According to the website 16Personailties my personality type is ENTP. They refer to this personality type as “The Debater”. 16Personalities states, “The ENTP personality type is the ultimate devil’s advocate, thriving on the process of shredding arguments and beliefs and letting the ribbons drift in the wind for all to see”. I also took a separate personality test from a website called PsychCentral. The way they organized their personality types is scoring each person on the Big 5 traits. These 5 traits are extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability and openness to experiences. In this test I scored high in extraversion, a moderate score in agreeableness, a moderate score in conscientious, very low in emotional stability, …show more content…
People who share the ENTP personality type are extraverted and intuitive. Some strengths that follow this personality type is being a quick thinker, charismatic, and good at brainstorming. Some of the weaknesses include being argumentative, intolerant, and they can find it difficult to focus. For the most part I do agree with everything being said. As a maturing young adult I am always trying to improve my weaknesses in my personality. I do tend to be intolerant when it comes to ignorance. If someone is taking the time to talk about a topic in which they have no knowledge or have done no research I quickly write them off and dismiss what they say. I am learning this a bigger issue in my life than I thought as in college I am put in to many group work assignments. When someone in my group does not participate or does not think about what they are saying my first reaction is to get frustrated with the individual. I try to take a deep breath and use this as an opportunity to grow. I will question what they are saying in a kind way, and present evidence and inform them. I have found that people like me better when I’m less argumentative. When searching for information on a potential career path 16personalities says that I could enter the field of entrepreneurship, which is nice because I am a business …show more content…
They had in-depth information about personality type ENTP. Truity refers to this personality type as the “The Visionary”. They stated, “The Visionary relies on their ingenuity to deal with the world around them, and rarely finds preparation necessary. They will often jump into a new situation and trust themselves to adapt as they go”. I couldn’t agree more with this statement. I am constantly trying to solve problems for other people, even if I have no experience or preparation I am confident in my ability to at least look at the situation in a different way.” The ENTP is characteristically entrepreneurial and may be quick to share a new business idea or invention” , stated Truity. I also agree with this statement. Even before I was a business major I was creating business and coming with up with ideas and telling them to my parents. Over all I think this article gives a very detailed and accurate representation of the ENTP
This was also referred to as The Advocate which I thought was very appropriate for our assingment. The results state that The Advocate has a strong sense of morality, likes finding solutions for others and one of the strengths listed was that this personality type makes excellent counselors. This type is known for seeing through manipulation and dishonesty and getting to the heart of matters with truth and sincerity. I can see that all of these personality traits are crucial for helping others and dealing with the conflict that arises when advocating for those who are oppressed and face discrimination. Some of the weaknesses stated for this personality type are perfectionist, impatient, extremely private, sensitive, and burn out easily. As I read the weaknesses, I realized that I need to keep self care a priority throughout my education and future career. It also makes sense that a lot of my self care practices are about introspection and finding balance. I think that this assessment was very accurate of my personality and I enjoyed reading about The Advocate personality
Specifically, the ESFP personality is people orientated, enthusiastic, and outgoing. While lacking in the ability to stay on track and keep focused on the task at hand. All ESFPs prefer to work closely with people and will excel even further when they are surrounded by people they enjoy being around. The career opportunities are almost endless, as long as there is someone there they can communicate with, the ESFP is considerably happy. They connect easily with others and their down-to-earth attitude allows them to have the ability to reflect and adapt to their surroundings. Overall, the future for an ESFP is bright and they are able to do whatever they set their mind
By being an INTP, I have interpreted why some things work in my favor. Being a perceiver allows me to embrace change while keeping any ill-thoughts (regarding changes I do not agree with) to myself. This personality blend, also, allows me to participate in group settings when brainstorming is needed, and having a lower preference in introversion grants me just enough patience to play along with the extroverts to complete the task. When putting two letters together, I have better understood my temperament. “Temperament arises from the regulation of arousal and emotion reliably producing characteristic, habitual responses to experience”, and mine is Intuitive Thinking (NT), so I create many options in my head (Blandin, K., February 2013, para. 4). On the other hand, my personality leads me to situations where I make irrational decisions because I’m not granted enough time to think everything through. As viewed in the presentation, “Lesson 1-Worldview perspective on organizational behavior”, understanding my personality typology, others’ typology, and organizational behavior will allow the workplace to be more efficient because we have a better understanding of ourselves and how we can work together. I’m now able to function in the team because I understand what I offer, how it is useful, and my obligation to the group (Fischer, K. slide
ENTJ, is known as “The Field Marshal” or “The Executive.” Sources say my personality type has the potential to make great CEO’s or politicians. According to my research; ENTJ’s are known to have excellent speaking skills: which can assist in making public addresses or explaining new business models to a board of directors from a power point. ENTJ’s are also known to hold very high standards and expect the same from their peers/ employees; which makes them excellent managers. I personally see the same drive in my own life, mentioned in my research about ENTJ’s; passion for efficiency and producing results. ENTJ’s take all the theoretical knowledge they have obtained and use it to produce
