Get to know the 64 types

We look at personality through 4 dimensions: energy, perception, judgment, and lifestyle. Their combinations form 16 base types, and each splits four ways by Assertive / Cautious and Goal-driven / Exploratory, for 64 types in total.

The 4 dimensions

E /I

Energy

Do you recharge by spending time with people, or by spending time on your own?

Extraverted vs. Introverted

S /N

Perception

Do you notice solid facts first, or the possibilities that lie beyond them?

Sensing vs. Intuitive

T /F

Decisions

When you're unsure, do you rely on sound logic, or on how it will affect people?

Thinking vs. Feeling

J /P

Lifestyle

Are you more comfortable deciding and moving forward, or keeping your options open?

Planning vs. Flexible

Your report also includes one more score, A (Assertive) or T (Cautious), which reflects how you relate to yourself. A types tend to have fewer emotional ups and downs, while T types tend to reflect on themselves and keep fine-tuning as they go.

One type, split four ways

Even within the same base type, how your strengths show up and how you grow depend on how you hold confidence (Assertive A / Cautious T) and what motivates you (Goal-driven G / Exploratory X). 16 base types × 4 subtypes makes 64 types in total.
