The following is a personality profile of Kofi Annan based on his work.
Kofi Annan is shrewd.
He is empathetic, he feels what others feel and is compassionate towards them. He is philosophical as well: he is open to and intrigued by new ideas and loves to explore them. But, Kofi Annan is also self-controlled: he has control over his desires, which are not particularly intense.
More than most people, his choices are driven by a desire for self-expression.
Considers helping others to guide a large part of what he does: he thinks it is important to take care of the people around him. He is also relatively unconcerned with tradition: he cares more about making his own path than following what others have done.
