Giorgio Fontana Insight Discovery Profile Summary
Giorgio Fontana Insight Discovery Profile Summary
Seen by many as a gifted and natural leader, he has an entrepreneurial rather than a functional
management style. Giorgio likes to make things happen and drive everything around him.
Decision Making
Optimistic, spontaneous, creative and confident, he has an original mind and a strong sense of the
possible.
Occasionally a non-conformist, Giorgio is good at seeing new ways of doing things. He is happiest
in a role which allows him to exercise his ingenuity to tackle one project after another.
To carry out his innovative ideas, Giorgio relies on his impulsive energy. He is a keen initiator who
finds most problems stimulating. Open-minded, curious and insightful, Giorgio has excellent
long-range vision.
Blind Spots
Because he is fascinated with solving problems, he tends to be impatient with routine details. He
would much rather engage in quick intellectual banter than complete some mundane task.
His natural quickness and pressure to anticipate what is coming means he occasionally assumes
wrongly that he knows what a person is going to say, and is tempted to jump in to finish their
sentences.
Becoming more aware of what is around him and relying more on proven information may help
him root his creative ideas in the real world.
