INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK2
The MBTI®
Personality Assessment
This Step II™
report is an in-depth, personalized description of your personality preferences, derived from
your answers to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator®
(Form Q) instrument. It includes your Step I™
results
(your four-letter type), along with your Step II results, which show some of the unique ways that you
express your Step I type.
The MBTI®
instrument was developed by Isabel Myers and Katharine Briggs as an application of Carl
Jung’s theory of psychological types. This theory suggests that we have opposite ways of gaining energy
(Extraversion or Introversion), gathering or becoming aware of information (Sensing or Intuition), deciding
or coming to a conclusion about that information (Thinking or Feeling), and dealing with the world
around us (Judging or Perceiving).
If you prefer Extraversion, you focus
on the outside world to get energy through
interacting with people and/or doing things.
If you prefer Sensing, you notice and trust
facts, details, and present realities.
If you prefer Thinking, you make
decisions using logical, objective analysis.
If you prefer Judging, you tend to be
organized and orderly and to make decisions
quickly.
If you prefer Introversion, you focus on the
inner world and get energy through reflecting on
information, ideas, and/or concepts.
If you prefer Intuition, you attend to and trust
interrelationships, theories, and future possibilities.
If you prefer Feeling, you make decisions to
create harmony by applying person-centered values.
If you prefer Perceiving, you tend to be
flexible and adaptable and to keep your options
open as long as possible.
It is assumed that you use each of these eight parts of your personality but prefer one in each area, just
as you have a natural preference for using one hand rather than the other. No preference pole is better or
more desirable than its opposite.
The MBTI instrument is not a measure of your skills or abilities in any area. Rather it is a way to help you
become aware of your particular style and to better understand and appreciate the helpful ways that
people differ from one another.

Your type came out to be
ENFJ
(Extraversion, Intuition, Feeling, Judging)
ENFJs are typically friendly, diplomatic, compassionate, and empathetic and place a high value on
harmony between individuals. They are loyal to people and to their ideals. They are conscientious,
persevering, and orderly in getting things done in a timely and caring manner.
ENFJs draw out what is best in other people. Even when there is conflict, they believe they can find
common ground and harmony. They are sociable and enjoy talking things out with others.
They like working with people’s potential and helping others grow and develop by focusing on visions,
insights, and new ideas. Sometimes others may not be as interested in developing themselves as ENFJs
are in helping them do so.
Although ENFJs like having some routine and reliable approaches to help them get things done, they
prefer to focus on the big picture rather than details. They attend to specifics when needed and value
consistency in themselves and others.
ENFJs are likely to be most satisfied in a work environment where they can help people achieve their
potential. People can count on them to follow through in a concerned and organized manner and to
encourage others’ personal growth and development.
DOES THIS TYPE FIT YOU?
Note the parts of the previous description that fit you and any that don’t. Your Step II results on the next
pages may help to clarify any areas that do not describe you well. If the Step I type you reported does not
fit, your Step II results may help suggest a different type that is more accurate for you.

Your personality is complex and dynamic. The Step II tool describes some of that complexity by showing your
results on five different parts or facets of each of the MBTI instrument’s four pairs of opposite preferences
shown below.

In reviewing your results, keep in mind that
Each facet has two opposite poles. You are more likely to favor the pole that is on the same side as
your overall preference (an in-preference result)—for example, the Initiating pole if you prefer
Extraversion, or the Receiving pole if you prefer Introversion.
For any particular facet, you might favor a pole that is opposite to your overall preference (an out-of-
preference result) or show no clear preference for either pole (a midzone result).
Knowing your preferences on these twenty facets can help you better understand your unique way of
experiencing and expressing your type.
HOW TO READ YOUR STEP II™
RESULTS
The next few pages give you information for each set of facets. Each page has a graph of your results on
the facets. The graph gives
Brief definitions of the MBTI Step I preferences shown.
The names of the five facet poles associated with each MBTI preference along with three descriptive
words or phrases for each facet pole.
A bar showing the pole you prefer or the midzone. The length of that bar shows how clearly you
reported your preference for that pole. By looking at the graph, you can see whether your result on a
facet is in-preference (scores of 2–5 on the same side as your preference), out-of-preference (scores of
2–5 on the side opposite your preference), or in the midzone (scores of 0 or 1).
Below the graph are statements that describe the characteristics of each in-preference, out-of-preference,
or midzone result. If a set of statements does not seem to fit, perhaps you would be better described by
the opposite pole or by the midzone. To understand an opposite facet pole, look at the three words or
phrases that describe it on the graph.

