Abstract
This study contributes to develop Donald Super’s and David C.McClelland’s concepts. Career development is mainly influenced by behavior style, or personality type, or a set of habits that support effective and superior performance. The result of this study maps intrinsic competencies of top management’s secretaries. These findings can be used to increase their potentials and develop their careers. It could also functions as a benchmark by employers in looking for a secretary that is engaged to her role. A descriptive quantitative method is used in this study using a strength-based assessment tool called “talents mapping’. This assessment, classifies intrinsic strengths into four clusters namely influencing, relating, thinking and striving. There were thirty respondents with more than 3 years experiences being their top management’s secretaries. The respondents showed that the dominant characteristics which excel within them are namely responsibility (53%), consistency (50%), developer (50%), includer (47%), and strategic (40%).
