(It is safe to say that this gifting and calling has extremes. Seriously. Those who identify with MOST of these signs have, currently do, or probably will serve in some type of executive administrative position with a high level of responsibility. Often, they will lead other administrators or significant administrative processes. Those who may feel that they are administrators but are not functioning at extremes in these areas could simply be in an exploratory or developing phase for this particular anointing. Then, there are people who simply function in these capacities out of necessity or while in a season of grace to fulfill an assignment but may not have a calling. There are many people that fall into that category.)
