This is a look at six interpersonal styles of behavior; Driver, Expressive, Amiable, Analytical, Organizer and Facilitator, and how they work together. They are derived from the three fundamental energies of our life, which are our mind, heart and body. Our basic energies are:
| Physical, Emotional Intellectual |
| and their combinations: |
| Physo-Emotional, Physo-Intellectual, Emo-Intellecutal. |
This triad of energies are the dynamic forces that influence our lives, our nations and our world.
Unlike Kalarhythms of the United States (see introduction) which studies how these energies move with Cyclic influence to change the nation, Kalarhythms & Interpersonal Behavior looks at how these basic energies manifest in us as individuals to create six personality archetypes. All of us tend to incorporate traits these six style types in some form or another. How we do so, and how we interact with others is the subject of this work.
1. Basic Principles defines Physical, Emotional and Intellectual energies and how they influence personality traits. Three dichotomies of traits are also listed as Passive/Active, Inward/Outward, and Simple/Complex. Working models are given to display the basic energies in geometric form along with polar dichotomies.
2. The Six Styles are different personality types that develop from the influence the three basic energies and their combinations. Depending on whether one is more Physically based, Emotionally based or Intellectually based, or somewhere in between, one may be a Driver, Expressive, Analytical, Facilitator, Organizer or Amiable. What's your style? Read this section and see what suites you best.
3. Managing Styles suggests methods on how to address persons of different styles, and how to adjust your presentation based on how your are perceived. This section offers balance of interaction and how to get your ideas across effectively.
4. Related Works shows how the basis for personality models used today is nothing new. From ancient Sanskrit to Greek philosophy, Medieval medicine and modern psychology, the same models of understanding character have been handed down with different names. See how history holds deeper understanding for the lines of wisdom we inherit.
Learning about ourselves can be fun and interesting as it puts everyday interaction in a whole new light. Know how to make friends and influence people just by understanding the power of a few basic principals. The doors are open.
