preferences of individuals. The LPI is formulated based on the Five Factors
Model (FFM) of human personality. It is anchored under the Types & Traits
Theory of classical personality theories.
The LPI has been administered to thousands of individuals from Asia, Europe,
Australia and New Zealand. The L.E.O.N.A.R.D Personality Inventory is named
after the acronym Let's Explore our personality based on Openness, Neutral,
Analytical, Relational and Decisive behavioural tendencies. The LPI can
identify a person's emotional orientation and locate a person's preferred
behavioural orientations on any of the five behavioural dimensions as stated
above.

Imaginator, Neutral Expert, Analytical Thinker, Relator and Decision-Maker.
