Exercise: Convergent/Divergent Thinking Assessment

The following are forced-choice questions. People will do both at times. Choose the response that is most characteristic of your natural tendency or behavior, not what you think you should do, or how you’ve trained yourself to do something. Do not analyze the questions, but simply put down your first response to them. Circle either A or B.

1. When studying an unfamiliar subject, I:

a. Gather information by exploring many areas relating to the topic.

b. Stay focused with the information on the central topic.

2. Given the time and opportunity, I prefer:

a. To know a little about a great many subjects.

b. Become an expert in one subject area.

3. When studying from a textbook or manual, I:

a. Skip ahead and read chapters out of sequence that have special interest to me.

b. Work systematically from one chapter to the next, not moving on to the next chapter until I’ve understood what I’ve read.

4. When asking other people for information about some subject of interest, I:

a. Tend to ask broad questions that call for rather general answers.

b. Tend to ask narrowly focused questions that require specific answers.

5. When browsing in a bookstore or library, I:

a. Roam around looking at books on many different subjects.

b. Stay more or less in one place looking at books on just a few subjects that interest me.

6. I am better at remembering:

a. General principles.

b. Specific facts.

7. When given an assignment or task, I:

a. Prefer to have background information that’s not directly related to the task but may give a context for the work.

b. Prefer to only concentrate on having strictly relevant information for performing the work.

8. In training people for new jobs, I would have the training program:

a. Expose the person to a wide variety of skills and information about the company and its programs as well as the new job.

b. Focus the training on just the skills the person needs to perform at a high level in their new job.

9. When I go on vacation, I prefer to:

a. Spend a short amount of time in several different places.

b. Stay in just one place the whole time and really get to know it.

10. When driving to a location in a new city from my hotel, I prefer:

a. Looking at a map and getting a general overview of where I am going.

b. Have someone give me detailed instructions on how to get from my hotel to the destination.

11. When working on a project, I prefer:

a. Valuing the importance of the details but having someone else manage them as I focus on broader issues.

b. Controlling the details of the reports and other data that will determine the success or failure of the project.

12. Given that both are important, in managing within an organization I prefer:

a. Developing strategy.

b. Developing operational plans.
