Firstly, the ISITM provides two Style Indicator orientations:

1) Advocating: Individuals put forward ideas and offer logical and rational reasons to convince others of their point of view.
2) Uniting: Individuals advocate for their position by encouraging others with a sense of shared mission and exciting possibilities.

Secondly, it includes five distinctive influencing styles that people demonstrate:

1) Rationalizing—Using logic and reasoning to present your ideas.
2) Asserting—Stating preferences clearly and applying pressure.
3) Negotiating—Compromising and making concessions to find common ground.
4) Inspiring—Influencing others through shared purposes and broader possibilities.
5) Bridging—Engaging and connecting with others.