Results to Making Decisions
Effective decisions require gathering information from a variety of perspectives and applying sound
methods of evaluating that information. The Step II facets give us specific ways to enhance our decision
making, especially those facets related to Sensing, Intuition, Thinking, and Feeling. Below are general
questions associated with those facets. The facet poles you prefer are in bold italics. If you are in the
midzone, neither pole is italicized.
SENSING INTUITION
THINKING FEELING
Concrete: What do we know? How do we know it?
Realistic: What are the real costs?
Practical: Will it work?
Experiential: Can you show me how it works?

Empathetic: What do we like and dislike?
Compassionate: What impact will this have on people?
Accommodating: How can we make everyone happy?

Tender: What about the people who will be hurt?
Six different ways of evaluating information, called decision-making styles, have been identified based on
two facets of the Thinking–Feeling dichotomy: Logical–Empathetic and Reasonable–Compassionate.
Trust the Feeling preference and readily make decisions based on your system of values.
May recognize logical cause-and-effect factors but see them as secondary.

considering the less preferred parts of your
personality.
In group problem-solving, actively seek out people
with different views. Ask for their concerns and
perspectives.
Do a final check to make sure that all the

Results to Managing Conflict
Conflicts are inevitable when working with others. People of distinct personality types may differ in
what they define as conflict, how they react to it, and how they reach resolution. Although sometimes
unpleasant, conflicts often lead to improved work situations and enhanced relationships.
Part of conflict management for every type includes
Taking care of getting the work done while maintaining your relationships with the people involved.
Recognizing that all perspectives have something to add, but any perspective used in its extreme and
to the exclusion of its opposite will ultimately impede conflict resolution.
Some aspects of conflict management may be unique to your results on six Step II facets. The table below
explains how your results on these facets may affect your efforts to manage conflict.

Early Starting Believe conflicts can be avoided
by starting work on projects
early.
Make allowances for people for whom
starting early is not comfortable or effective.
In addition to your facet results, your decision-making style (as explained earlier) affects how you
manage conflict. Your decision-making style is Empathetic and Compassionate. You are likely to focus
on taking person-centered values into account, believing that others who do not are insensitive. To
make your efforts to manage conflict more effective, be aware of two possible extreme responses—
giving in before others know your views or insisting that your way be followed.

