The following is a personality profile of H W Brands based on his work.
H W Brands is heartfelt and rational.
He is confident, he is hard to embarrass and is self-confident most of the time. He is calm under pressure as well: he handles unexpected events calmly and effectively. But, H W Brands is also calm-seeking: he prefers activities that are quiet, calm, and safe.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for organization.
He is relatively unconcerned with both taking pleasure in life and independence. He prefers activities with a purpose greater than just personal enjoyment. And he welcomes when others direct his activities for him.
