Collaboration Styles

The Rational styles I concluded are:
- Fe: student
- Ti: professor
- Te: physician
- Fi: patient

The ideas behind them are, on short:
- Student: he wants to understand a situation to act. He needs all the details, what and why and considers each situation as different, requiring different understanding which the Professor can provide by thinking about and answering every question. He develops his own methods per case and refuses to adhere to pre-established ones.
- Professor: he agrees with anyone who has a correct understanding of a situation, case-by-case. He requires understanding from people, which implies adherence to strict principles, although not being interested in the methods. This requirement is satisfied by the Student - who asks for explanations and can be examined - trusting that a good understanding implies good results.
- Physician: he is interested only in what the presented problem is and what is supposed to be accomplished. He has a large baggage of practical knowledge and knows how to do things by himself using pre-established procedures as much as possible, being able to recommend what's to be done in each case. He does not require people to have understanding in the problems, but the detailed report of the problems themselves.
- Patient: he is interested only in what's supposed to be done in a problem he has. He's not interested in explaining people his reasons or understanding, just to be presented solutions to his grievances. The Physician is the one who can accomplish that, he asks for the symptoms, identify the issue and takes the required measures.
