjoy
trialing new social media platforms.
Catalysts vividly share their ideas and perspectives, which adds energy to conversations. At the
end of a long product development meeting, for instance, they ensure the meeting doesnt fzzle
out. They wrap up by reinvigorating the team to make the new product a success.
When everyone else gets stuck, Catalysts can nd unexpected ideas. For instance, when you
need to shift an overstocked item and nobody seems able to nd clients, theyll come up with
a way to sell it through a totally new market channel. People often hire them for their ability to
develop fresh solutions.

You can use these adjectives to create your Anthem. Your Anthem
is the tagline for your personality. An Anthem is a very short phrase,
only two or three words. Just like an advertising tagline, your
Anthem pinpoints what makes you most valuable.
SAMPLE ANTHEM FOR THE CATALYST: ENERGIZING CONNECTION
HERES AN EXAMPLE: MEET DIRK
Dirk sells cars. He has developed a welcoming method: the minute
someone comes into the showroom, they are provided immediate
contact. Nobody walks in through the door without being greeted
within fve minutes. When the customer goes on a test drive,
they get to pick which car they want to drive, even if they arent
planning on buying that particular model. Dirk makes sure that every
customer or potential customer leaves with a positive impression of
a car salesman. Because he wants them to tell their friends.

VALUE I DELIVER:

CONNECTION

POWER MY DORMANT ADVANTAGE
WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A DORMANT POWER
ADVANTAGE:
This is your most exhausting form of communication. Its how you
are least likely to impress others.
Try to avoid situations that force you to communicate with your
dormant Advantage, because this form of communication will
cost you a disproportionate amount of energy and its unlikely to
set you up for success.
Situations that force you to use your dormant Advantage will act
like quicksand. Youll feel stuck, unable to move forward without
using up all your energy.
Its important to recognize these types of interactions, because
they can prevent you from making progress and momentum.
WHY USING POWER
FEELS LIKE QUICKSAND:
KNOW YOUR OWN VALUE SO OTHERS CAN TOO
CREATE THE TAGLINE FOR YOUR PERSONALITY
Focus on your Anthem and you can stop worrying about having to tap
into your dormant Advantage. To learn more about how to apply your
Advantages visit HowToFascinate.com
You are not a dominant personality, and dislike controlling
others. You dont want to be the bad cop. Avoid situations
in which you must overtly command co-workers or clients.
Instead, fnd ways to succeed with a more subtle style of
engagement.
When forced to use your dormant Advantage, it exhausts your
energy and focus. Because this is your least natural mode
of communication, it requires tremendous additional energy
in order to relate to others in this way. It feels awkward and
unnatural. It leaves you drained.
Heres your goal: Find more opportunities to apply your
top Advantages. Then youre far more likely to exceed
expectations at every turn.
SHOULD YOU LEARN HOW TO ACTIVATE THE POWER
ADVANTAGE?

Your approach is obliging
and fexible. Youre
typically not considered
intimidating and tend to
know how to adapt your
message to the situation.

You want others to like
you. With friends, youre
a good listener; at work,
you are helpful. You
typically listen with an
open mind, taking care
not to force your opinions
on others. People confde
in you because you tend
not to judge.

You allow others to
make decisions and are
comfortable letting others
lead, unlike POWER
personalities, who strive
to occupy the alpha dog
position in the group.

Once you know your
personalitys dormant
Advantage, youll
understand why these
tasks feel like struggling
through quicksand, and
how to avoid spending
your energy on those
traps.

There are many ways to become a trusted and valued partner.
The TRUST Advantage is one way, but there are other ways.
If you do not naturally enjoy repeating the same process over
and over, you will never reach your full potential in a job that
forces you to follow a rigid path.
When forced to use your dormant Advantage, it exhausts your
energy and focus. Because this is your least natural mode

Advantages. Then youre far more likely to exceed

SHOULD YOU LEARN HOW TO ACTIVATE THE TRUST
ADVANTAGE?

