MFS Personal Interests, Attitudes and ValuesTM
The WHY of your Actions
What is it that causes you to move into action? What are the drivers of your behavior? What activities, careers and conversations inspire a “passion” within you, causing you to want to become involved? The MFS Personal Interests, Attitudes and ValuesTM Assessment measures the WHY of your actions, leading to an understanding of the drivers of your behavior and the attitudes that move you into action.
- Once you know the attitudes that drive your actions, you will immediately be able to understand the causes of conflict. If you are in a career you are enjoying, or if you are finding little satisfaction in your career, you will understand why.
- You will understand and appreciate your relationships as you recognize the attitudes of other people. You will see how their attitudes might interact with your own.
What is an Attitude?
Attitudes are a type of window through which we view the world and seek fulfillment in our lives. If we are participating in a discussion, activity, or career that is in line with our attitudes, we will value the experience. Conversely, if we are in a conversation, activity or career that is against our dominant attitudes, we will be indifferent or even negative toward the experience, possibly causing stress.
The Six Attitudes
- Theoretical: A passion to discover, systematize and analyze; a search for knowledge.
- Utilitarian: A passion to gain return on investment of time, resources and money.
- Aesthetic: A passion to experience the impressions of the world and achieve form and harmony in life; self actualization.
- Social: A passion to eliminate hate and conflict in the world and to assist others in becoming all they can be.
- Individualistic: A passion to achieve position and to use that position to affect and influence others.
- Traditional: A passion to seek out and pursue the higher meaning in life and achieve a system for living.
