After completing the Insightgame.org quiz I learned even more about myself than I already knew! The first result was ESTJ which meant that I was "Assertive, practical, rational, loyal,
opinionated and decisive, the ESTJ is an organized, take-charge person who brings others into
line by assigning tasks and roles, giving clear-cut instructions, following up regularly to check
progress and giving formal recognition to those who do as they’ve been told." I feel that this is
an accurate description of my personality. I can see this mentality in my work life, school,
and even within my personal life. It also talks about how ESTJ's do not like to be innovative with certain policies and pre-exsisting cases but I feel that Personally if i can find a better way to do something or innovate a better model I will most certainly do so!
I was in close race to an ESFJ which is similar to the one I just talked about and is exactly like my personality as well. It says that " ESFJs are outgoing,
sociable, practical and organized. They pride themselves on their reflexive skills to harmonize,
entertain and nurture others. Duty, personal service, manners and social order come second-
nature to this type. Warm, friendly and naturally talented at working with others and organizing
people and events."
I feel that I do a great job of making others feel welcome, planning events and social functions for family and friends, along with being able to nuture others in a constructive way.
Both of these personality Profiles do a great job of explaining the personality types that we deal with on a daily basis along with showing us how our personalities come across to others.
My F and T are pretty even as well. You do a nice job of explaining the types and how they fit with your experience of yourself. I'm interested in how the S preference manifests in your work, especially. Do you think you prefer to use your fives senses to gather information, rather than working with abstract concepts and loose deadlines?
ReplyDeleteKatie, I've known you for three years and these descriptions are dead-on! You are very assertive and very loyal. You are also very sociable and mesh well with basically any group and that's not always easy to do!
ReplyDelete@Karen, I feel that in my work I use a mixture of traditional and creative tactics to complete tasks. I like to have guidelines and deadlines. Although I am extremely organized I am a procrastinator so deadlines keep me in check.
ReplyDelete@Kristen, I appreciate your comments because that is honestly my goal in life to mesh with all kinds of people and still be extremely loyal to all my friends!!!
This is funny to me for a couple reasons. Our personalities and social status at school often cause disagreements between us. However, I still find you to be a welcoming person anyway. I'm the type of person to hate asking anybody for help especially from somebody I've had disagreements in with in the past, but when I absolutely needed it, you were open and I appreciate that about you. "Warm, friendly and naturally talented at working with others and organizing." Agreed!
