Their shape

The Frontier

At home at the edge of what comes next.

The Frontier is restless and pioneering, always testing what comes next. Its gift is innovation and adaptability, its challenge is focus, and not leaving its longtime members behind.

Also reads toward The Movement and The Guild.

Strengths

→You move toward the unknown while others wait for certainty.
→Decisions are made and acted on, and momentum rarely stalls in committee.
→Your field watches you for what's next, not what came before.
