Social Sixes look for security in rules, systems, and clear roles. They want to know who's in charge of what, how things are done, and what they can count on. They are reliable, precise, and responsible.
On the outside they come across as confident and matter-of-fact, even though they carry doubts inside. Rules and authority give them support. They are loyal to the group, company, or ideal they belong to, and they know how to fight for it. They have a strong sense of duty.
They override their doubts by being overly sure of themselves. They have a hard time with uncertainty and ambiguity, which is why they like precision and clear categories. At the extreme, they can become unwavering followers of a single ideology or authority. They come across as cooler and more formal than the other Sixes.
