Guardian

Guardian

  • Guardian is like a "model of fairness who preserves the health, balance, and values of the organization."
  • These people have a very wide source of knowledge and inspiration
  • They have a fact-checked process of decision making and avoid taking decisions in a rush
  • These people like continuity and plan out stuff very well 
  • While such a mental model of decision making might help in good times

Flexible

Flexible

  • Flexible leaders are, as the name suggests, more versatile than other types of leaders 
  • Comfortable with uncertainty, open-minded in adapting to circumstances, 
  • And willing to involve a variety of people in the decision making. They are fairly cautious when it comes to making decisions.
  • The problem with flexible leaders is that they can become too open-minded
  • Looking at all the potential issues, solutions, and outcomes and often running into analysis paralysis.
  • Setting up deadlines and moving one step at a time can help facilitate such a mental model

Catalyst

Catalyst

  • The catalyst is an excellent person to lead the work of groups, whether making decisions or implementing them.
  •  They are quite balanced and neutral in their thought process. 
  • The more extreme the necessary decision, the more they can naturally resist inherent biases.
  • That said, being middle of the road can yield only average results. 
  • To avoid that, a catalyst should watch for circumstances that require high-stakes decisions 
  • And realize that they may need a different type of decision process, like having a team look at the situation and suggest potential approaches.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.
