How do you fascinate? The Mystique personality listens with care.

Mystique personalities fascinate others with their unusual ability to filter what they communicate. They thoughtfully edit their ideas and opinions, selectively choosing what to reveal and share. Because they don’t overcommunicate, they avoid sending distracting signals, making each detail more influential.There are seven different ways to communicate.

Mystique personalities speak the language of LISTENING.

They think before speaking. They’re admired for their understatement, rationale, and analysis.

They listen with care. When they’re on top of their game, they are often described as:

  • Observant
  • Independent
  • Logical

Since they don’t rely on intuition, they systematically gather evidence before reaching a conclusion.

They are good at managing their own work.

They excel at decoding nuances. They skillfully outline strategies, but only after careful reflection.

Who communicates with Mystique? A few examples:

  • The poker player who conceals his emotions as the pot grows larger.
  • The account manager who sells based on rational facts.
  • The doctor whose facial expression doesn’t reveal whether your test results are good or bad.
