General Description

Rebellious, dissatisfied, and drawn to conflict, often manifested in protests and uprisings. Propose their own 'more correct' program or idea, much like ideologists of the quadra, often sacrificing peace. Intense and gifted, inspiration by an idea reveals talents and abilities. When emotions ignite, feel capable of anything, achieving much in virtually any field. Might think, 'What is socionics? What typology? I can be any type! Just need to want it. I can play anyone. I can be an introvert and an Extravert'. Easily assume inspiring roles, immersing themselves in any role, truly believing, and succeeding. Possess a well-developed fantasy, envisioning complex images often detached from reality, yet believing in them. Match reality with these images, believing in the images more than reality. Imagination leads to exaggeration, often worsening rather than lessening, usually exaggerating the negative more than the good, but capable of elevating the good. Constantly comparing everything to an ideal in the head. Cannot remain silent, often opposing themselves to others. Among the least accommodating, viewing themselves as exceptions to the rules: 'Why should I do this? After all, I'm like this...' (imagination fuels these thoughts, leading away from reality). Hard to negotiate with, only someone who can firmly insist on their standpoint and resist provocations can handle their emotional intensity and turn it towards greater realism. Everything starts with emotions, possessing deep emotional capacity. Express feelings diversely, sensing others' moods well, knowing how to present themselves (or something) to make an impression, managing external expression. Frequently switch from drama to affirmation, creating 'swings' from negative to positive emotions, often acting to surprise or shock. If negative emotions are expected, might suddenly show positive ones, or vice versa. Know how to persuade, choosing words and themes that strike a chord, never indifferent. Ironic, prone to mocking what is funny, illogical, incorrect, absurd, flawed. Outraged by injustice, deeply affected by it, remembering unfair grievances for a long time. As a guide, encourage people to reveal their abilities, creating an atmosphere that convinces, inspires, explains, or ignites, so people lose fear of taking action and reveal abilities, not individually but in a group. Sense danger and warn (in dramatic tones), prepare for negativity in advance, plan contingency scenarios. Despite extroversion, periodically enjoy solitude to reflect on life's meaning, justice, and the future, viewing problems from a global perspective, as a struggle of irreconcilable forces. Born for a romantic fight for justice ideals, finding mundane tasks, like building or sweeping, contrasting sharply with their sense of human purpose, fostering great pessimism, leading to cynicism (mocking and deriding everything around as senseless). 'Humans have such capabilities, and yet what are they doing? Some nonsense.' The goal (mission) is to rally people for a major cause, needing significant tasks to feel satisfied and fulfilled. Face difficulties in realizing ideas, tend to systematize information in their area of interest and structure it around their goal/idea. Current mundane problems oppress, following health too poorly or too meticulously. Extremes in appearance management (either very meticulous or not caring at all). May dress very aristocratically (both men and women) or very simply. Sensitive and primed exclusively for polite interaction, vulnerable. Harshness or coercion cannot be applied. Make demands, make remarks. In diet, tend to combine foods with contrasting flavors.

As a leader

This type of leader is highly emotional, and the more responsibilities taken on, the more intense the emotional outbursts, often surprising those around them. Naturally possessing excellent public speaking skills, this leader can motivate and inspire people. Often assuming organizational roles, they function as both a frontline and hierarchical leader. This leader may promote an idea as something novel or push the system to align with their goals, using forceful methods of influence to establish order. In business, personal factors and sympathies are considered, creating an image of a reliable and business-like partner. Loyalty remains as long as constructive outcomes are seen in the alliance. Persistence wanes where no prospects or potential harm to the business are perceived. Situations are foreseen and negative consequences anticipated, thus preferring project-based collaborations. Idealistic and principled initially, this leader seeks a 'partner' in business. Over time, realizing the complexity of business, they might find it easier to create their own system rather than being part of someone else's. As a leader with a clear and personal vision, imposing a different perspective is difficult, often leading to ideological misunderstandings. Relationships with subordinates are built on hierarchy, achieving great success through emotional influence. Inspiring and motivational, this leader celebrates successes, stays during tough times, empathizes, and feels responsible for others. Intolerance is directed towards those who hinder endeavors. Motivation is provided through positive approval, smiles, joy, and support, creating psychological comfort and a sense of support. People are brought into a resourceful state, with approaches tailored to each individual, understanding their triggers. The needs of the group are sensed, striving to fulfill people's desires and creating conditions where individuals feel special. Poor reactions occur to situations that harm plans and disrupt the work process, with a dislike for being thrown off track. In conflict, this leader is uncompromising, defending viewpoints even if they contradict norms, and protecting their own, sometimes at great risk.

As an employee

Emotional, finely attuned to the emotions and moods of others, with a wide range of emotional expressions from exalted to ironic. Farsighted, they forewarn of negative situations and motivate to solve problems in advance. Know what to do and how to prevent negative outcomes. Believe in people's abilities and talents and is good at motivating and leading. Have broad humanitarian interests. They find it hard to maintain emotional balance, become overly emotional about situations, and appreciate people around who can help stabilize and view things soberly. However, they don't let everyone get close, maintaining distance and hierarchy. Self-loving and sensitive, they can react sharply and negatively to poorly delivered criticisms, especially about their appearance. Hold grudges. Best to convey information calmly and correctly to avoid intense negative reactions. Distance is normal for their sociotype. A sign of closeness might be seeking support, protection, and advice from you. Respects those who can defend their opinion. Have a dynamic personality, which can lead to a somewhat chaotic approach at work. Active and capable of doing a large amount of work in a short time if resourced. Have a tendency to 'spread out over time' or delay, imposing their own time frames—do not agree with this! Responsible for their work, but need clear timelines and goals set to focus attention and better organize, making their work more productive.

Recommendations:

Work requiring creative freedom is necessary. This role should allow the demonstration of abilities and talents, fulfilling the need to be unique. The job should be enjoyable and give a sense of progression. Constant improvement and self-development are crucial.
