The answers below indicate the Inner Genius Styles for this question.*

If you were to get a new supervisor,
what would you suggest they not do?

 Please don’t overwhelm me with too many issues or details.
RED
Please don’t take advantage of my tendency to take on extra duties. GOLD
Please don’t be too critical or judgmental of me – or others. BLUE
Please don’t try to control me.
GREEN

Your answer was GREEN: "Please don't try to control me."

Green Geniuses can't stand being controlled.  They prefer to be given a challenge and figure out the solution themselves.  If you supervise a Green Genius, it's important to recognize their approach to solving problems and accomplishing tasks.  If you try to control or micromanage them, watch out!  Either they'll challenge you, do it their own way anyway or get frustrated and burned out.
