Priorities
Pick one thing out of everything you want to do
In different settings
The same person can look a little different depending on where they are.
With friends
When planning a trip, they bring both fun and facts: "This place has great reviews, what if we go this way?"
In group projects
They come up with ideas and find the evidence. Their interests are wide, so topics can branch off in several directions.
At home
They're the one who explains how a new gadget works so the whole family gets it. Their interests change often.
Common misreadings
What people see isn't always what's going on inside.
"They think a lot but can't decide"
They see so many good options that it takes a while. Give them one criterion and they pick quickly.
"Are they emotional or logical?"
Both. Sparking an idea by feel and checking it with evidence is this type's strength.
Common questions
Q. What if an IC type seems scattered?
Narrow the focus to one thing: "Just this today." With a clear scope, their focus is strong.
Q. How do I disagree with an IC type's idea?
Don't brush the idea off; suggest checking the evidence together. When they feel respected, they'll refine it themselves.
Q. How do I get along with an IC type?
Hear out new ideas and try at least one together. Seeing an idea come to life is their biggest joy.
