BUREAUCRAT
ESTJ
life's administrators; thrive on order and continuity; Being extraverted, their focus involves organization of
people, which translates into supervision.
The ESTJ is not
afraid to stand up for what she believes is right even in the face of overwhelming odds. ESTJs
are able to make the tough calls. |
SUPERMAN
ESFJ
host and hostess of the world; Intuition orients their feeling to the new and to
the possible, thus they often enjoy working to manifest a
humanitarian vision
|
HERO
ENFJ
smooth talking persuaders
ENFJs are the benevolent 'pedagogues' of humanity. They have tremendous charisma by which
many are drawn into their nurturant tutelage and/or grand schemes. Many ENFJs have
tremendous power to manipulate others with their phenomenal interpersonal skills and unique
salesmanship. But it's usually not meant as manipulation
|

PRINCE
ENTJ
life's natural leaders; ENTJs enjoy organizing and mobilizing people
according to their own theories and tactically based agendas
ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct. This may be expressed with the charm
and finesse of a world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult
leader; ENTJs are often "larger than life" in describing their projects or proposals. |
| ISTP
ready to try anything once
Will lie
dormant, saving their energy until a project or an adventure worthy of their time comes
along--and then they launch themselves at it. The apparently frenzied state that inevitably
ensues is actually much more controlled than it appears--ISTPs always seem to know what
they're doing when it comes to physical or mechanical obstacles--but the whole chain of events
presents a confusing and paradoxical picture to an outsider. |
ISFP
sees much but shares little |
INFP
performing noble service to aid society
INFPs live primarily in a rich inner world of introverted Feeling. Being inward-turning, the
natural attraction is away from world and toward essence and ideal. |
INTP
a love of problem solving |
| ISTJ
doing what should be done;
ISTJs often give the initial impression of being aloof and
perhaps somewhat cold. Effusive expression of emotional warmth is not something that ISTJs
do without considerable energy loss.
ISTJs are most at home with "just the facts, Ma'am." They seem to perform at highest
efficiency when employing a step-by-step approach.
|
ISFJ
a high sense of duty
ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their "need to be needed." In
extreme cases, this need is so strong that standard give-and-take relationships are deeply
unsatisfying to them; however, most ISFJs find more than enough with which to occupy
themselves within the framework of a normal life. (Since ISFJs, like all
SJs, are very much
bound by the prevailing social conventions, their form of "service" is likely to exclude any
elements of moral or political controversy; they specialize in the local, the personal, and the
practical.) |
ENFP
giving life an extra squeeze
ENFPs often have strong, if unconvential, convictions on various issues related to their Cosmic
View. They usually try to use their social skills and contacts to persuade people gently of the
rightness of these views; his sometimes results in their negle cting their nearest and dearest
while flitting around trying to save the world. |
INTJ
everything has room for improvement
INTJs are known as the "Systems Builders" of the types, perhaps in part because they possess the
unusual trait combination of imagination and reliability. Whatever system an INTJ happens to be working
on is for them the equivalent of a moral cause to an INFJ; both perfectionism and disregard for authority
may come into play, as INTJs can be unsparing of both themselves and the others on the project. Anyone
considered to be "slacking," including superiors, will lose their respec
e.g. Augustus Caesar, Hannibal ( Carthaginian military leader) |
| ESTP
ultimate realists;
Gamesmanship is the calling card of the ESTP. Persons of this type have a natural drive to best
the competition. Some of the most successful salespersons are
ESTPs. P.T. Barnum ("Never
give a sucker an even break") illustrates the unscrupulous contingent of this type.
|
ESFP
you only go around once in life
The dominant function of ESFPs is concerned with the reality that is perceived through the
senses. This type's prime directive is to examine the tangible through taste, touch, sight,
feeling and hearing. ESFPs' need for new experiences surely results from this function. Feeling
gives focus to the collected information, producing the amiable nature of this type. As
perceivers, ESFPs do not linger on moral concerns unless it is in service of a Greater Good
and/or a unifying cause. |
INFJ
an inspiration to others
|
ENTP
one exciting challenge after another
"Clever" is the word that perhaps describes ENTPs best.
ENTPs are usually verbally as well as cerebrally quick, and generally love to argue--both for its
own sake, and to show off their often-impressive skills. They tend to have a perverse sense of
humor as well, and enjoy playing devil's advocate. They sometimes confuse, even inadvertently
hurt, those who don't understand or accept the concept of argument as a sport.
ENTPs are as innovative and ingenious at problem-solving as they are at verbal gymnastics; on
occasion, however, they manage to outsmart themselves. |
