A multi-active person is extroverted, gives great importance to feelings, relationships and people.

Multitasking, dislikes agendas. Conversations are roundabout, emotional and animated. Thinks, speaks and listens at the same time. Interrupts frequently and is uncomfortable with pauses and silence.

Maintains relationships face-to-face, not by correspondence or phone calls. Written communication is less effective. Having limited respect for authority, accepts their place in their own social hierarchy. Has less respect for official announcements, rules, or regulations.

Often late with deadlines but also very flexible. The concepts of time and discourse are non-linear and people who prioritize schedule over relationships are difficult to understand. Doesn’t plan in detail but is good at improvisation. Tends to be emotional and family-oriented. Aware that everyone has their own truth. Doesn’t necessarily maintain promises if circumstances change. Conquers others with compassion and human warmth.
