I consider myself as an ‘on ground’ observer for Australia and can argue that our generations are 5-6 years younger than North America’s.
Therefore; when you encounter a public figure from a society which does not have the same saeculum as ours, you need to consider how they fit archetypically wise with their society.
For example; Ali Khamenei (1939), Alexander Lukashenko (1954) and Vladimir Putin (1952) have very Reactive personalities. However, they are all members of their society’s Reactive generations, which were born roughly from the late 1930s to late 1950s (roughly). Going back into the histories of these regions, it explains why both Lenin and Stalin had personalities consistent with that of members of a Reactive generation, well they were members of their societies Reactive generation. The same went for Ataturk (1981), Khrushchev (1894) and an contemporary example Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (1956) having Civic personalities, well they were members of their societies Civic Generations. To give another example; South Africa Trevor Noah seems to have an adaptive personality, well South Africans born from say the early 1970s to early 1990s, belong to an Adaptive generation which grew up in a Crisis. Also, you need to account for turning and generation boundaries in societies, even those on roughly the same saeculum as ours.
However; every generation is composed of people of every archetype, however one archetype dominates each generation. But you need to know what a particular society's generational lineup is like as well.
Since every generation has people of every archetype, what would cause someone to fall outside of their archetype like someone born in 1979 in the USA that was like a prophet in personality and views?
It's extremely unlikely that an American born in 1979 will have similar experiences to a German born in 1979.
They watched the same movies and TV series, played with the same toys and games, ate the same junkfood, were afraid of Chernobyl/WW3/no pensions for them... they may have more things in common than things not in common.
