This is the type profile for the Intuitive Logical Energiser (ILE). To see more type profiles, click here . Albert Einstein 1. Ideas ILEs are best characterised by their rampant curiosity for the latest idea to enter their heads. When they discover something new, they can intuitively grasp its potential to illuminate alternative avenues and open previously uncon sidered windows. Those ideas which are most packed with possibility entice the ILE and can capture their obsessive interest until its po tential has been fully explored. The more complex the idea and the more applicable it is to a variety of different situations, the longer the ILE's attention can be held. However, at some point another, shinier idea presents itself and the ILE will dart after the latest fascination, leaving the debris of numerous projects in their wake. ILEs tend to have a very broad range of different, unusual interests and will casually talk about these areas with others, likely coming across as...

This is the ty pe profile for the Logical Intuitive Integrator (LII). To see more type profiles, click here . Immanuel Kant 1. Laws Central to the LII is their coherent structure of laws and principles through which they formulate an understanding of the world around them. LIIs are motivated by a need to analyse and make sense of their experiences, abstracting from them certain rules or regularities and drawing them into a consistent, theoretical framework. For them, truth is the pinnacle of understanding and such truth can only be reached if everything accepted fits together and makes perfect internal sense. Only then can their structure possibly be correct. Many LIIs will be drawn to fields where they are able to make sense of the fundamentals that ordain our world, with many being found in mathematics, philosophy or even theology. Less intellectual or educated LIIs will nevertheless have an emphasis on the general principles by which they have naturally come to understand th...

Alphas are Clarity-Seeking and World-Accepting. Betas are Clarity-Seeking and World-Rejecting. Gammas are Integrity-Seeking and World-Rejecting. Deltas are Integrity-Seeking and World-Accepting. What does it mean to be Clarity-Seeking? Clarity-Seekers value Emotions (E) and Laws (L). The valuing of E makes these types appreciative of the mood or emotional atmosphere of the people surrounding them. Emphasis is placed on the sharing and showing of emotion and how those emotions affect the mood of others, with priorities given to emotions that raise and uplift how people are feeling or unite them and bring them together. It is important for emotions to be expressed clearly and openly, even exaggeratedly so that people easily 'get the message'. These types tend to associate subjective value based on how groups of people react to what is being expressed. The valuing of L makes these types appreciative of clear rules, principles and ideologies by which one lives o...

This is the profile for the Ethical Intuitive Energiser (EIE). To see more type profiles, click here . Oprah Winfrey 1. Emotions EIEs are best characterised by the bright and vibrant emotional states they experience and emit to others. For these types, the meaning of life is to feel, not merely to feel content, but to feel intensely and passionately. For them, there is no place for apathy, a lack of care or an absence of feeling. EIEs need to communicate their emotions to others through authentic self-expression, raising the surrounding emotional state by drawing people's attention to how they feel. The mood expressed is often heightened, perhaps to the dramatic, with the intent that this be the clearest, least ambiguous sign of their own emotional state. For this reason, EIEs may dislike displays from others that they think are 'shallow' or 'fake', and even when acting themselves, may see the need to believe or become what they are expressing. With this c...
