Classification temperament produced two and a half thousand years ago, Hippocrates, was the alphabet of modern psychology.The ability of facial expression, gestures, and sometimes the constitution to predict possible human response to a particular situation arises it is very important for any leader or cadre.Possession of this skill allows you to properly allocate responsibilities in the team, assigned to work each according to his abilities.
merit of Hippocrates is that he single out the main types of human characters.There are four in the clean, refined form each of them extremely rare, but some are usually prevalent, affecting the ability to work on the election with respect to the work and to determine the psychological climate.
most enjoyable "in all respects" team members considered sanguine.At first glance, their advantages are so high that people like you can just admire.Some managers sometimes think that other types of human characters are not necessary, it would be desirable to assemble a team of some sanguine.They are creative, always bryzzhut new ideas all get along because of the natural sociability, friendly, optimistic, witty, adaptable to change, and very energetic.However, after looking closer to the sanguine, it is easy to detect serious deficiencies.The ability to get involved in a new idea logically combined with the rapid loss of interest in it, and hence the lack of desire to pursue the case.Sanguine is very good as a generator of ideas and most creative artists work sites.
Phlegmatic seem full of their complete opposite - a sort of bumpkin, all doing slowly and gradually.Talking in general they do not like rare gesture and got used to any lifestyle, any change in it perceived as hostile interference.This passivity, at first glance seemingly bad feature, in fact, is a very valuable quality.Phlegmatic plodding and methodical ability to work can find a very good use for hard work, when other types of characters people can hardly fit.It may be rare loafer, but is capable of becoming a true hard worker, it all depends on the ability to correctly set the task manager.
Melancholic seem not very good acquisition for the team.They combine the slowness with unbalanced and temper, and for all his irritability usually very lazy.Melancholic easy to offend, it is not wanting.Initiative - zero, but perekalamutit their grumbling the whole team for it - a piece of cake.But the rush to get rid of such an employee should not be.Melancholic are very talented and when they are valued, can work wonders.This is not a workhorse, and trotters, they just need to be able to manage.
Choleric energetic and extremely active, it is impossible to imagine somewhere on the edge, but not in the thick of things.The ability to quickly navigate the situation and make a decision, albeit not always optimal, perseverance and the will to bringing any case before the end of a combination of aggression and temper, and self-confidence with arrogance.The mood changes very often.Choleric not able to hold back, but quickly fade after the outburst.As a rule, subordinate chiefs like these, if they are smart, and hate, if not.And this, alas, happens, choleric fool - this is a terrible leader.
These are the major types of human characters.Among them there is good and bad, everything in nature is rational.Just happens that a person is not in place, and most of it he is the first to suffer.
modern psychiatry considers the types of character accentuation according to the theory of a German professor Karl Leonhard, but the basis of this classification is a priori pathological anyone.Despite the vagueness of the boundary separating the sick from the healthy, we want to believe that most of the people around us is still normal.
