Who is Ivor Kellock?
Myers Briggs Type Indicator ENTP
Quick, ingenious, good at many things. Stimulating company, alert, outspoken. May argue for fun on either side of a question. Resourceful in solving new & challenging problems.*
Saville Consulting Wave Types
Combines interpersonal skills with powerful social networks and has definite leadership impact. Gets straight to the core of a problem to find solutions.*
The Gallup Organisation Strengths Finder
Input Inquisitive. Collects things (especially information, words, facts) because of their interest. The world is exciting precisely because of its infinite variety and complexity.
Competition Rooted in comparison. Likes measurement because it facilitates comparisons.
Woo Stands for winning others over. Enjoys the challenge of meeting new people. There are no strangers, only friends yet to meet.
Self-Assurance Is similar to self-confidence. Able to take risks, able to meet new challenges, able to stake claims, and most important able to deliver. Confidence in own abilities and judgment. Like the keel of a ship, Ivor withstands many different pressures and keeps on course.
Connectedness Means that we are not isolated from one another or from the earth and the life on it. We must not exploit because we will be exploiting ourselves. A bridge builder.*
Belbin Team Member Profile
Plants are innovators and inventors and can be highly creative. They provide the seeds and ideas from which major developments spring. They are independent, clever and original. The main use of a plant is to generate new proposals and to solve complex problems. Plants are often needed in the initial stages of a project or when a project is failing to progress.
Resource Investigators are often enthusiatic, quick off the mark extraverts. They are good at communicating with people both inside and outside the company. They are natural negotiators and are adept at exploring new opportunities and developing contacts. Resource Investigators are good at exploring and reporting back on ideas, developments or resources outside the group. They have the ability to think on their feet and to probe others for information.
Shapers are highly motivated people with a lot of nervous energy and a great need for achievement. Shapers like to lead and to push others into action. If obstacles arise they will find a way round. Shapers generally make good managers because they generate action and thrive under pressure. They are excellent at sparking life into a team and are very useful in groups where political complications are apt to slow things down; inclined to rise above problems of this kind and forge ahead regardless. They are probably the most effective members of a team in guaranteeing positive action.*
Emotional Intelligence Quotient from EIQ16
Provides a single score of overall emotional intelligence.
The total score across all 16 dimensions measured by the questionnaire is based on a ten point scale linked to percentile scores.
It considers
Reading People
Using Emotions
Understanding Emotions
Managing Emotions
Scoring 8 overall; roughly speaking, this means the score is better than 80% of people who have completed the questionnaire.*
Wealth Dynamics Profile
Ivor is a Star
The STAR profile
"Creating a unique brand"
Stars get their most valuable feedback in the limelight, and find their flow while on their feet. As a result, they are able to evolve their attraction on the fly, and it is their personal magnetism that is their greatest value. As innovators, Stars have an inner confidence that drives them to step up and take the lead. However, others sometimes see this as overconfidence.
Reflecting on his outlook, Arnold Schwarzenegger comments, "I knew I was a winner back in the late sixties. I knew I was destined for great things. People will say that kind of thinking is totally immodest. I agree. Modesty is not a word that
applies to me in any way - I hope it never will."
A Star profile should not be confused with sports Stars or rock Stars, who tend to get to their position largely on talent. There are Star profiles in industries ranging from property and media to hospitality who have ended up far wealthier than the most talented entertainers by following the Star profile strategy. There are also many extremely talented entertainers who have ended
up flat broke.
Stars are naturals at creating a unique identity for themselves. It is their personal brand that attracts others. By magnifying their brand, they quickly magnify their attraction. Failed Stars do not realize this and have been attempting to build their wealth by improving their products, their systems or their teams - none of which come as naturally. Stars also get frustrated that others cannot do what they can do, and so make poor managers without the right deputies.
Successful Stars are happy to leverage on the products and platform of others in order to perform their magic. They lead from the front with their name shining in lights, while others count the receipts. Successful Stars, who share the same winning (and,
often losing!) formulas in their path to success, include Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Paul Newman and Amitabh Bachchan (India's number one Superstar).*
