Career Context
​
At work, the WB04 is motivated to solve logical problems in the moment. WB04s have a solid grasp of the concrete realities of a situation and a good sense of the resources at their disposal. Because they understand the facts of the present, they are often able to quickly see a way out of difficult situations. The WB04 relies on past experience to choose the best approach for the situation at hand. WB04s are concrete and hands-on, and have a kinetic sense of how things work. Although WB04s may have trouble envisioning abstract ideas, they are flexible in their approach: if something sounds logical, they are usually willing to give it a try. WB04s often choose careers that take advantage of their athleticism, their mechanical skills, or their ability to negotiate their physical surroundings. They tend to prefer objects to ideas and often like a tangible product. They may have trouble sitting still and often avoid being stuck behind a desk.

TEAMMATE​
​
The WB04 on a TeamWB04s are enthusiastic participants who enjoy identifying resources and moving dynamically through problems to find practical solutions. They’re often great in a crisis, when their flexibility and action orientation makes them a clear head in the crowd. They may act as the voice of reason and will often point the group toward using available means to take immediate action. WB04s often want to keep interactions fun and casual on a team, and may have conflict with team members who are overly serious or insist that things be done a particular way. WB04s prefer to keep things open-ended and flexible, and colleagues who want to lock into a plan may find resistance from the WB04, especially if the WB04 does not see immediate, concrete benefits to the proposed action. They do best when they’re allowed to solve problems in their own practical, no-nonsense way, without a lot of imposed structure or rules.
​
THE BOSS
​
WB04s are eager to take charge, especially in a crisis situation. They are energetic and persuasive, and read others easily to adapt their approach and move the group toward their own point of view. Blunt and assertive, WB04s readily offer their opinion without much attention to office politics or personal reactions. WB04 leaders seek efficiency and trust what they’ve seen done before. They sometimes struggle with long-range planning; they may have trouble visualizing the future and prefer to solve problems as they arise. They want action and movement, and will engage enthusiastically with their teams to produce immediate results.
