i: Influence
The Energetic Connector
If you’re someone who brings energy into the room, sees the potential in others, and believes work should be as engaging as it is productive—you might be an i-style.
i-style professionals are people-first. They thrive on connection, creativity, and momentum. They’re natural collaborators who bring optimism, fresh ideas, and that “let’s make this fun” vibe to their teams.
An i-style professional might say:
- “Let’s brainstorm—ideas flow better together.”
- “If the vibe’s off, the work will be too.”
- “I want people to feel seen, heard, and motivated.”

What i-Styles Can Work On
Every style has growth areas—here’s where i-style professionals might need to slow down and refocus:
Following through
Starting is easy; finishing takes intention.
Staying organized
Details matter, even if they’re not your favorite part.
Having the tough conversations
Wanting to be liked can make feedback harder to give.
Managing routine work
It’s okay if it’s not exciting—structure still matters.
Building systems and practicing follow-through will turn your ideas and enthusiasm into consistent impact.
