Square Rectangle Triangle Circle Squiggle
Square Convergent Thinker
A Square feels most comfortable with a stable environment and clear
directions on what to do. A square is conservative and likes things
that are regular and orderly. If given a chance, a square will work on
a job until it is finished, even if it is repetitious, cumbersome and
lonely.
The Square, Rectangle and Triangle are all convergent. They are
working towards something specific and finite, and they do it in a
logical and systematic way. But they might be lacking in personal
creativity.
If you really need something specific done, the Square is the most
likely to do it exactly as specified. Squares will work well in the
accounting department.

1 of 4
A Square will need fairly specific instructions. Squares will not be
happy just floating around, not knowing where things are going. A
Square will feel good about being presented with a technique and
carrying it through until it is done. It doesn't matter much if it is
repetitious, regularity is a source of comfort. For a Square it is a
good idea to have more of a formal routine, certain rituals that are
repeated.
If square was your first choice go back and click on your second

Rectangle Convergent Thinker
A Rectangle likes structure and regularity. But she/he will establish
it with organization, meetings, committees and so forth. This will
have to be done the proper way, taking all rules and regulations into
consideration. If given a task she/he will start organizing to be sure
it can be done the most systematic way.
The Rectangle is a convergent thinker working towards something
specific and finite, and the rectangle does things in a logical and
systematic way. But rectangles might be lacking in personal
creativity.

Rectangle is most likely to make that happen.

needs to make a systematic overview and will probably also enjoy
understanding the principles of a situation. A Rectangle is
comfortable knowing and noticing that systematic techniques are
being used and that he/she is in control.

Triangle Convergent Thinker
A Triangle is goal oriented. A Triangle enjoys planning something out
and then doing it. Triangles are motivated by the accomplishment.
Triangles tend to look at big long-term issues, but might forget the
details. When given a task a triangle will set a goal and work on a
plan for it.
A Triangle needs to see a goal and needs to see some
accomplishments. Triangles appreciate having a chart of steps to
follow. Triangles will take great pleasure in checking off each item
that gets done. It should always be clear what the underlying
intention is. If the direction is agreed upon, the Triangle can be quite
flexible in how to get there.
Triangles are convergent thinkers. They are working towards
something specific and finite, and they do it in a logical and
systematic way. But they might be lacking in personal creativity.

they are met.

there is harmony. When given a task circles will talk about it.
•
The Circle is a divergent thinker. Circles are creative, extroverted,
and intuitive. They will reach out to new areas and to other people.
But they aren't particularly systematic or dependable.
For any kind of personal relations the Circle will be good. A Circle will
be a good personnel person or a receptionist or customer service
representative.
Convergent people (squares, rectangles) might be really frustrated
that the divergent ones (circles, squiggles) don't seem to be able to
get done what they are supposed to, but will do all kinds of other
things and not care about deadlines.
The divergent people might find the convergent ones cold and
narrow minded, not taking human factors and new possibilities into
consideration.
A Circle doesn't need a plan or a system and is probably turned off
by one. Circles need to talk about whatever is at hand. You need to
be flexible working with circles and dealing with whatever is going
on. For Circles getting to an overall harmonious situation is more
important than getting techniques done right.
If circle was your first choice go back and click on your second choice

Squiggle Divergent Thinker
A Squiggle is off-the-wall and creative. A Squiggle feels best doing
new and different things most of the time and gets bored with
regularity. When given a task, a Squiggle will come up with bright
ideas about it.
A Squiggle is a divergent thinker. Squiggles are creative,
extroverted, and intuitive. They will reach out around them into new
areas and to other people. But they aren't particularly systematic or
dependable.
If anything new is needed a Squiggle is the person for the job:
Advertising, problem solving, etc.
The convergent people (square, rectangle, triangle) might be really
frustrated that the divergent ones (squiggle, circle) don't seem to be
able to get done what they are supposed to, but will do all kinds of
other things and not care about deadlines. The divergent people
might find the convergent ones cold and narrow minded, not taking
human factors and new possibilities into consideration.
A Squiggle must be presented with new and different things.
Unexpected angles is what will motivate a squiggle. It is perfectly
fine if no kind of technique is recognized and every session is
different. With a squiggle you must be flexible enough to jump
around a bit and avoid preconceived ideas about where things will
end up.
