Sitting within the 'Structure, Operations, & Practical Work' family, the 'Kind Helper' occupational archetype brings a trusting, considerate, care and support oriented vibe, and covers roles where the most important consideration is to help people with care and patience. Driven by their modest, trusting, and above all else considerate nature (Compassion) and guided by an unhurried and measured approach to ensure everything is considered (Energy), these roles tend to be filled by absolute angels who literally make it their job to support those who require help kindly and compassionately, regardless of the nature of the help.  

Legends of slow and steady winning the race, those aligned with the 'Kind Helper' archetype will generally thrive where their kindness and reliability make the difference, and speed of results matters almost zero compared to the kindness and patience it takes to get there.
