People with ISTP preferences are usually curious and motivated to solve problems and figure things out.
However, sometimes they put more energy into solving the problem than they do into considering the people involved.
This might be okay if others understood their logical approach. Unfortunately, people can take their analytical, impersonal approach the wrong way and may feel ignored, insulted, or criticized by the ISTPs typical responses.
Such unexpected reactions can get in the way of the ISTP being able to get their work done efficiently.
Do any ISTPs experience this? What tactics can ISTPs use to ensure they don’t frustrate others?
