Personality Style. I'm thinking here of the widely-used DISC personality assessment, which focuses a bit less on "type" than on "style." DISC identifies four key behavioral styles, which they label D (drive), I (insight), S (steadiness) and C (compliance). What I like about this way of thinking about personality (as opposed to the more nuanced but complicated Myers-Briggs assessment) is that it gives you a sort of over-arching "flavor" for people you encounter, each of which has a set of prevailing traits, strengths and weaknesses. In my old job, for example, once I learned that as a (high!) D (dominant/forceful/task-oriented), I was sharing an office with a high S (reliable, dependable, process-oriented), so many things came to make sense and I could adjust my own interactions accordingly.
