We all have a bit of a sheep, a duck, and a rooster inside us,

influencing how we show up in any given moment when conversations feel bad.

Find out where you lean, and how coaching can help.

Answer each question honestly. Choose the option that sounds most like you. Don’t overthink it. It’s all in good fun.

1. In a difficult conversation, you usually:

A) Stay quiet or soften what you really want to say
B) Think about it a lot, but delay saying anything
C) Say it directly, even if it might land hard

2. After a meeting, you’re most likely to think:

A) “I should have said something…”
B) “I need more time to figure out what to say.”
C) “I said what needed to be said.”

3. When tension rises, you tend to:

A) Keep the peace and avoid making things worse
B) Stay composed on the outside, but process it internally
C) Address it head-on, quickly

4. When something isn’t working, you:

A) Adjust yourself rather than call it out
B) Wait and observe before acting
C) Call it out right away

5. Others might describe your communication as:

A) Thoughtful, but sometimes too accommodating
B) Calm and steady, but hard to read
C) Clear and direct, but sometimes blunt

Your Results

Count how many A’s, B’s, and C’s you chose:

• Mostly A’s → 🐑 Sheep
  You keep the peace, but sometimes at your own expense.

• Mostly B’s → 🦆 Duck
  You stay composed, but can hold things in too long.

• Mostly C’s → 🐓 Rooster
  You speak up, but it doesn’t always land the way you intend.

The goal isn’t to change who you are.

It’s to know when to lean into your strength and when to adjust. It’s about finding a balance between all three.
