1. An introduction to a Red persona

Fiery Reds are the most testosterone-fuelled type of all personas. Reds are highly competitive, quite domineering, opinionated, and strive for perfection, which makes them high achievers, and more often than not, takes them to the top of the pack.

Reds love debating, sometimes just for the sake of it, and bring competition into everything they do, including work and sport. They like the thrill of winning an argument, so if you were to be tempted to debate with them, it is unlikely you would walk away as the winner.

You will quite easily recognise the Red for their confrontational manner of communication, strong views and opinions on everything and anything, as well as lack of praise or compliments. They can quite easily lose their temper, but at the same time, their charm and confidence are very attractive personality features.

Reds tend to take a while to let go, relax and unwind. And even then, it is more than likely that they are really still contemplating their next exploit in their head, so don’t take it personally if you find yourself in their company just to realise that while they might be present physically, their mind is elsewhere.

Reds might be very outspoken and outgoing, but they are not the type to wear their heart on their sleeve, so don’t expect them to be able to share their emotions easily. Because of their tendency to be emotionally ‘constipated’, they don’t react well to someone else’s display of emotions. They would not want you to reveal any emotionally sensitive details of your life, they have more important things on their minds.

Reds will always appear immaculately dressed, whether the occasion is work or casual, or even in sports apparel. They are often lean in their build as they burn so much energy with their fast-paced lifestyle. Although occasionally you may find a Red whose appearance displays effects of a pressurised schedule, unhealthy diet and rigorous entertaining.

Needless to say, with all their drive and ambition, these confident and outspoken people, more often than not, excel in pretty much every area of their lives.
