FIRSTMIND TALENT DISCOVERY INSIGHTS

The science behind FirstMind builds on 43 cognitive studies, 9 behavioural studies, and 1.2 million people. These studies show that the way our nerve cells are connected in our brain affects our personality and behaviour. They also found that human personality can be categorised into 34 universal talents. Each person has a unique combination of talents that determines what behaviour is most natural to them, what they can become great at, and which tasks they receive energy from working on.

THE 34 TALENTS

This graph ranks your talents and indicates your unique combination. A talent represents your consistent behaviour, feelings, and thoughts that lay the foundation for your personality and strengths. If you leverage your primary talents, you will be able to increase your performance by 200-300%, and you will get energised in your work. Conversely, when you can’t utilise your primary talents, you will be inefficient, get drained from energy and never become more than average at the task.
