Dominant Archetypes · Mini-Course

Service Dom 101

Their control is expressed through what they make possible for their partner.

This course explores the service dom role: the architecture of care and structure that defines it, how it differs from other dominant archetypes, and what it requires in terms of organizational skill, genuine investment, and consistent acknowledgment. You will learn how to create and maintain meaningful service structures, how to negotiate the dynamic with a service-oriented partner, and how to build a practice that deepens over time rather than becoming routine.
