I think the "silent" part, is they don't push their personal force around. They often have quite a considerable amount of it, contained. The only time they yank it out, is when someone else is being pushy with them and they have to, for whatever reason, push back. Then it comes out like a big stick or a granite wall. "You shall not pass!". This often surprises the less observant. They had pegged that person as either a quiet one, or a joker who never takes anything seriously.
Even the young Delta's I have known, don't project a look at the door. When they decide to go, they get up and do it, right then. No inner struggle, totally in the moment.
Perhaps thats a key. Delta's have swift reactions to a moment and have little problems dealing within it. Quick thinkers who work out a complicated issue, in double time and then act. They don't waste a lot of time on idle speculation, if action is called for.
I also think the Delta surprise of being looked up to or in charge, stems from their lack of want to lead, so don't really imagine others would think they should. Sure, they'll do it, but its not something they look at as a goal.
As an aside, in the more modern, global, progressive business model, Delta leaders, are exactly who are needed. They have zero problem working in groups, giving kudos to those who do the real work and shutting down those who do not. They also have no problem dumping plans and ideas that are jut not working out, no matter how much money or time have been put into them. They tend to be non-traditional thinkers. Coming at things from more than one level, before deciding if its worth more effort to see play out.