How the Parts of Your Personality Work Together
The essence of type involves the way information is gathered (Sensing and Intuition) and how decisions
are made (Thinking and Feeling). Each type has favorite ways of doing those two things. The two middle
letters of your four-letter type (S or N and T or F) show your favorite processes. Their opposites, whose
letters don’t appear in your four-letter type, are third and fourth in importance for your type.
Remember—you use all parts of your personality at least some of the time.
Here’s the way it works for ENFJs:
Feeling best
Sensing third
S
Intuition next
N
Thinking least
T ENFJs like
F
USING YOUR FAVORITE PROCESSES
Extraverts like to use their favorite process mostly in the outer world of people and things. For balance,
they use their second favorite in their inner world of ideas and impressions. Introverts tend to use their
favorite process mostly in their inner world and to balance this with the use of their second favorite
process in the outer world.
Thus ENFJs use
Feeling mainly externally to communicate what is important to themselves and others.
Intuition mainly internally to develop a unifying vision of what really matters.
USING YOUR LESS-FAVORED PROCESSES
When you frequently use the less-preferred parts of your personality, Sensing and Thinking, remember
that you are working outside of your natural comfort zone. You may feel awkward, tired, or frustrated
at these times. As an ENFJ, you may become excessively focused on harmony at first, and then express
strong criticism of others as well as doubting your own competence.
To bring back some balance, try the following:
Take more breaks in your activities when you are using these less familiar parts of your personality—
Sensing and Thinking.
Make an effort to find time to do something enjoyable that involves using your favorite ways—
Feeling and Intuition.
MBTI®
STEP II™
INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK14
USING YOUR TYPE EFFECTIVELY
ENFJs’ preference for Feeling and Intuition makes them mostly interested in
Creating and maintaining harmony in their own and other people’s lives.
Exploring ideas and possibilities.
They typically devote little energy to the less-preferred parts of their personality, Thinking and Sensing.
These parts may remain inexperienced and be less available for use in situations where they might be
helpful.
As an ENFJ,
If you rely too much on your Feeling, you may ignore the flaws, the pros and cons, and the logical
implications of your decisions.
If you pay attention exclusively to your Intuition, you are likely to miss the relevant facts and details and
what past experience might suggest.
Your personality type is likely to develop in a natural way over your life. As people get older, many
become interested in using the less familiar parts of their personality. When they are in midlife or older,
ENFJs often find themselves devoting more time to things that were not very appealing when they were
younger. For example, they report greater pleasure in tasks that require logical analysis and attention to
facts and details.
HOW THE FACETS CAN HELP YOU BE MORE EFFECTIVE
Sometimes a particular situation calls for using a less-preferred part of your personality. Your facet results
can make it easier for you to temporarily adopt a less-natural approach. Begin by identifying which facets
are relevant and which poles are more appropriate to use.
If you are out-of-preference on one or more of the relevant facets, make sure to focus on using
approaches and behaviors related to those out-of-preference facets.
If you are in the midzone, decide which pole is more appropriate for the situation at hand and make
sure you use approaches and behaviors related to that pole.
If you are in-preference, ask someone at the opposite facet pole for help in using that approach
or read a description of that pole to get clues for modifying your behavior. Once you have a good
approach, resist shifting back into your comfort zone.
Here are two examples of how to apply these suggestions.
If you are in a situation where your natural information-gathering style (Intuition) may not
be appropriate, try to modify your Abstract approach (an in-preference result) by considering
important facts and details you may have missed (Concrete).
If you are in a situation where you might need to adapt your way of getting things done (Judging), try
using your midzone approach on Scheduled–Spontaneous by asking yourself if this situation calls for
maintaining a routine (Scheduled) or whether staying open to the unexpected (Spontaneous) might
lead to better results.

STEP II™
INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK15
Integrating Step I™
and Step II™
Information
When you combine your Step I reported type and your Step II out-of-preference facets, the result is your
individualized type description:
Intimate, Casual
ENFJ
If, after reading all the information in this report, you don’t think you have been accurately described,
perhaps a different four-letter type or some variation on the facets will fit you better. To help you figure
out your best-fit type,
Focus on any type letters you thought were incorrect or any type dichotomy on which you had some
out-of-preference or midzone facet results.
Read the type description for the type you would be if the letter or letters you question were the
opposite preference.
Consult your MBTI interpreter for suggestions.
Observe yourself and ask others how they see you.
Using Type to Gain Understanding
Knowledge of type can enrich your life in several ways. It can help you
Better understand yourself. Knowing your own type helps you understand the assets and liabilities of
your typical reactions.
Understand others. Knowing about type helps you recognize that other people may be different. It
can enable you to see those differences as useful and broadening, rather than annoying and restricting.
Gain perspective. Seeing yourself and others in the context of type can help you appreciate the
legitimacy of other points of view. You can then avoid getting stuck in believing your way is the
only way. No perspective is always right or always wrong.
Reading about type and observing yourself and others from the standpoint of type will enrich your
understanding of personality differences and encourage constructive uses of those differences.

