I probably shouldn't toss this out here on a day that has started as wonderfully well as this one, but WTH... here's my antonym (negative traits) Nohari here, if anyone cares to respond... (wry grin).
Jay, I would be happy to talk to you about any or all of these, and give my perspective. Do you want to do it here, or would you prefer via IM, perhaps tomorrow? (time for me to head to bed right now).
One note I think is important: You may be put off by the sheer number of items that folks chose, the ones that show up in the "blind spot" window. I'd like to offer an alternative view. Keep in mind that the more items are in that window, the less consensus there is about each item. Also, as it stands right now, 9% is only ONE PERSON. Keep that in mind as you look at the numbers. It's likely to have quite a lot of sampling bias with such a relatively small sample.
Les has it right, in that some strengths become weaknesses if taken too far. I know one of the words I chose in the Nohari was "inflexible," but what I really wanted was "rigid." You are very strong, and when you get your teeth into something, you won't let it go. But it means that you won't back down, sometimes, when you need to (like the flamewar a couple weeks back).
And, of course, another word I think I chose for you (on the Johari, I believe) was "complex." It's quite possible for YOU to be contradicting YOURSELF. You have many facets, and not all of them are always "positive," and sometimes they're positive in one situation, but negative in another. And sometimes they're both at the same time.
