Thinker Cultures

Thinker Cultures

Which of the following Thinker characteristics listed below match individuals you know with cultural roots similar to those discussed above?

Me?? I have always fallen Far Far into the thinker quadrant. Every personality test I take shows me about 80% in this area, with a little teeny part in each other quadrant. I would say most of the following characteristics describe me. If you have never done one of these, try them. They can be interesting, revealing and even sometimes fun. This particular description comes from Tony Alessandra.

careful--methodical and cautious; don't jump into things initially.
precise--need to be accurate, so they check and recheck in their effort to find
the right or best available answer.
proper-- more formal, discreet, and inclined to allow others to be in their own space, expecting the same for themselves.
private--keep thoughts to themselves; do not willingly disclose their own or
others' thoughts and feelings.
reserved--somewhat formal and cool; take time to get to know them--they have few close relationships.
logical--process-oriented seekers of reason.
inventive--like to see things in new or unique ways; often have a unique perspective that includes or addresses both themselves and others.
contemplative--introverted and reflective, they ponder both the "why" and "how" elements in situations.

I'm thinking ... Yeah I will just sit and watch Rick work to put up the tent. I was cross stitching if you can't tell. Go thinkers!! (except... Rick is a thinker too. That issue is for another day.)
