Amber at work

Ambers often enjoy roles where people and ideas meet: teaching, sales, hosting, community building, creative brainstorming, anything with variety and an audience. Long solitary detail work drains them. In teams they lift morale and connect people; they do best with a simple system for follow-through and a teammate who enjoys the finishing stage.
