TYPE SIX: The Loyal Sceptic
believes you must gain protection and security in a hazardous world you just can't trust. Consequently, Loyal Skeptics are themselves trustworthy, inquisitive, good friends and questioning, but also can be overly doubtful, accusatory and fearful. Sixes see the world as a dangerous place, and, to protect themselves, ask questions to find out exactly what's happening or to ascertain what might be likely to happen. Sixes question everything and this scepticism and doubt often prevents them from doing what they would like to do because they are afraid. They scan for hidden agendas and are ambivalent toward authority. When working with them it is important to gain their confidence by reassuring them that you are trustworthy and fair. At their best, Sixes are great at getting a task done, once they know what's involved and are sure that in the process of getting it done, they won't be embarrassed, humiliated or undermined. They have a witty offbeat sense of humour.
