The Intuitive Think-vert
My theoretical preference profile as confirmed by the Jung Briggs Meyers Personality Test is an Introvert, iNtuitive, Thinking, Judging (INTJ) individual. The results indicated percentages of 16%, 19%, 34%, and 62%, respectively.
In relation to a business milieu, my personality trait of self-confidence and decisiveness might be erroneously mistaken as arrogance by those who are indecisive. Consequently, to foster a team atmosphere in business surroundings, I must temper when and how I vocalize my input regarding proposed projects or executions of shared assignments. For academic environments, my personality trait might be challenging for an ESFP to successfully share a project unless they equally choose to temper

Even so, communication with people of the sensory/thinking (ST) personality types would require my adhering to realities and effects. In like manner, communication with those of intuitive/feeling (NF) personality traits, would necessitate me to direct intercommunication on relevant theories, ideas, or concepts. Fortunately, the intuitive aspects of NTs and NFs along with the thinking features of the NTs and STs provide for mutually effective business or academia intercommunication. Therefore, whether for teamwork projects in business or collaborating assignments in academia, I would deftly work well with these two personality …show more content…
Combine this research to identify the person's preference group and personality type. (Also, I would never reveal to the subject person nor inform a third party person that I “analyzed” them with the Jung test, because the one “analyzed” may be offended and the third party person may be indiscreet.)

Having used myself as a case study and getting my results from the MBTI assessment, I got to deduce that my type or class was ENTJ. After analysis, the test deductions considered me to have a moderate preference of 3 aspects that were extraversion over introversion (44%), intuition over sensing (50%), and thinking over feeling (12%) and finally I slightly preferred judging over perceiving (22%).
The purpose of this analysis is to identify my personality type, temperament, and how it relates to my behavior and success in the workplace. The first phase of this paper is to identify my four letter personality type using the Jung Typology Test which is based on Carl Jung’s and Isabel Briggs Myers personality type theory (Jung Typology Test, 2016). I will also discuss where I fall within Keirsey’s Temperaments; this personality typing combines two of the four sets of preferences in to four distinct temperament categories (Personalitypage, 2015a). Keirsey identified four basic temperaments known as Guardian, Rational, Artisan, and Idealist (Keirsey, n.d.). I will explain each of the four letters of my type and provide specific examples of how they relate to me in both a professional and personal level. In the final phase I will discuss my personality strengths and weaknesses and how I can use the assessment for overall personal growth.
Intuitive tend to look at the big picture then look at the facts. They are not hands on they would rather think through a problem and reflect on new possibilities. They look at new ways to do things even though they don’t know how they will initiate the new ideas. I am about one percent more intuitive than sensing so I tend to go between the two personality traits. I do believe I have the gift of interpreting technical information into laymen terms, which is the intuitive personality trait.
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
The ability to be self-aware, identify specific personality traits, and assess personal strengths and weaknesses are powerful tools for lifelong personal and professional success. One of the most popular and trusted personality assessment tools utilized today is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (CPP, 2016). According to Meyers-Briggs Personality test my personality type is ESFJ also known as “The Caregiver.” An ESFJ is one of 13 personality types identified through the Myers-Briggs assessment tool (HumanmetricsInc, 2016). This assignment will identify the different aspects of my personality and how they work together. It will also evaluate strengths, weaknesses and organizational behaviors in an effort to maximize professional performance.
The Jung Personality Type Test is familiar to me as I have taken it before and know of its general premise. The test is popular in the business world but is heavily criticized by academics due to its low validity and reliability. I have taken the test several times and never received the same personality type twice. This does not mean that there have not been similarities in my results; on every test certain aspects of the results stay true and the percentages of specific personality traits stay within close range. The result of my Jung Test-- for this assignment-- classified my personality in the ENFJ typology with dominance in both the Extrovert and Introvert (E-I) traits equally, Intuition, Feelings and Judging. While I believe that we
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.
reveal aspects of an individual character or psychological makeup. Carl Jung was a psychiatrist best known for theories of the Collective Unconscious, in this assignment I took the personality test that Carl Jung created based off personality and behavior. When completing the test my personality trait revealed to me as ISFJ with an individual preference in four dimensions characterizing my personality type including Introvert (12%), Sensing (16%), Feeling (53%), and Judging (9%). After reading the analysis of each preference I noticed that I have a few similarities that relates to my personal life and wellbeing
The Myers and Briggs Analysis is a series of questions that when answered are examined and grouped together in order to determine the personalities of those taking this test. This particular test can result in sixteen different outcomes or types of personalities, which is determined by four different categories that judge if you are introverted or extroverted, use your senses or your intuition, your choice to think or use your feelings, and finally if you are judgmental or perceptive. These series of questions are designed to judge our personalities and help us to determine which career pathways we will be most suited for based on our personality traits and abilities to work well with others, which is important for our future decisions.
I(introvert), N(iNutitive), T(thinking), and J(judging) is one of the rarest of the sixteen psychological types and accounts for 1-2% of the population and just 0.8% of women. It is often a challenge to find like-minded individuals who are able to keep up with our relentless intellectualism and their chess-like maneuvering. Those of us with the INTJ personality type are imaginative, ambitious yet reserved, and amazingly curious. Good
Allport defines personality as ‘the dynamic organisation within the individual of those psychological systems that determine his unique adjustment to his environment’ (Allport, 1937). An individual’s unique personality traits and attributes are a powerful indicator of how he/she will interact with the work environment. The difference between average and outstanding employees can often be solely personality related. As the employee is the most valuable asset to the company, ‘selecting the right employee during the process is critical’ (Carbery and Cross, 2013, pp. 41-53)

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,
My Myers-Briggs personality type is ESTJ (“Jung,” 2016). In accordance with Jung’s personality types, my two-letter temperament is ET or extraverted thinking (“Personality Page”, 2015). ESTJ’s are normally enthusiastic, stable, dependable and not personally threatened by conflict or criticism (“Personality Page,” 2015). ESTJ’s weaknesses include a tendency to believe that they are always right, and they are generally uncomfortable with change. (“Personality Page,” 2015). In the workplace ESTJ’s are natural leaders, loyal, and typically hard working and dependable (“Personality Page,” 2015). Generally, all 16 personality types must get along, and through learning about ESTJ, I will be better equipped to navigate the business world. Needs Work
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.
