Warrior

Warrior individuals are most fulfilled when they can rise to and overcome a challenge. Naturally determined, achievement-oriented, and focused, they enjoy demonstrating a winning attitude and often can motivate others to achieve their goals. They’re usually excited and challenged by the opportunity to prevail against the odds.

Warrior organizations normally are very successful at producing consistent results; creating teams and systems that fulfill objectives; and giving their all to achieve a goal.

Warrior types need to be careful about seeing others as enemies; responding to stress by working harder and harder; and rushing to action instead of thinking things through.

Subtypes include:

• Dragon slayer: Energized by besting adversaries
• Crusader/rescuer: Emphasizes making a difference for others
• Achiever: Consistently produces results and succeeds through discipline/focus
• Coach: Shapes individual or team performance by bringing out the best in others
• Competitor/winner: Energized by overcoming obstacles and competing with others
• Hero: A popular term for the Warrior, although all in this system are heroic
