Coding the Values Exercise

I have analysed the database by coding the responses.  I clustered the responses into groups and counted them.

Creative (creative, imaginative, cultured) 13
Intellect (intelligence, wisdom, insight, inventive, measured, innovative, competent, educated, knowledgeable) 19
Communicating (communicating, thinking, analytical, thoughtful, understanding, direct, forthright, focussed, incisive) 8
Honesty (honesty, trust, hold to account, integrity, principled, stubborn, rightness, truthful) 13
Courage (courage, bravery, unafraid, determined, strong, self assured) 8
Caring (caring, friendly, considerate, good natured, human, light hearted, understanding, supportive, interested in me, generosity)  19
Open minded (open minded, forward thinking, sees possibilities, plays long game, risk taking, energetic) 9
Dependable (dependable, reliable, stoical, calm, earnest, quiet, unassuming, strong, hard working) 12
Collaborative (collaborative, humanity, shares knowledge)  7.

I have had difficulty sorting out intelligence from communication.  High quality communication requires good reasoning and ability to convey information, similar to intelligence.

Some responses did not fit into a neat category, so have not been included.  I may need to do this, but feel at present they do not add to the picture.

I will seek feedback to see where to take it next.
