AIM Framework glossary
AIM Profile (Individual, Group, or System)
Canonical definition
An AIM profile is a characteristic pattern or distribution of AIM Weights, estimated from repeated episodes, contexts, or behaviours for a person, group, or institution.
Explanation
Over many episodes you can build up a picture of someone (or an organisation) as typically more A-driven, more I-driven, or more M-driven in the situations that matter. This profile is not a fixed label but a statistical summary that helps explain why certain patterns (like burnout, status anxiety, or creative flourishing) keep recurring.
