Characteristics
- The Adjudicator aims to gather just enough information for a decision, and considers it important to spend some time considering the pros and cons of the decision.
- Once they have considered the pros and cons of their situation, they are usually able to make a decision reasonably quickly.
- Before getting to this point, however, they can be prone to going back and forth in their minds, and can sometimes put pressure on themselves to arrive at a conclusion quickly.
- On the occasions when they experience analysis paralysis, they can get frustrated with themselves for not making a decision sooner.
Beliefs
They believe that balance is everything in life, and that all decisions must be carefully weighed in the invisible scales in the mind before making a final judgement.
Fears
They have a deep sense of injustice, and are very careful when it comes to a decision that could cause harm to themselves or to others.
Justification statement
“It is crucial to be mindful of our decisions because they have the power to affect the world around us.”
Strategy for growth
The Adjudicator’s need for well-deliberated decisions can sometimes lead to important decisions not being made in good time. Adjudicators must learn that not all decisions need to go through their judging scales. Some decisions require intuitiveness, and if Adjudicators can learn to lean more into their intuition, they may find that their ability to make excellent decisions is greatly improved.
All human beings have traits of all the decision types, but we all have a dominant type which we use and rely upon more than the others.
