Negative Commander Negative behavior is usually an indication of high stress or strong conditioning. Scores for negative behavior should fall well within the dark shaded area. A high score in this section indicates a negative Commander pattern. Negative Commanders tend to be bossy, controlling, argumentative, hard to please, overly aggressive, insensitive, and thoughtless. Though they may appear caring at times, it's usually a calculated move to get ahead. They use and take advantage of others, regularly placing their own desires ahead of the needs and feelings of others. They can be abusive (both physically and psychologically). They believe in win/lose interactions and their goal is to always be on the winning side. Negative Commanders have little empathy, so causing others pain is of little consequence to them, especially if it gets them what they want. In fact, those at the extreme end of the negativity scale actually enjoy watching others squirm in discomfort. They control through intimidation, humiliation, threats and punishment, if not outright abuse. |
