How Thinkers Handle Critique

• When it comes to critique, most Thinkers tend to critique an idea as soon as they hear it.

• For most Thinkers, their favorite sport in the whole wide world is logical, rational, analytical critique of other people’s ideas and plans.

• There is nothing more fun for the Thinker than when someone asks them to pick apart their strategy and business plan to help make it better.

How Feelers Handle Critique

• Feelers, on the other hand, cringe at such a response.

• If relationships are going poorly, or if things are not going well at work, then, to the Feeler, that usually means they as a person are failing. That’s why critique (“constructive criticism”) and challenge always feels more personal to the Feeler than the Thinker. So, if they’re going to get feedback or critique, Feelers are best positioned to receive it when they hear it from somebody they trust.
