My desk tells this story

Your Thinking is Abstract and Random

You are flexible, adaptable, and creative. There's many ways that you can learn - and you're up for any of them. You relate well to other people, and you do well working in groups. You can help people communicate together and work with each other's strengths. You don't work well with people who are competitive or adversarial. You prefer to work toward a common goal... not toward conflicting goals.

What Kind of Thinker Are You?

The lady who works next to me is exactly the opposite to me in the way she goes about projects. Orderly and neat and deadline orientated.

I am disorderly, random, chaotic and intermittently deadline orientated. I amaze myself that I am still in consulting given this fatal flaw, given that deadlines are pretty important. I am very good at envisaging and framing a project and getting it kicked off. Also usually pretty hopeless at getting it completed on time or on budget. The other thing I hate to deal with is conflict and adverserial environments are a major productivity barrier.
