You are a Factual.Factual Style Definition
Characteristics: Logical, dependable, conservative, informed
Personal philosophy: It is important
Evaluates others by: Work ethic, ability to be logical, respect shown for others
Leads others by: Providing structure, processes, and security
Fears: Being wrong, losing respect or influence, failing to achieve personal standards
Reacts to stress by: Withdraws, demands perfection, works slower
Motivated by: Respect and recognition, autonomy, logic and facts
Shape interpretation
Because your shape encompasses nearly all the quadrant, you are challenged to think outside of the box and
relate to other people and ideas that are not typical of your own experience.
Your low Directive and Affiliative scores make you exhibit behavior very similar, in most situations, to those
in the E (Efficient) and L (Loyal) quadrants.
If your triangle shape fills only half of the quadrant, your challenge is to flex both your Directive and
Affiliative capabilities according to the situation needs and when working with styles different from your own.
Conversation strategies:
Because of your low directive and Affiliative scores, you can sometimes be reserved and shy. Draw on the
strengths and outgoing styles of the Social and Loyal to help you become more open and approachable.
Your affinity for facts and information can make you too long-winded at times. When communicating with
the Efficient, state your point succinctly and give bottom line results.
The Social style is in direct contrast to yours and can frustrate you the most. You see little need for social
conversation and can lack the diplomacy and tact needed to gain support for your ideas. When
communicating with the Social, give your undivided attention and recognize his or her accomplishments
and ideas.
Work effectiveness strategies:
Because of your low Directive and Affiliative scores, you work best alone. Conversely, you sometimes isolate
yourself when you need to work and communicate more closely with others. Make a conscious effort to ask
others for advice and assistance.
Like the Loyal style, you can be very slow and even passive when making decisions. When working together,
you setdeadlines and use outside counsel to help you reach decisions in order to keep projects on track.
You are very logical and analytical. But rather than share information, you will wait to be recognized by
others. To be more effective with all styles, learn how to confidently speak out, share information, and take an
independent position when needed.
