+5
Risks
Both states present a level of ‘cognitive dissonance’.
High level of empathy required to manage either extreme
The risk and impact of losing a +5 is significantly higher. However, the output of customer work possible in this state is very powerful and attractive to people in more passive states.
The negative state inherently carries the risk of a social media nightmare, because in general people are empathetic and will respond to active distress.
Action
The effort and empathy required to alter a -5 may be too great/costly.
-5s can be turned around, sometimes with startlingly positive results.
A heightened state of awareness and an ability to react quickly to changes in state should be considered vital
Characteristics/ Behaviours
MORE THAN
A heightened state of love or hate with everything that entails
A 5 emotional state is one that is now actively being driven by that feeling to exclusion of common sense.
​
Customers may move to -5 or +5 but cannot sustain this.
An unstable transitional state.
+5s are ‘passionate advocates’: -5s are ‘passionate antagonists’. Both states are characterised as highly active and temporarily consuming. This is the triumph of emotion over logic and can be demonstrated through laughter and tears.
