This 3-Second Test Tells You Whether You’re A Leader Or a Follower

Personality tests are usually long and complicated involving head-scratching multiple choice questions.  But not this one. Two US academics reckon you can determine whether you are a leader or a follower in 3 seconds with this simple test. Adam Galinsky and Maurice Schweitzer are the authors of Friend and Foe - an examination of leadership. As part of their research, the pair devised this simple test as a means to determine how power affects people's behaviour. Here's the test. Draw the letter E with your finger on your forehead. Finished? If you drew the E backwards so that only you can read it, you are a "self-focused" leader. If you drew it so that others can read it, you are more likely to follow. There's your new party piece sorted. Hat Tip: i100
