The system’s basic structure:
In the Teska Type System™ there are four general types of people, called Wolves, Foxes, Hawks, and Doves. Wolves and Foxes are naturally sociable, while Hawks and Doves are innately reserved.
The system also identifies eight natural talents people possess—Fighting, Dancing, Tending, etc.—that are expressed in general ways. Each of us has one, based on the intensity of our masculine and feminine aspects.
The four general types and eight natural talents combine to form 16 personality types: Fighting Wolves, Tending Doves, etc. Each type brings with it “superpowers,” or innate strengths and abilities.