You have an entrepreneurial
approach to your career. At
work, you dislike falling
into ruts, or performing
the same duties every day.
You appreciate variety and
actively seek new ways
to accomplish a problem.
When co-workers or clients
bring you challenges, they
know youll help them fnd
new opportunities.

You intuitively know how
to persuade others through
your self-expression and
enthusiasm. You typically
fnd it easy to brainstorm
ideas.

You love to explore. As a
result, people are attracted
to your expressive and
curious nature. You are
unlikely to be seen as
boring.

Once you know your
personalitys dormant
Advantage, youll
understand why these tasks
feel like struggling through
quicksand, and how to
avoid spending your energy
on those traps.

MY ADVANTAGES, COMPARED TO AVERAGE POPULATION
This graph shows how your personality compares with the hundreds of thousands of others who
have taken the Fascination Advantage Assessment. (For more in-depth information on your
Primary, Secondary, and Dormant Advantages, see the ADVANTAGES section of this report.)
INTENSITY OF MY ADVANTAGES
How intense is your use of each Advantage? This graph shows the intensity of each Advantage
in your personality. The scores have been normalized to a 10-point scale. The higher the score
the more intense your use of that Advantage. You use all the Advantages, but your top two
Advantages, your primary and secondary, are the ones that shape your personality brand the most.
A PIE CHART OF MY
PERCENTAGES
This chart shows the
percentage of each Advantage
in your personality.
Do you have a very high
percentage of one Advantage?
A high percentage indicates
a more consistent and
concentrated use of one
certain trait.
A COMMONLY ASKED QUESTION
What if I have the same percentage
for multiple advantages?
The Fascination Advantage
measures your results to a tenth
of a percent. The assessment has
tie-breaker questions built into the
algorithm. Your report refects your
top two scores.

An Anthem is a very short phrase, only two or three words. Just
like an advertising tagline, your Anthem pinpoints what makes you
most valuable. This short phrase goes a long way toward a positive
impression. When youre confdent and authentic, youre more likely
to impress and infuence your listener.
The Anthem Method is very easy, because weve already done the
heavy-lifting for you. The words might already be waiting for you
inside this report.
IN OUR STUDY WITH AT&T SALES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE, EMPLOYEES
WERE 200% MORE LIKELY TO RECOGNIZE THEIR MOST VALUABLE
DIFFERENCES AFTER WRITING THEIR OWN ANTHEM.
APPLY WHAT YOUVE LEARNED SO FAR:
CREATE YOUR ANTHEM
Ever struggled to fnd
the right words to
describe yourself? For
instance, started to
introduce yourself, or
sat down to write a
resume, and then felt
uncertain about exactly
what to say?
You need a simple,
persuasive phrase to
confdently describe
how you are most
likely to add value.
And you need to
do it in roughly 9
seconds, to ft within
the average attention
span. Otherwise youll
lose your listeners
attention.
CREATE YOUR ANTHEM NOW: [NEED PRICE FROM SALLY]
Apply your Anthem to describe
yourself in a snapshot. A few
examples:
n
New business materials
n
Resume
n
LinkedIn profle
n
Website
Once you have a tagline for your
personality, you can make it
extremely easy for others to grasp
what you bring to the table.
Co-workers can quickly tap into your
top qualities.
FIND THE PERFECT WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW THE WORLD SEES YOU AT
YOUR BEST! CREATE YOUR ANTHEM NOW: HowToFascinate.com/ANTHEM
YOUR ANTHEM: THE TAGLINE FOR YOUR PERSONALITY
Heres how:
Instead of focusing
on your strengths,
describe how you are
different.
Your Archetype lights
the way to your
personalitys most
valuable differences.
The next steps is to
create your Anthem:
the tagline for your
personality.
IN OUR PILOT PROGRAM WITH UNILEVER,
EMPLOYEES WERE 34% MORE CONFIDENT
AFTER THE ANTHEM PROGRAM.
