How to read this

Type similarity isn't the same as compatibility. Two matched types tend to understand each other quickly but can share the same blind spots. Opposite types (0% overlap) often build the deepest complementary partnerships once they invest in translation.

The 16-type framework is a lens, not a diagnosis. See our methodology for what the research supports and what it doesn't.
