I would have to agree with the poster upthread that side Alpha-Beta personalities are more a SLIDING scale than a specific definitive personality. I know an Alpha with some Beta when he opens his mouth and I know a Beta with some Alpha in the same respect.
I don't think Alpha's and Beta's are so rare as a healthy balance is more rare. I love Alpha types but I am a women so I need the more care/appreciative/considerate side of a Beta. I want the healthy balance.
I know that you can slide on the skill as life shows you that you need to be softer or tougher in different areas of your life. Which is why I think POTUS is Alpha/Beta. He's definitely not just Beta and I definitely think he grew into his Beta traits. He has influence, personal power, presence, focus (even at times at the expense of family and this is based on pre-presidental days), ego, smooth, laid-back etc....but I know because of his wife and family and working in the community he has learned to be a softer more caring side of himself. He plays to win but he wants everyone to win too. He is a win-win thinker.
