What does the three letter acronym of DNA stand for? I wish it stood for Dynamic Natural Abilities since that would have made this article easier.  We all kind of know what DNA is, but in researching for this blog post, I actually had to look up the definition.  According to Wikipedia (if you treat that as a reliable source), Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a molecule that encodes the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms. These little things are encoded in our bodies and make us who we are….could they also guide and drive our personality, skills and behaviors?

DNA – Are these innate or learned behaviors? Do we naturally fall into more of a sourcing role, or recruiter / account management role, based on our DNA?
