The study of the Nine Temperaments is called the Enneagram and is described in the free ebook listed above. The Enneagram types (Temperaments) are not made up of lists of character traits, but are founded in a person's core values. Each Temperament represents what that person considers something very important to their life such as power, security, harmony, knowledge, fulfillment, i.e.
Your Temperament enables you to make a valuable contributions to your life; but it also causes you to neglect other values, creating a psychological ‘blind spot” for you.
This is why, if you:

The Orange Trangle in the above image points to the RESPONDIVE TEMPERAMENTS which move toward thinking. They are:
Temperament 1 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward right thinking. Correct behavior is a result of knowing what is right and what is wrong. This knowing is obvious to the member, yet not obvious to others. From the member's perspective it's not the member who is determining what is right, it's simply an absolute unquestioned obvious about what is right. Doing is preferred to thinking. We call members of this Temperament - Reformer – Perfectionists. Temperament One examples are: Hillary Clinton, Tom Brokaw, Martha Stewart, Al Gore, and Tony Randall. These people want to be good. They have high ideals and value and are attracted to situations where those ideals are met. They want to realize all their potential and help others actualize theirs. They envision making the world a better place to live.
Temperament 2 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward the thinking of others. Anticipating the needs of others can arise from knowing what others are thinking. There's a habit of assuming the image or emotions that will please others. To this member, this doesn't seem like manipulation, it's simply finding the right approach to make that emotional connection that seems so vital. Feeling is preferred to thinking. We call members of this Temperament - Giver – Helpers. Temperament Two examples are: Bill Cosby, Alan Alda, Nancy Reagan, Dolly Parton, and Pat Boone. These people want to know they are loving. They want to nurture others and foster relationships. They value and are attracted to love. They envision making the world a more loving place to live.
Temperament 6 – The members of this Temperament are moving toward the thinking of an authority. This member questions their own thinking and the thinking of others. The quest is for a trusting source of reason and rules. If the member can find a reliable and trusted source of thinking then the questioning, doubt, and resulting anxiety may fade. Trusting is preferred to thinking (to say it another way, the preference is to trust the thinking of an authority, but the difficulty lies in finding a trustworthy authority). We call members of this Temperament - Loyal – Skeptics.
Temperament Six examples are: Helen Palmer, Michael Moore, Tom Hanks, Rush Limbaugh, Richard Nixon, and Mel Gibson. These people want to make the world a safer, more secure, more reliable, more trustworthy place to live and they will question anyone’s authority in their effort to do so. They value loyalty in themselves and others and stand by their commitments.

Twos, will: Do that for you * Buzz About Emotional Intelligence
The Buzz About Emotional Intelligence
Pramila Mathew
According to Wikipedia, Emotional Intelligence describes the ability, capacity or skill to manage the emotions of oneself, of others and of groups.
In 1985, Wayne Leon Payne initially coined the term "Emotional Intelligence" in his doctoral thesis, A Study of Emotion: Developing Emotional Intelligence. But it was not until the publication of Daniel Goleman's bestseller Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ that the term became widely popularized. Ever since, there has been widespread interest in Emotional Intelligence (EI), and Emotional Quotient, as it is also known, has taken precedence over Intelligence Quotient (IQ) in management circles around the world.

America's wealthy are generous givers who feel a sense of obligation to the society that allowed them to prosper. So why don't Australia's rich feel the same? 16 Jul 2010 9:00 AM
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Through his years of research as a psychologist and a science journalist, Goleman developed a framework to explain emotional intelligence in terms of five elements viz. fire, water, earth, wood and metal. He described each of them in terms of:
a) Self-regulation
b) Self-awareness
c) Motivation
d) Empathy and
e) Social skills
a) Self-regulation: Also understood as self restraint, it includes controlling and retaining one's emotions.
b) Self-awareness: Individuals high on self assessment/awareness will be aware of their own strengths and weaknesses, and be self confident about their own goals, capabilities and values.
c) Motivation: Individuals who are high on EQ are always motivated and enjoy stimulation and challenge. They are initiators and optimistic about life and its challenges.
d) Empathy: Empathy is the ability to see other people's points of view. Individuals high on EQ are honest with themselves and others.
e) Social skills: Individuals with good social skills have the capacity to initiate and manage change. More importantly, they have the ability to deal with the emotions of others. This helps in managing group dynamics and inter-organizational communication.
All the above points indicate that Emotional Intelligence can definitely make a difference in the manner in which success is achieved. Hence people who demonstrate these characteristics are more likely to be successful in senior management. To prove his point, Goleman has cited research from various sources which suggests that senior managers with a higher emotional intelligence rating perform better than those with a lower EQ.

Why do we use numbers?
Names such as: Twos, Giver, Caretaker, Helper, Nurturer, or Advisor, are commonly used to decribed the Temperaments Types. We use numbers instead of any names.
We use numbers to designate each of the Temperament Types because numbers are value neutral. They imply the whole range of attitudes and behaviors of each Temperament without specifying anything either positive or negative.
The numerical ranking of the Types is not significant. A larger number is no better than a smaller number.
No Temperament Type is inherently better or worse than any other. While all the Temperament Types have unique assets and liabilities, some Types are often more desirable than others in our society.
You may not be happy with your particular Type. You may feel that your Type is “limited" in some way. As you learn more about all the Types, you will see that just as each has unique capacities, each has different “limits.”
People do not change from one basic Temperament Type to another. Some Types are more valued in our society than others; it is because of the qualities that society rewards, not because of any superior value of those Types.
The descriptions of the Temperament Types apply equally to males and females, since no Type is inherently masculine or feminine. Not everything in the description of your basic Type will apply to you all the time because you fluctuate constantly.
