Section: List bullet points:

Strengths  Knowledgeable – Debaters rarely pass up a good opportunity to learn something

new, especially abstract concepts. The newly learnt information isn’t usually absorbed
for any planned purpose as with dedicated studying, people with the Debater
personality type just find it interesting.

 Charismatic – People with the Debater personality type have a way with words and
wit that others find intriguing. Their confidence, quick thought and ability to connect
different ideas in novel ways create a style of communication that is charming, even
entertaining, and informative at the same time.

 Quick Thinkers – Debaters have incredibly flexible minds, and are able to shift from
one idea to another without effort, drawing on their accumulated knowledge to prove
their points, or their opponents.

Weaknesses  Can Find It Difficult to Focus – The same flexibility that allows Debaters to come up
with such original plans and ideas makes them readapt perfectly good ones far too
often, or to even drop them entirely as the initial excitement wanes and newer
thoughts come along. Boredom comes too easily for Debaters, and fresh thoughts are
the solution, though not always a helpful one.
  Very Argumentative – If there’s anything Debaters enjoy, it’s the mental exercise of
debating an idea, and nothing is sacred. More consensus-oriented personality types
rarely appreciate the vigor with which Debater personalities tear down their beliefs and
methods, leading to a great deal of tension.

 Insensitive – Being so rational, Debaters often misjudge others feelings and push
their debates well past others’ tolerance levels. People with this personality type don’t
really consider emotional points to be valid in such debates either, which magnifies
the issue tremendously.

Friendships  Loyalty, support, or emotional feedback are not what Debaters look for in their
& friendships. They look for someone who is honest with them — the last thing they
Relationships want to hear is “you’re right” unless they feel like they have earned that distinction
through an intellectual debate.

 Debaters test their compatibility with potential friends.

 Debaters are extremely good at communicating with friends and acquaintances of

other personality types.

 They are inclined to suppress their emotions and feelings. If a friend needs a shoulder
to cry on, they have no idea how to handle the situation. However, they can offer an
array of rational and logical solutions to the problem.

Career Paths  Debaters have the benefit of being naturally engaged and interested in being
productive and helpful. But rather than the sort of people-oriented helpfulness that
Diplomat personality types bring to the table, Debater personalities are focused on
developing solutions to interesting and diverse technical and intellectual problems.
Debaters are a versatile personality type, and while it may take time for them to get to
a point where they can fully utilize their skillset and qualities, they are likely to find that
those qualities translate well into pretty much any career that so much as piques their
interest.

 Not every career allows this level of unbridled brainpower, but there are those that
demand nothing but: entrepreneurship, engineering, even acting and
photography.

Workplace  Debaters have straightforward expectations in the workplace, but ones that aren’t
Habits always easy to meet.

 Strong believers in meritocracy, people with the Debater personality type expect their
ideas to be heard by those above them, expect robust debate among their peers, and
demand that those they manage offer up new solutions and ideas regardless of their
positions. While this isn’t always how things play out in reality, Debaters know what to
look for, and can avoid those strictly hierarchical institutions that they would otherwise
struggle with.

 While not always their goal, management is often where Debaters are most at home,
 allowing them the freedom to fiddle with different approaches and come up with
innovative ways to tackle new challenges without having to handle the tedious step-
by-step implementation of these plans.
