Every human being has a confirm personality or MBTI preference profile. While all preferences are not the same, they essentially affect how individuals behave. If we understand and know our preference profile, it will be relatively easy to deal with people of various personality profiles. In this elaborate essay, the author took the Jungian test to confirm his MBTI preference profile. Furthermore, realizing that preferences are different, the author similarly took and wrote down an absolute preference profile. This essay additionally explained two public situations- at the workplace and in school where the MBTI preference profile was necessary to solve difficult situations and how they would be handled differently with the knowledge acquired …show more content…
This result means that in business, my personality type is valuable in management positions because there is an element of creativity I often apply to ensure that people around me are meticulously catered for. Furthermore, from a curious research, my personality type- INFJ represent only 2% in the general population but accounts for a substantial percentage of leadership positions in various workplaces (Myers & McCaulley, 1998). Obviously, as an INFJ personality, I’m very idealistic and often seek a closure and completion of any business transaction. This apparently reflects the J preference. Additionally, I’m a “dreamer and a doer”. In my dictionary, nothing, as far as business or creativity related matters is concerned, there is no impossibility. That is why as a departmental manager in my organization, I earnestly encourage creativity to simplify tasks for my …show more content…
I did not have to look far away before spotting someone who has the direct opposite of my personality type profile. His name is Donald Trump, the current president of the U.S. As an ESTP personality type, he enjoys seeing people around him and also being around people, especially if those people are loyal to him. This explains the E preference. Furthermore, Donald Trump, from all indications, is not an idealist person rather he thrives on facts and details. This is a reflection of the S preference. All his decisions are essentially based on logic and reason. From studying personality types, someone who makes decisions based on logic and reason is a thinker and does not rely on feelings (Truity, n.d.). Additionally, he is someone that is spontaneous in whatever he does. This is an apparent indication that he does not rely much on planning rather he thrives in a strong perception. This is a reflection of the P preference. While the ESTP personality type makes up 4% of the entire world population, people in this preference are very energetic and have an instinct to beat any competition they participate in. One characteristic of ESTP is that failure is not an option and the admittance of weakness is regarded as an absolute failure. This is a real description of Donald Trump, who does not and regards apologizing as a sign of weakness
In the article “Dealing with People”, Greg McGrew explains that different types of personality to solve the problems of people’s relationship in our society. He classifies people by four types that are dominants, expressives, analyticals, and amiables. Greg begins with dominants who are forceful, confident, sociable, outgoing, and confrontational tend to threat their mental. Secondly, he describes expressives who are also quite forceful and reluctant to reject a suggestion due to concern about relationship. Talking with them is good method of treating expressive people. Then, he points out that analytical people deliberate to get the right answer. Even though they are superior in making decision, they need time to think how to answer the question.
For this project; I will be discussing the findings of my personality type. According to “Jung’s Personality Test”, I am an ENTJ. Various sources point to this type as;” The Executive.” The research I have done has brought tremendous insight into; who I am as a person, the functions of my thinking process and how to utilize my strengths to be more of an efficient/successful person.

The bases of this paper will be based on the results that I had obtained when I took the Myers-Briggs personality test. The results that I had obtained was that I was determined to be an ENFJ. I will go into depth about letter and how each represents that a specific aspect of my personality. The results that I had received were not what I had expected, but the more I read about the trait the more I realized how it suited me. I will also talk about the information that I had found useful from the book, Type Talk at Work: How the 16 Personalities Types Determine Your Success on the Job by Otto Kroeger, which gave me insight on how to interact with other personality types especially in the work environment. The information that I absorbed from the personality test and from the book will go into use in my personal and work life so that both environments will be cohesive and peaceful.

