Concrete Experience - “Feeling” - Those who sense and feel tend more to the experience itself - They immerse themselves in concrete
reality - They perceive through their senses - They are intuitive
Abstract Conceptualization - “Thinking”- Those who think through the experience tend more to abstract dimensions of reality- They analyze what’s happening- Their intellect makes the first appraisal- They “reason the experience
