According to the test, I was a high C, but there was a tie in my second highest between D and S. I do see some accuracy in this test, but how much I cannot say. The Conscientiousness factor does play much to my meticulous nature: my attention to detail, diplomatic attitudes, systematic rationale, and subtle preferences in terms in conflict. The personal profile also lists some of my weaknesses as well. Sometimes I do rely on someone to delegate important tasks, make quick decisions, state unpopular decisions, and encourage teamwork. Well, this is mostly because I'm quite lazy in nature. I would strongly prefer not dealing with unnecessary and annoying details. It takes an unusual amount of stress and chaos for me to break out of this shell. I have no problem taking a more dominant and direct approach in leading and managing, I just prefer not to.
Well conscientiousness does a fair job in describing a good portion of my work ethics, but I think dominance and steadiness do well in describing my work attitude. Although I can be quite lazy, I absolute loathe the idea of mediocrity and performing merely at average. Some might say that I symptoms of being a perfectionist, but I think that I'm a little too cocky and confident in my own abilities. I know that eventually this would lead me to my downfall. I'll either set the bar too high that I can no longer meet the expectation of others or I'd kill myself to achieve the goals. All of this shows implications of dominance because I often try to get immediate results, constantly accept challenges, always questioning the status quo, and I constantly try to cause action.

Even though it seems like others might see your "C" personality, it looks like underneth all of that you would not mind comming out of the shell and going for the D personality type if nessesary. I agree with you and dont like to take care of the petty annoying details, I would rather focus on the big picture.