According to Carl Jung’s typology theory each individual develops personal preferences which become the foundation for how they face life’s challenges and interact with others. Based on this knowledge Isabel Briggs Myers developed the Myers-Briggs Type indicator (MBTI). This test helps individuals identify and study their individual preference and those of others. After taking the Jung Typology Test, which is based on the MBTI, it was confirmed that my four dominate personality preferences are Introversion, iNtuition, Thinking and Judging. Each personality preference is discussed in detail including strengths and weaknesses. The combination of the four make me a INTJ of the world. This is also discussed in detail including strengths, weaknesses,

The Jung Typology Test is designed to give the participant a 4-letter formula which describes strength preferences of one’s personality type. The formula is based on whether the participant favors Extraversion or Introversion, Sensing or iNtuition, Thinking or Feeling, and Judging or Perceiving when it comes to the participant’s general attitude. One will also receive a Temperament, which is based on one’s personality type formula, and can be used to make somewhat accurate predictions of the participants preferred behavior. In this essay I will discuss the results that I received after taking the test. Having a personality type that prefers extraversion, sensing, feeling, and judging comes with many strengths and weaknesses when working in
As we live our lives each day we probably do not contemplate our personality types or how our types intertwine themselves in our mannerisms and actions. I recently took a personality test from the “Jung Typology Test”. The test revealed that I am an extravert, sensing, thinking, and judging which we will refer to as an ESTJ throughout this discussion. The personality test reveals your four types of personality along with your two temperaments associated with your type. As an ESTJ, I fall into the SJ (sensing, judging) temperament. In this discussion, I will attempt to explain what I have learned about myself through the personality test as well as correlate my type with my temperament. With the information revealed in tests, I will reflect
There are many people in this world; no two people are the same. When considering personality theories it is important to note that not all theories apply to all situations or all people. Different theories have different approaches. It is important to know the person before making assumptions about the proper theory to apply to the person or in any given situation. The purpose of this paper is to analysis how different personality theorists could interoperate different individual circumstances and behaviors based on case examples provided by the instructor.
After taking the online personality test I learned that I am an INTJ personality. Consequently, this was not a big surprise for me because I had already taken a similar test in my psychology class and ended up with the same result. I did not learn how accurate the test was the first time since I did not do further analysis on the exact meaning of my personality type. The 16 personality type’s website de...
Personality is massive part of an individual’s identity. Our personalities dictate our patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting. An individual’s personality exposes them to predispositions and habits that influence their actions and lives. Early on, personality assessments consisted of physical features ranging from head shape and facial characteristics to body type. In today’s world, personality assessments are mainly based around traits. Traits are simply descriptions of one’s habitual patterns of behavior, thought and emotion. The most popular personality assessment is the Five-Factor Model, also known as The Big Five. This model allows us to describe people based on the five main traits/dimensions. These traits are extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience. Each of these five traits measures a different aspect of one’s personality. Extraversion is based on one’s level of engagement with the world,
The Jung Typology Test described me and my habits exactly. In addition, my reading and research has helped me realize there are no “good” or “bad” personality types just different ones with both strengths and weaknesses but they are all relative. While one may compliment others better than another, all are needed in order for the workplace to be successful.
It is important for a brands personality to match up with that of its intended target customers. Reading through some marketing sites Dr. Brian Monger situated his words in a way that I like best for the task of creating a brand image. Dr. Monger stated “ The task of creating a brand image often needs to move beyond attributes or feelings, to include the ultimate consequences of product use and the relationship of product use to people’s life-styles, needs, and values. A positioning strategy that focuses only on attributes or feelings can be shallow and less effective than one that is based on a richer knowledge of the customer.” Simply put make your brand relate to the intended buyer on a personal level, one that hits home with the things that they want and like to do. The understanding needs to be met that each target market will have different relations to products from the other. High priced cars can b...
Hans Eysneck suggested that personality had three dimensions: extraversion-introversion, emotional stability - neuroticism, and psychoticism. Today, after the findings of Robert McCrae and Paul Costa, that theory has been expanded to include openness to experience, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. The positives of this theory are in its clarity. Being able to pinpoint traits and tie a personality to it are very advantageous. The big disadvantage is that trait theory fails to address the development of traits, and gives no theories into personality
I am an ISTJ with unique personality strengths and weaknesses. My strengthens are being hardworking, productive, efficient, and driven (Kroeger, Thuesen, & Rutledge, 2002, p. 306). In opposition, being compulsive, inexpressive, and driven by routines are my weaknesses (Kroeger et al, 2002, pp. 308-309). The Prentice Hall Self-Assessment increased awareness of more personality strengths and weaknesses for my consideration.
