Type E - 'Field Marshall'

'Field Marshalls' are great leaders and decision makers. They are ingenious thinkers and long term planners. They are logical and analytical which makes them good at reasoning. Type E's are driven to achieve competence and can naturally spot flaws and see how to improve things.

They strive to perfect systems rather than accept them. They value truth and are convinced only by logical reasoning. Type E's continually learn new things and are more interested in future consequences than current situations. They are frank, take charge and are good organizers of people because they have the ability to see ahead and then communicate their vision to others. They live by strict rules and push themselves (and others).

Possible downside:
Type E's can easily make decisions too hastily and would do well to slow down. They are action oriented and can be tough, blunt, impatient and insensitive when they don't see the logic in a the feelings of others. They can be domineering, argumentative and dictatorial. They have an impersonal approach to life and have little time for tolerance, compassion and emotion. "Field Marshalls' can however explode emotionally when feelings are held in too ling. They would do well to give their emotions a constructive outlet which in turn would allow them to stay more in control, a position they enjoy.
