Are You Easily Swayed by Other People’s Opinions?
Test Question: How would you communicate with the barber about your haircut?
A:
B:
C:
D:
A: Show the barber photos of celebrities or models as a reference
After seeing the politics and deception that can happen at work, you tend to have trouble trusting others. You approach other people’s opinions with skepticism, making it hard for anyone to influence you. Based on your experience, you believe there are no true friends in the workplace—you can only rely on yourself—and no one is likely to change your mind.
B: Ask the barber for suggestions
You have a realistic grasp of workplace dynamics. Unless the person is someone you deeply trust and consider a close partner, their opinion isn’t likely to sway you. If it’s someone you don’t know well, it’s even harder for them to influence your thinking.
C: Bring lots of photos from magazines or fashion spreads and have the barber help you choose
You often struggle with direction, and even a casual comment can influence your decisions. You’re easily swayed by others’ opinions and frequently change your original ideas. As a result, what you planned can end up becoming someone else’s idea, and you may hand over control without realizing it.
D: Describe the hairstyle you want
You’re easygoing and don’t care much for rigid rules. However, when it comes to things you’re passionate about, you get very invested and want to stay in control—no one can change your mind. On the other hand, for matters that feel trivial or uninteresting to you, you’re not particular about who makes the decision.
