My Myers Personality Test Type

The Myers-Briggs personality test was created in 1944 to help women in WWII find jobs that were best suited for them, based on their personality type. As I have been getting closer to graduating high school and entering the real world, I too have been looking for a career that I will love so much, I will be stoked to wake up every morning to go to work. After taking the Myers-Briggs, and doing some deep self-reflection, I have found some consistencies in what I am interested in and how that reflects on my character. Three of my most defining character traits align with my INFP personality type and explain why I am interested in certain career paths. These character traits are principles, passion, and selflessness.

My confirmed profile is ENTJ according to the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI); this means that in business and school I am inclined to lead, I deal with things with reason and logic. I like solving complex problems when I see inefficiencies. I love planning for the long term, setting goals, and being organized. I am a pursuer of knowledge and enjoy sharing what I’ve learned. The letter E stands for extroversion, which reflects how I become energized by interacting with others. The letter N stands for intuition, which signifies how I take in information. Intuition roots from within, which means I take information from what I believe in. The letter T stands for thinking, which represents how I process information. Thinking means I process my information based on logic. The letter J stands for judging, which characterizes how I integrate the information that’s been processed. Judging means I like a planned approach to doing things. (Myers).

Knowing your Myers Briggs type indicators can be very beneficial as a leader in an organization. This will mark the third time in my career I have done this test, the first two were in Navy leadership schools. I have always found these tests beneficial in helping me deal with subordinates and peers alike. According to (Jung, N.D.) I am an ESTJ, this is not a surprise as I have been that before twice. What did surprise me is that I am now older and with a 6 year gap since my last test I am less of an ESTJ now. So in the next few pages I will discuss each portion, extravert, sensing, thinking, and judging and then apply that to my Overall type. Let’s begin with an overview of the ESTJ.

Hi Thomas great post. I agree the ENTJ have the drive for leadership and they will make the work is complete and are force on their career. One must keep in mind when operating a business the work reflect around a team of people. After I took the Myers-Briggs personality profile ESTJ, the result indicated I am an extravert person which perceive to focus involve organization of people. The personality trait can help with areas for improvement to increase your growth to become a leader who can teach, train and learn by setting the example for others.

Based on the assessment, I am characterized as an Introversion Sensing Thinking and Judging (ISTJ’s). My mental dominate function is Sensing introvert (Si) which means that I value past experiences. I work very hard to fulfill commitments by asking questions and setting appropriate time to work on it. When I am in any group setting, I personally prefer clear team roles before working on an assignments because I do not have to take on extra tasks. I make majority of my decisions based on my feelings and my past experiences. For instance, how I dress is based off my emotions. I tend to be very quiet and serious. I am very supportive of my families and friends decisions in life. Often, I assist my friends with an assignment that they don’t have a clear understanding of such as statistics or nonprofit organizations. I am sympathetic and understanding of people situations. We all at one time been in a rough spot. I take my responsibilities serious. For example, I tend to be very hard on myself, if I score low on an exam.

In this week discussion post we had to determine our personality type by using the Humanmetrics assemement. My personality type is determined as ENTJ, abbreviation for Extravert, Intuitive, Thinking, Judging. According to Humanmetrics’ (2013), ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct. This may be expressed with the charm and finesse of a world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult leader. The ENTJ requires little encouragement to make a plan. The ENTJ personality type fits me in some ways because I will have a plan all thought out and laid out but will not go through with the plan because I think it is not right. But as soon as I hear or receive those encouraging words to go forth with the plan. The plan comes out to be successful but this goes to show you that I sometimes have doubt in myself, which we all do sometimes. Over the years my personality type has changed according to the assessment. ENTJ is decisive meaning strong-minded, firm, effectively and determined. Becoming a manager in food services have groom me to have all the traits of being decisive. By having a

After taking multiple typology tests offered by various websites and sifting through the often conflicting results, I concluded that I am an ENFJ personality type. First, I took the test offered by Humanmetrics, which

My Personality Profile results are ENTJ which is an acronym that translates to: Extraverted Intuitive Thinking Judging. The Myers Briggs personality test’s results summary begins with an illustration of the personality by explaining that an ENTJ would not have any interest in window seat on an airplane because they cannot control what they see. In contrast to the illustration, I always enjoy the window seat simply for the scenery. Next, the summary begins by stating people with this personality make-up have a tendency to marshal and direct. Though I may have examples of having this tendency, I don’t think it accurately sums up my personality. I do relate mostly to the explanation of how ENTJ make plans and are compelled to see these plans through though they only have importance to me. In conclusion I do relate to some of the findings in the overall summary, but not all.

