Four of us met at Kristin Nisewaner's home in June to talk about Type. As we sipped coffee and nibbled on muffins and fruit, we discussed the 8 Functions as presented by Bob McAlpine in May. In particular, we delved more deeply into Bob's idea of opposites: Dynamic Opposite, Opposing Personality, and (to a lesser extent) Complementary Opposite.
All four of us prefer iNtuition (one Ne and three Ni) and we agreed that we weren't sure what the underlying model was for these "opposites". We understood the shortcuts to determining them: change the outer letters for the Opposing Personality, the inner letters for the Dynamic Opposite, and all four letters for the Complementary Opposite.
But what does each opposite mean?
Vicki wrote out the full codes for each "opposite" and thinks she has a handle on how each opposite was determined, based on what's changing in terms of functions.
Julie said she'd send a note to Bob to ask if he might provide more background information for us.
Two hours went by too quickly.
We hope you'll be able to join us at a future Type Talk. Perhaps in August?
