Social ineptitude and technical aptitude often abound in Analyst families. These people may sound familiar if you’re a cog in the workings of an Analyst family:

A dad who laboriously manipulates complex rebate programs to get back just a few dollars.
A mom addicted to difficult crossword and Sudoku puzzles.
A brother who spends more time arguing in excruciating detail on social media than socializing.
A sister who revels in advanced STEM classes.
Analyst personalities sometimes prioritize their rational thoughts over their feelings, making them seem a little distant even when their hearts are in the right place. Social awareness is rarely their forte, but they can be adept at understanding the world around them. With such active minds, they get bored easily and are always fiddling with conceptual projects. Analyst families are full of witty humor, ideas to make things better, and excitement for what might be. They’re thrilled to share their clever thoughts, especially if they can help those they love.
