1. Relate your four letter Myers-Briggs classification and state your reasons you agree(or disagree)
with your outcome. My classification is ESTP-A which means I am more extraverted than
introverted, which I agree with. I am more observant than intuitive which I also agree with.
Thinking which I agree with heavily. And lastly, P which I agree I am more inclined to behave
like a P, but I actually enjoy living like a ‘judging’ personality type a lot more since it’s less
stressful.
2. Did it surprise you? No not really. I was surprised by the overall classification of Entrepreneur,
but agree with each individual category.
3. Did you learn anything? I’ve always thought of myself more on the intellectual side, but after
seeing myself get observant/sensing over intuition I thought about it and it’s true that I’m
more practical/realistic than an intellectual mind.
4. Did it explain why you preferred something in the past? Yes, my behavior in groups is
summarized pretty well by the -A which is assertive personality type.
5. Can you think of a time when you had to use a non-preferred behavioral preference? What was
the outcome? All of the time I have to be more feeling than thinking because it’s common to
interact with very feeling type people and you should be accommodating in that scenario.
They are also better at making friends!
1. You are putting together a team for a project. What Myers-Briggs classifications would you
want to make up an ideal team and why? I think there are a multitude of classifications
that could make a good team. The only essential variety I’d say is the need for at least one
Sensing and one Intuitive type and at least one extravert. Everything else can go either
way in my opinion.
2. You are about to hire an administrative support person for a group of engineers. Name one
classification type you would want and one you would never hire. Explain why. Want: ISTP
because they will be practical and make logical decisions based on constraints which is
what I need from them. Never: ENFJ because they think too much, do too little, and make
decisions based off their feelings and not reasoning. (Disclaimer: This is all theoretical)
