Bobby Knight hasrepparttar 126351 Worker as his primary temperament style and therefore like most Workers, has a challenge with anger management. This style is often referred to as a “Workaholic or Type A” personality. When they get angry their tendency is to explode like a volcano and then get over it quickly and go about their business as if nothing had happened. Workers are aggressive, no-nonsense people who seek power and control. They are goal-oriented individuals with a practical, bottom line approach to life. The Worker is extroverted by nature.

Each ofrepparttar four primary temperament styles exhibits a body language preference and has distinctive physical characteristics that are neither gender, race nor age specific. By combining physical features and body language gestures, I have developed a system that allows me to identify a person’s primary temperament style through observation alone. This significant breakthrough allows temperament understanding to become a practical tool that doesn’t require a written evaluation and therefore can be used with everyone you meet. With a little training and effort your ability to visually recognize temperaments can become second nature and woven into all of your interactions. My system allows you to take this information out into your life and put it to practical use in your day-to-day encounters; inrepparttar 126347 boardroom, atrepparttar 126348 sales table, inrepparttar 126349 classroom, etc.
