It works better if you have a whole pool of resources with different strengths to call upon. When the results were in, I met with the person who administered it and one of the things it showed, other than the fact that I ranked very high in administration, was that I work best on short-term projects where I can see the end in sight.

Knowing assistants and having a working relationship with them is very important and can make the difference when you need to set up a meeting or if your boss needs to have a quick phone call with their boss. They are a valuable resource and I appreciate them. I have found this practice to pay off big just when you need it!
