Understanding My ISFJ Personality Type: Strengths, Weaknesses and Applications

My Myers Briggs type is ISFJ. I am 22% Introvert, 38% Sensing, 62% Feeling, and 11% Judging. People that have this type do best in occupations that have a lot of people interaction. It is also said that ISFJ has great potential in the health field or in social working. Some strength ISFJ’s have can include: easy to work with, good memory, and good with people. Some not so great things about ISFJ’s include; they feel like they have to be needed, they can easily feel unappreciated and can be bad at delegating. “While their work ethic is high on the ISFJ priority list, their families are the centers of their lives.” (Margaret) ISFJ is one of the sixteen personality types identified in the Myers Briggs Typing. About 9% to 14% of the population
We all seem to value our work and are all well organized and we share a lot of the same strengths. When it comes down to our differences I think they are just slightly different enough so we can view the matter at a different angle.
With the information I have been given about my personality type I can use it to help me become a better manager by, understanding that not all people think the same way. That even though others may not approach an issue the way I would don’t mean they’re not capable of completing the task given. “The goal of knowing about personality type is to understand and appreciate differences between people. As all types are equal, there is no best type.” (The Myers & Briggs Foundation)
From all the readings I have looked at from this assignment I found this to be the most helpful. It also made it easier for me to understand what I was looking at.
