| | Leadership/Vision | Action/Fortitude | Wisdom/Knowledge, | Compassion/Empathy |
| M Mature, positive masculine, | I take the lead. I organise the meeting or action. I create the environment where others can join. I am respectful of the contribution others bring. | I get on with the task. If I say I will do something, I do it. I don’t take on too much, I know my limits. I channel my anger into effective action. I govern my emotions. | I do research to understand the problem. I seek advice from those who know more. I calm my mind so that insight can arise. I test my ideas on others and am open to change. | I really feel for those guys. I feel invigorated when I can help. I can feel my grief and can connect with the grief of others. I can express my emotions and be vulnerable with others. I can enjoy the sunshine and being with friends and feel satisfied. |
| M+ Men behaving badly | I need to be in charge. I know my ideas are best. I am dismissive of other ideas. Good ideas originated from me. You must recognise my leadership or I will get angry. | I focus on the task to the exclusion of other things. I have high standards which means it takes me longer than I had expected, but I don’t want to lower my standards. | I generally know more than most people in the group so need to persuade them my ideas are best. I sometimes keep information to myself so that other people don’t steal it. | I am constantly seeking something new, gratification, but I am never satisfied. I despise men who show their feelings. |
| M- Men behaving weakly | I cannot lead. I will do what others think. I fail to act because I don’t know what to do. I don’t ask for advice because I don’t want to show my weakness. | I don’t tend to offer because I am very busy. I intend to do the task, but am often too busy to actually complete it. I have received help from other men, but don’t have the time to help others in return. | I don’t know enough about things to really have a view. I try looking stuff up, but it doesn’t make sense. I wish I was clever. | I am bored and listless. I can’t be bothered. Friends are not interesting. Everything seems dull. |
