Influencer: Identify Potential. Build. Make An Impact.

Primary Goal

To see possibilities, shape and impact the people, products, and systems around them, and persuade others to join their efforts.

Understand The Influencer

Influencers desire to help others reach their goals and realize their potential, seeing the gold in others and helping them be all they were created to be. Influencers will advance civilization through inspiration and practical dreaming, being able to build and create something from nothing.

  • An optimal work environment for Influencers is where there are a lot of new prospects and possibility-thinking is needed. They seek to have a culture that truly brings out the best in people and where mentoring and personal growth is highly valued.
  • Influencers struggle in work environments where ideas are only talked about and plans never leave the whiteboard. They need to be given freedom to share their ideas and see them implemented.
  • Influencers need to keep their tendency to over-influence in check and be careful of talking too often or in pushy ways about how others need to get onboard with their ideas. They must also keep in mind that others have important opinions and learn to create space for them to share their ideas too.
  • Influencers must be cautious of how they make investments and spend resources, as they tend to see potential in everything, even when there is little hope for something of value to be produced. To avoid disappointment and burnout they must also learn to find contentment in the ordinary and in the moment, not banking their happiness on possibilities that may never materialize.
  • If you are on a team with an Influencer, you can expect them to be charismatic and inspiring. They will often captivate people with their visions and compelling ideas that help to engage and empower others in dynamic and transformative ways.

Take the MCode Assessment

“At first when reading I was an Influencer I thought, ‘I don’t even post that much to Instagram!’ However, MCode helped me realize that being an influencer isn’t about promoting yourself, it’s about helping others to see the potential in themselves and the situations we’re in.

As a leader, I’m able to lead most effectively when I can influence my team to see the value of our shared mission and each of their unique abilities to get us there. I’ve done plenty of personality tests and strengths tests in the past, but finding the motivations behind what drives those traits allows me to see myself in a whole new light.”
