Introverted/Head
This is how you react in this conflict:
Introverted and “From the head”:
Essentially, i.e. under relaxed conditions, you are a “reliable doer”.
Under stress, however, when you feel overcharged, you often react like a “busy bee”.
We describe some of the most prominent features for this type of stress typology in the following:
Under stress, you tend to display the following behaviour:
- Know-it-all attitude
- Pessimism
- Scepticism
- Analysing
- Withdrawal
- In extreme cases, compulsive, perfectionist, and unyielding
- In case of escalation, you often have the following thoughts or feelings: “I always have to take care of everything, it’s too much to bear.”
Your motivation, your wish is to:
- Do the right thing and get things done.
What you want to avoid, what you mostly fear:
- Criticism
- Refusal
- Aggression
Your stressors, i.e. behaviour that stresses you:
- Motivation attempts, i.e. when people try to motivate me
- Excuses or pretexts
- Empty promises
- Verbal attacks
- Accusations
In future, your motto in challenging situations should be:
- Allow for greater contact and more feelings under stress.
Our recommendation for you to better achieve your potential:
- Try to better understand what is going on inside you
- Move from the rational to the emotional, into sensing
- Open yourself to new things
