Have you ever thought that your “To Do” list could tell what your personality is like? I have to admit, it’s not top of mind when I’m working with clients, but a couple of weeks ago, I spent some time chatting with the fabulous architects, interior designers, and human resources reps at Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (WRIT) about that very notion. Though I have a degree in Psychology, I am by no means a psychologist – BUT is was super interesting to see how their personalities were revealed by how they wrote their “To Do’s” on paper. Now, will I ask for a writing sample before working with a client? Probably not. Can it help to know a client’s tendencies and learning style in order to help them get more organized? Absolutely.
This experience was a very interesting take on what we organizers focus on and I had tons of fun chatting with NBC reporter, Eun Yang (her cameraman was super nice, too!). Take a look at what I had to say to the nice ladies at WRIT and let me know what you think. Is this whole connection between “To Do” lists and personality hogwash or does it fly with you?
