People with the steadiness style are "slower-paced and relationship-focused. They are also open and indirect, relatively unassertive, warm, and reliable,(assessment survey). They like to know how others feel about decisions they had made and tend to avoid confrontation. Personal relationships are high priorities for the steadiness style. People with this behavior style have a strong tendency to be supportive of others. When placed in a stressful situation this person may seem indifferent to most but it is a self preservation technique to just avoid the unpleasant situation. Others that are aggressive and pushy tend to irritate the steadiness style, and often put them into uncomfortable situations. This behavior style likes for things to remain the same and often avoid change. Steadiness styles prefer to work in situations where plans are laid out and each step of the process is clearly defined. They are generally not risk takers, prefer to feel in charge of their situation. They do need to learn how to delegate tasks, realizing that there are others who are also capable of performing the job and therefore freeing up some time for themselves. People with this style of behavior tend to "spread themselves too thin" because they do not trust others to complete a given task. Under the steadiness style is the subcategory of the go-getter. "The Go-Getter is LESS open and LESS indirect than most other Steadiness styles," (assessment survey). While not always a direct person, when a goal is on the line, the go-getter can be very direct in getting their point across and taking charge to get this task accomplished.
