Nominations for Annual Keirsey Temperament Awards 2010

Postby keirsey on Wed Mar 03, 2010 10:19 am

We should start to make suggestions for the Temperament Awards for 2010. I need suggestions for clear Guardians, Idealists, and Rationals. Ok, you can suggest Artisans too: we won't have too much trouble recognizing them -- or -- finding them.

I'm inferring here that to qualify one must have had some significance for the preceding year?

No, for the year 2010 but Avatar came out late 2009, so it still works. *shrug*

It would be nice, but frankly I am most concerned with 1) a clear case of Temperament (or at least as clear as possible) for demonstration, 2) as known widely as possible or at least a far amount of information about the person. For example, Karen Armstrong, last year I would say she wasn't a "celebrity" (rich or beautiful) but she is known.

I'm going to guess Tiger Woods isn't in the running anymore :P

How about the internationally famous Dr. Willard Harrison Bennett for the NT nomination? ;)

Ok, here is another nomination for the Rationals: Tim Berners-Lee, the "father" of the World Wide Web. Ted Talk.

You other Temperaments -- :SP: :SJ: :NF: ? Are you being lazy, irresponsible, or insincere in your efforts in this matter? ;) I need nominations. :(

Ok, I nominate Peter Orszag. Some kind of Coordinator Rational, maybe a Fieldmarshal. He's definitely been in the news lately. An interesting anecdote:

"His epic caffeine intake concerned him until he solved the problem with typical Orszagian efficiency: he underwent genetic testing, confirmed that he could safely metabolize large amounts and happily moved on to the next worry." From http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/28/us/politics/28orszag.html?_r=4&partner=rss&emc=rss.

Lazy. :SP:

Actually, just busy, and not enough in the know to give suggestions right now. I'll try to work on that.
