The Craftsperson

You'd rather make than discuss. Give you a real problem, a set of tools, and a few hours of quiet, and you'll come back with something that works — and probably looks better than the spec asked for. You don't love meetings, you don't love brainstorming, and you really don't love being told what "the vision" is before someone has tried building anything. Hands-on, pragmatic, low-drama. Where this archetype shines: engineering, design, the kind of solo or small-team work where the proof is the artifact rather than the slide deck, repair and restoration roles, anything where the gap between knowing and doing is short. Your blind spot: the world doesn't always reward people who deliver quietly. Sometimes the work has to be narrated as well as done — and that part isn't optional, even for craftspeople. To grow: spend a small amount of effort describing what you built and why, in writing, before moving on. The craft is the work; the story is what lets the work travel.
