September 11, 2021

Eagles don’t mess around. Life is about making things happen. Getting results is the most important thing, eagles believe. ‘If you can’t use something, then what’s the use of it?’ To eagles, there needs to be more people like them in the word. No-nonsense people, who can get the job done.

Eagles are fuelled by authority and power. We all know someone like this.

 

The traits of an eagle  

Style: Confident, fast and businesslike
Face: Gives little away
Voice: Strong and forceful
Body Language: Very little
Clothes: Conservative, no frills. Black, charcoal and grey colours preferred.

Life View: ‘Let’s get a result!’
Attitude: “Let’s get down to business.” Quick and abrupt, they always seem to have more important people than you that they need to talk to.
Sayings: “What’s the bottom line?”
Car: Conservative, but prestige and powerful. They love the big four-wheel drives.

How to engage with an eagle

Do let them be, or appear to be, in control

Do keep conversations brief and to the point

Do appreciate that discipline rules their lives

Do let them feel free to get results

Do accept the fact that their career comes first

Do understand that they are highly competitive

Don’t expect them to be good listeners

Don’t offer long-winded explanations or excuses

Don’t expect them to be patient

Don’t expect them to be timid in the face of argument

Don’t break a promise or commitment to them

Don’t indulge in long telephone conversations

Don’t be upset by their sarcasm or knife-edged comments.

 

The tyrant… the leader… the businessman.

Eagles are confident and cool guys (and gals). Short, bossy and sarcastic, eagles don’t back down in a fight. Sharp and unemotional, eagles have a tendency to avoid or ignore situations (or people) causing the stress. They just get on with things.

Eagles are very black and white. You either win or lose, in their eyes. Get ready for “it’s my way or the highway.”

In other words, it’s Trump.
