Count your answers, and see what type of business person you are!
If you got mostly A’s:
You are best fit as a Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This means that you are good at/enjoy dealing with numbers, and working amongst the financial side of a business would be your perfect environment!
If you got mostly B’s:
You are best fit as a Production Manager or a Sales Manager. You are more of a hands-on person, and you would enjoy being in charge of making the products you sell, or even just keeping an eye on progress and sales going on in your business!
If you got mostly C’s:
You are best fit as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO, aka Manager). You are the type of person who would thrive in an environment where you are the one in charge and you oversee all the progress other business members are making!
If you got mostly D’s:
You are best fit as a Marketing Manager. This means you are in charge of promoting your product to anyone you see as a potential customer, as well as designing your posters or Instagram posts. It would be your job to make sure that knowledge about the product or service you are trying to sell is spread amongst your community for the most sales!
