You're a Kindred Spirit!
feelings oriented / attentive / caring / thoughtful / selfless
You base your decisions on intuition, resulting in the ability to think quickly and fluidly. You are introverted, drawing energy from your internal experiences while finding group situations draining. You have a strong desire to assist those who need help and you want others to do the same.


Your Secondary Style is Mission Controller. Your Mission Controller indicates that you're solidly introverted. It also indicates that you’ve got some organization and system skills that can challenge Kindred Spirit/Go-Getters.
Gain confidence and get comfortable cultivating individual relationships at your own pace with your own Style by using any or all of our training options.
