Are You a Risk-Taker or Risk-Avoider?
Discover your risk personality in minutes
Everything we do involves some degree of risk: starting something new, speaking up or making a change. Yet how we feel about risk varies greatly from person to person. Some of us are energised by uncertainty, eager to leap into the unknown. Others feel more at ease with stability, preferring to build on what’s already secure and familiar.
Neither style is better. The key to growth lies in understanding your natural approach to risk — and learning how to balance it. When you know whether you lean towards caution or courage, you can make choices that stretch you without overwhelming you.
There are four risk types and two risk attitudes:
Risk types
Reckless (High risk, Low gain)
Entrepreneurial (High risk, High gain)
Opportunistic (Low risk, High gain)
Cautious (Low risk, Low gain)
Risk attitudes
Risk-Taking
Risk-Avoiding
