working with the Type A personality

The main problem with working with the Type A arises from the following points:

• When people don’t have high time urgency: what can really drive a type A mad is when he finds that people don’t put much weight to the passage of time. If you want to get along with a type A make sure that you pay some attention to your progress with respect to time
• When people don’t achieve much: the average type A usually achieves more than double the achievement of other people in the same period of time (maybe more than double) when the type A finds that people he is working with are slow he may get annoyed.

when the Type A becomes an entrepreneur

When a Type A takes a step to start his own business he will usually have major problems with all of those who work with him. In that case the Type A does tremendous effort in order for his business to rise. If people didn't match the efficiency or the speed of a type A then certainly problems will arise.

In such a case the type A usually becomes very critical to others when they don't match his speed.
