What Does It All Mean?
B You
As a Type B, you have some inherent super powers that can make you an amazing leader! Don’t underestimate your natural abilities to communicate, organize, and create. You don’t have to try to keep up with the “Alphas” and morph into someone you are not to be an effective and inspiring leader. It is all a part of the Art of B-ing!
What Is The Difference Between Type A and Type B Personalities?
Although there is not a precise science behind personality type theory, and rarely are individuals completely given over to one type over another, here are some generalities to assist you in identifying with your type:
Type A
According to this theory, people falling under the blanket term of this personality type have two major characteristics: time urgency and free-floating hostility. These people are go-getters who do not rest until they achieve their tasks. Usually, they take up more work than they can handle. They are driven by ambition and preoccupied by time management. Such individuals gain little or no joy after achieving their goals. They are in a constant race against time and quickly become impatient with delays, unproductive time and other inconveniences. It was also theorized that such individuals tend to lose their temper easily and harbor open or secret hostilities towards others. A good thing about these people is that they are achievers in everything that they get themselves into and have the ability to succeed even in ventures they know nothing about due to their competitiveness and challenging spirit. They are highly efficient, risk takers and have more persistent as well as practical approach to any problem.
Fields like business, entrepreneurship, management, etc. usually appeal to such personalities. However, keep in mind that certain jobs create more environmental stress which plays a major role in pushing these individuals towards achievement-driven thinking.
Type B
The type B personality people are quite the opposite of the type A personality individuals. These people are patient to a large extent, are easygoing and take things slowly and steadily. They do not believe in rushing into things, take time to think and ponder before acting and may also delay their work to the last minute. These people love to socialize and be in the company of both known and unknown people. They often manage to grab attention wherever they go, and seek comfort, more than success while working. They are also known to strike a balance between their professional and personal life. Known as the socializers, these individuals are predominantly ‘thinkers’ rather than ‘doers’. They are more in touch with their creative side and usually are not stressed by the lack of achievements.
You may find the type B personality in advertising, marketing, event planning, travel consulting and other creativity-oriented fields. However, these individuals are known to adapt themselves in any fields with considerable ease.
