'Administrators' are great at getting things done and make things happen. They are responsible and faithful to their commitments. They can remember and organize details well. They are systematic about setting and achieving goals on schedule. Type I's are driven to make good decisions and often base them on past experiences. 

This type of person is logical, objective and realistic and matter-of-fact. They are more interested in 'real things' than intangibles. They tend not to be interested in subjects they feel have no practical application. Because they live by a set of rules, they are consistent and reliable. They tend to be traditional and are consistent in their relationships. They are outgoing, sociable, direct and friendly and are usually easily to get to know.

Possible downside:
They can be seen as dictatorial when they attempt to impose their standards of behavior on others. Being logical and impersonal analysts, they don't naturally see the impact of their decisions on others and can be seen as cold and uncaring. Type I's don't show their appreciation of others well, and would do well to offer compliments and praise.

Sometimes 'Administrators' jump to conclusions without gathering all information. They don't naturally ask 'what if', so they often miss possible meanings, implications, connections and patterns. They would do well to consciously delay making decisions until they have considered more information.
