Understanding the Coordinator
You think about people with the same seriousness that others reserve for strategy. You want communities to thrive, and you invest time and energy into creating conditions where growth feels natural and supported. You often become the quiet organizer who knows who needs help, who needs space, or which connection could strengthen the group. You feel most satisfied when your efforts help many people succeed together.
Dominant Driver
Green is the drive toward connection and organic growth. It shows up in people who think about how things and people fit together over time, who notice the emotional atmosphere in a room, and who care about whether a path feels alive rather than just impressive. This might be the person who tends to friendships like a garden, who values slow, steady progress, or who keeps an eye on whether everyone is actually okay beneath the surface. At its hardest moments, Green can avoid necessary conflict, stay too long in familiar situations, or bend itself around others until it’s not sure what it really wants anymore.
Auxiliary Driver
Black is the drive toward agency and effective achievement. It shows up in people who notice power dynamics, think in terms of trade-offs, and are willing to do what it takes to move from wishing to actually getting results. This might be the person who negotiates, sets clear personal goals, or quietly builds leverage instead of waiting for permission. At its hardest moments, Black can become suspicious, guarded, or calculating, afraid of being weak or dependent and struggling to fully trust that others will have their back.
Lacking Driver
When you lack Blue, life runs mostly on habit and immediate reactions. You make decisions because 'that’s how it’s always done' or 'everyone else is doing it', with little patience for questions or deeper reflection. You or the people around you get irritated when asked to slow down, change your mind, or look at nuance, and the idea of learning before acting feels like a burden rather than a resource.
Lacking Driver
When you lack Red, life starts to feel muted and overly careful. You swallow strong feelings or postpone them, and you make choices mostly to avoid conflict or trouble. Days blur into routines that are ‘fine’ but rarely exciting, relationships stay polite rather than alive, and big desires are often shelved until the moment to act has already passed.
Strengths & Weaknesses
- Builds communities that are both caring and effective—results and relationships together
- Sees long-term growth pathways for people and groups; you invest in potential others overlook
- Combines empathy with strategic thinking; you care deeply and you plan carefully
- Creates conditions for flourishing instead of just demanding results
- Becomes subtly controlling in the name of care, steering people 'for their own good'
- Undervalues individual autonomy—frustrated when people don't grow the way you expected
- Struggles to accept paths that diverge from your vision, even when they're thriving
- Cultivates people into what you think they should be instead of who they actually are
