The Teacher Idealist: On Success

[Architron]

Teacher Idealist + Large # of Crafter Artisans = recipe for success?
...or a recipe for total and complete brutal domination?

Not mutually exclusive.

shaken or stirred?

from what i understand, it's a matter of taste.

Champion + Crafter = even better. They will intersect rather than interlink, makes the relationship run smoother.

Sorry, gonna have to play the old Artisan "too abstract for me" card and ask what you mean by 'intersect' and 'interlink'. Sounds interesting, though.

These last few posts have been rather entertaining.

I'm using the newest Keirsey terms found in Brains and Careers. CoWorkers and Contendors intersect with their actions meaning they do similar things as their corrispondents like a doubles team in tennis (when one moves to the net so does the other, ect.) While Initiators and Responders interlink, meaning they do different, complementary actions; one leap froging over the other.

Crazy!

I'm definitely gonna have to get that book. I keep putting it off because I'm trying to save whatever money I can, but I've been seeing now more than ever how beneficial it can be.

if this person on youtube is not an idealist, then I'm an orange.

Took these observations down, bit creepy gathering info on everyday folks.

I just realized that what the Director of Admin (my boss' boss) is always instructing in our division meetings strictly follows John Wooden's pyramid. He gave the pyramid to us when he first started here and I believe he said he'd read Wooden's Teamwork book? I'd wondered (before even realizing this thread existed) if he was a Rational or an Idealist.

Do you think that a concrete type could try so hard to follow a Teacher's way so closely?

I dunno, you think a team of crafters could?

That's the Teacher's job, to get people to follow a certain path. Give us a concrete plan and we'll use it. As long as we can apply it simply and easily. I think it probably applies more to the roles, though. As an Initiator I tend to naturally feel that the plans of most others won't float so I come up with my own. Sometimes their plans do work, but I just have to do it my own way.

But if I do find that your plan DOES have widespread results that actually work, if I like it enough I WILL follow it step-by-step. Adding my own flair, though, of course.

Otherwise I'll probably either just adopt certain parts of it, intentionally do it out of order to be more efficient or totally screw it up in the process.
