The Team Captain
I rally the team, and I feel every loss.
You rally people to a task at hand.
You get a group moving toward a shared goal and keep things roughly in order along the way. A loss stays with you for days after everyone else has stopped thinking about it.
Rallying · Steadfast · Practical
The five together
Outgoing, fair and practical, you rally people to the task, keep things roughly organised, feel a loss for days, and play the game the way it has always been played.
The Team Captain's result is high on Extraversion, low on Emotional Stability and Openness and in the middle on Agreeableness and Conscientiousness. Each band is wide on purpose: a score near a boundary can fall either side on a retake, and the portrait describes the pattern, not a precise point.

The traits behind The Team Captain
A portrait is a pattern across five measured dimensions. Every trait is reported as a percentile against the reference sample; the three bands and the portrait name exist to make the result easier to talk about, and the percentile is always shown alongside. Each dimension has its own page explaining what it means, what the research says it predicts, and how it can change.
- High band, above the 70th percentileWhat is Extraversion?
How much you enjoy being around people, talking, and doing lively things, and how much energy that gives you.
- Balanced band, 30th to 70th percentileWhat is Agreeableness?
How kind, trusting, and cooperative you tend to be with other people, and how much you put getting along ahead of getting your way.
- Balanced band, 30th to 70th percentileWhat is Conscientiousness?
How organised, careful, and reliable you are about getting things done and keeping your promises.
- Quiet band, below the 30th percentileWhat is Emotional Stability?
How calm and even you usually feel, and how quickly you bounce back when something upsets you.
- Quiet band, below the 30th percentileWhat is Openness?
How much you enjoy new ideas, art, imagination, and experiences that are different from what you already know.
The Snapshot also measures Honesty-Humility, which appears in your report but is not part of the portrait code. How much you tell the truth, play fair, want only your fair share, and avoid showing off, even when you could get away with more.