This paper demonstrates the value of utilizing personality assessment tools to recognize my strengths and weaknesses within my behavior. I pride myself on my values and often find myself pushing them onto others. I am a highly motivated individual that takes my work seriously, enjoys advancing in my career and I do what needs to be done to get the job done. My decision-making is often dependent upon the facts and how the outcome will affect others. I need all the details before I make a decision and lack innovation. My extroversion allows me to feel at ease when communicating with others, but I often am to probing in my approach and can seem aggressive in conversation. My leadership style varies depending on the situation. I often know what
However, in reflection of my past teamwork experiences in class, I am often one of the organizers and stronger voices, connecting me with being a natural leader. In reflection of past job experience, I found it related to a low tolerance for incompetency and also being a natural leader, but did not demonstrate being a visionary or argumentative. My past job experience includes refereeing youth soccer matches and serving at Anthony’s Beach Café. My experience refereeing youth soccer matches forced me to become a leader, taking control of parents and the players, allowing me to mature well being in a position of authority. Well working as a server at Anthony’s I have developed very high expectations for myself, displaying my low tolerance for mistakes and increasing my productivity. My ENTJ personality directly connects with various management careers, which is a long-term career goal for me. Being outgoing and a natural leader are personality traits that illuminate a good manager. In order to be a good manager in the future it is also important to recognize and be aware of a
Upon taking the Myers Briggs personality test on the human metrics website I was not surprised that I received the conclusion of an ENTJ or “the natural born leader”. The role of an ENTJ is that you conduct yourself in a manner that is very logical and rational (“Personality”). The Myers Briggs Type Indicator test has been around for over 65 years and has continually evolved to become more accurate in identifying personality traits. I find that the ENTJ type of personality reflections are accurate due to the fact that I am a no nonsense type of leader that likes to take charge and get the job done. In order to become a better leader for your organization you can take the time to educate yourself on the other 15 types of personality traits. This will help a leader in better understanding the views of their coworkers and will give them the tools of deal...
Upon completion of the 16 Personalities personality assessment my results revealed to me that my personality type is “Executive Personality (ESTJ, -A/ -T) (Neris Analytics Limited, 2017)”. ESTJ, -A/ -T stands for Extravert, Sensing, Thinking, Judging. Executive type personalities are those individuals that use tradition and order throughout all of what they do. The values of honesty, dedication and dignity are very important for individuals with this personality type. Executives usually counsel or advise other people. They are deeply imbedded in their communities and families. I would agree with the Myers-Briggs personality assessment regarding these results.
During my Personality Inventory I got ESTP, which means extraverted, sensing, thinking, perceiving. My results really shocked me because Estp people are the kinds that are outgoing, and are consider the risk takers. Being a outgoing person that didn’t come a shock to me because, I have always made friends easy, it’s just something that has never been an obstacle for me. In my opinion, Being consider the risk taker isn’t really something that I see myself. I consider myself to not leave my comfort soon, which can mean a risk to others. The estp personality are also people who stick to their beliefs, from right to wrong. Since I was little I was never considered a bad child, I have always followed the rules. This is a trait that is very important
Since I scored moderately, I fall in both categories. Although some would argue that their results are nowhere near correct, I would say that mine were, for the most part, spot on. I did conjure up a few disagreements; however, a more detailed and longer test might be able to give me a more in depth and accurate rating of my personality. The conclusions of my test say that I am moderately open to experience, highly conscientious, moderately extraverted, and high in both agreeableness and neuroticism.

Do you know someone who is enthusiastic, is affirming, is upbeat, gets along with everyone, has natural leadership skills, and communicates eloquently? Most likely, this person has an ENFJ (Extroverted, iNtuition, Feeling, Judging) personality type. ENFJs are known to be warm and caring, and they thrive to provide guidance to others. They are focused on people, rather than things, ideas, or machines, so they are not too objective or logical and prefer to base their decisions on how they feel about a certain person or situation. They are charismatic, are excellent communicators, and can easily influence or manipulate others, making them suitable for leadership positions and even sales jobs. They are highly
ENFP also known as the campaigner is my personality type (16 personalities). I never realized what my personality type was until after finally doing this paper. It was a very eye opening assignment and made me realize and understand my personality type so much more. It’s exciting to know how I work. It amazes me at how I represent the ENFP exactly how it’s described, it’s crazy. I feel like I can better myself now, knowing that that’s just normal or my personality type. Before I would question myself on why I could never focus on just one task at a time, I would always want to explore more before I was finished. Now that I know that’s normal, I can work on improving myself. The campaigner represents a true free spirit.
My personality type is Extroverted, intuitive, feeling, perceptive or ENFP. According to the description in the exercise, ENFP's are warm, enthusiastic and live their outer life more with intuition and their inner more with feeling. This assessment is consistent with the results that I received in part I of the exercise. I am an extroverted person who enjoys being around and working with people.