I am an ENFJ. ENFJ stands for extraversion, intuition, feeling, and judgement. According to this cite, I “have tremendous power to manipulate others” but I also “see the big picture.” Another thing the flattering website pointed out was “ENFJs know and appreciate people. Like most NFs, (and Feelers in general), they are apt to neglect themselves and their own needs for the needs of others.” On a different page, I am told that an ENFJ is a “Natural born leader.” and “The ENFJ is ambitious, but their ambition is not self-serving: rather, they feel personally responsible for making the world a better place.”

The Myers-Briggs Type (MBTI) was taken to discover my personality type. There were four categories that resulted in my personality type. These categories where I focus my attention—Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I), the way I take in information—Sensing (S) or Intuition (N), the way I make decisions—Thinking (T) or Feeling (F) and how I deal with the outer world—Judging (J) or Perceiving (P). Based on the responses to the assessment, it reported that my MBTI type is ESTJ, which is also described as Extraverted Thinking with Sensing Judging.

Do you know what personality type you are? There are eight personality types in the Myers- Briggs personality test. The eight personality types are Extravert, Introvert, Sensing, Intuition, Thinking, Feeling, Judging, and Perceiving. E is for Extravert which means to act before you think. I is for Introvert which means to think before you act. S is for Sensing which means using ones five senses to observe based on thoughts and actions on concrete things. Also, not trusting your gut feeling. N is for Intuition which relies more on abstract or theoretical information rather than previous thoughts and experiences from others. T is for Thinking which means making decisions on what seems logical and reasonable without using your feelings. F is for Feeling which means using your emotions and empathy of a decision based on people being affected on the outcome. J is for Judging which is a person that has a plan that is organized, prepared, and always on time. P is for Perceiving which means to plan as they go and are more flexible. This person is also adaptive and is up for new challenges as well as opportunities. The Myers-Briggs profile is based on Carl Jung the Neo-Freudian theorist. Which profile do you think you would fall under just by reading what each letter means? Now take The Jung Typology Test and see if the four letters you picked as being you are the same the test profiled you as being, you will be surprise of the outcome!

According to the Myers-Briggs Type Indiciator my type is INFJ. Reading through the “Introduction to Myers-Briggs Type and Teams” pamphlet I indentified with many of the characteristics. I am very interested in creating a supportive, meaningful work environment for staff and those I interact with (one of the reasons I choose this degree program). Additionally, I have experienced stress when attempting to handles problems without asking for assistance.

I have done the Myers-Briggs test and my personality seems to match with the ENTJ type. I’m surprised that the 72 questions in the Myers- Briggs questionnaire gives a perfect indication about your

To begin, my Myers-Briggs personality type has changed over time. Last May, I took this test and found I was an INFJ personality type; this time, my results showed ESFJ. The difference in my results are balanced, as I am 9% Extroverted, 6% Sensing, 50% Feeling, and 19% Judging. The first two criterions that changed are low percentages, meaning that I show a slight preference for extroversion over introversion, and sensing perception over intuition.

A person’s personality is his or her essence. It is what guides decisions, emotions, and even thoughts. Some may wonder if it is possible to explore every nuance of such a complex part of a being, but there are ways to determine what type of personality a person has, and then branch off into a more detailed examination of that person specifically. Combined with other factors, such as personality disorders and the environment that someone has grown up in, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI, test and analysis can determine an accurate portrayal of a personality. Created in 1943 by Katherine Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers, it is a system made up of four basic functions and sub functions that combine to make a personality type. The mother and daughter team constructed it off of Jung’s theories (History 2). Based on this system, one of the most common personality types in the US population is called an ESTJ, and one of the least common personality types is called an INFJ. There are many differences and similarities between these two types. An ESTJ personality, overall, is practical, fact-based, and outgoing, whereas an INFJ personality is more private and makes decisions based on feelings; however, both are organized people who make good leaders and are capable of great success in roles that involve helping others.
