My Reflection on the Myers Briggs

In class we took the Myers Briggs test. Before we were looked at our results we got to choose which personality time we thought we were based on our discussion so far. I originally thought that I was a ESTJ or Extraversion, Sensing, Thinking, Judging. This person is normally logical, directive, organized and works well with others. After  we look at our results I was surprised to find that I came up as ENFJ or Extraversion, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging. This person is described as warm, supportive, friendly, and work well with others. After seeing the results I was convince that although I did have trait of both I was still an ESTJ. However after we did many of the excursive and I specifically placed myself in the groups I was put in by the test I found that I indeed worked well with these groups. There may be times that I am some of every other type of trait but my natural function is an ENFJ. As I move forward in my journey as a leader I think doing this test will help me look at ways to work with people who fall in to the same categories as me as well as those who don't.

  1. Thanks for posting, Elianah. Remember that the types are not boxes; you may actually live in several of them. I think you can recognize elements of your type more clearly now, which was a point of the activity.
    This post looked to be rushed a bit. A lot of spelling and choppy writing style. These are not long posts, so write them well and thoughtfully -- maybe in word so you can spell check -- then post them!