POLARITY INDEX:
The polarity index, which ranges from 0 to 100, shows the consistency of a respondent’s facet scores within a profile. Most adults
score between 50 and 65, although higher indexes are common. An index that is below 45 means that the respondent has many
scores in or near the midzone. This may be due to mature situational use of the facet, answering the questions randomly, lack of
self-knowledge, or ambivalence about use of a facet. Some such profiles may be invalid.
Number of Omitted Responses:

Kummerow, Ph.D. Report prepared for RICHARD SINK July 23, 2015
  • 2. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK2 The MBTI® Personality Assessment This Step II™ report is an in-depth, personalized description of your personality preferences, derived from your answers to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (Form Q) instrument. It includes your Step I™ results (your four-letter type), along with your Step II results, which show some of the unique ways that you express your Step I type. The MBTI® instrument was developed by Isabel Myers and Katharine Briggs as an application of Carl Jung’s theory of psychological types. This theory suggests that we have opposite ways of gaining energy (Extraversion or Introversion), gathering or becoming aware of information (Sensing or Intuition), deciding or coming to a conclusion about that information (Thinking or Feeling), and dealing with the world around us (Judging or Perceiving). If you prefer Extraversion, you focus on the outside world to get energy through interacting with people and/or doing things. If you prefer Sensing, you notice and trust facts, details, and present realities. If you prefer Thinking, you make decisions using logical, objective analysis. If you prefer Judging, you tend to be organized and orderly and to make decisions quickly. If you prefer Introversion, you focus on the inner world and get energy through reflecting on information, ideas, and/or concepts. If you prefer Intuition, you attend to and trust interrelationships, theories, and future possibilities. If you prefer Feeling, you make decisions to create harmony by applying person-centered values. If you prefer Perceiving, you tend to be flexible and adaptable and to keep your options open as long as possible. It is assumed that you use each of these eight parts of your personality but prefer one in each area, just as you have a natural preference for using one hand rather than the other. No preference pole is better or more desirable than its opposite. The MBTI instrument is not a measure of your skills or abilities in any area. Rather it is a way to help you become aware of your particular style and to better understand and appreciate the helpful ways that people differ from one another. YOUR REPORT CONTAINS Your Step I™ Results Your Step II™ Facet Results Applying Step II™ Results to Communicating Applying Step II™ Results to Making Decisions Applying Step II™ Results to Managing Change Applying Step II™ Results to Managing Conflict How the Parts of Your Personality Work Together Integrating Step I™ and Step II™ Information Using Type to Gain Understanding Overview of Your Results
  • 3. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK3 Your Step I™ Results The graph below and the paragraphs that follow it provide information about the personality type you reported. Each of the four preferences you indicated is shown by a bar on that side. The longer the bar, the more clearly you have expressed that preference. (I) INTROVERSION (N) INTUITION (F) FEELING (P) PERCEIVING EXTRAVERSION (E) SENSING (S) THINKING (T) JUDGING (J) CLARITY OF PREFERENCES Very Clear Clear Moderate Slight Moderate Clear 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 Very Clear Your type came out to be ENFJ (Extraversion, Intuition, Feeling, Judging) ENFJs are typically friendly, diplomatic, compassionate, and empathetic and place a high value on harmony between individuals. They are loyal to people and to their ideals. They are conscientious, persevering, and orderly in getting things done in a timely and caring manner. ENFJs draw out what is best in other people. Even when there is conflict, they believe they can find common ground and harmony. They are sociable and enjoy talking things out with others. They like working with people’s potential and helping others grow and develop by focusing on visions, insights, and new ideas. Sometimes others may not be as interested in developing themselves as ENFJs are in helping them do so. Although ENFJs like having some routine and reliable approaches to help them get things done, they prefer to focus on the big picture rather than details. They attend to specifics when needed and value consistency in themselves and others. ENFJs are likely to be most satisfied in a work environment where they can help people achieve their potential. People can count on them to follow through in a concerned and organized manner and to encourage others’ personal growth and development. DOES THIS TYPE FIT YOU? Note the parts of the previous description that fit you and any that don’t. Your Step II results on the next pages may help to clarify any areas that do not describe you well. If the Step I type you reported does not fit, your Step II results may help suggest a different type that is more accurate for you.
  • 4. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK4 Your Step II™ Facet Results Your personality is complex and dynamic. The Step II tool describes some of that complexity by showing your results on five different parts or facets of each of the MBTI instrument’s four pairs of opposite preferences shown below. EXTRAVERSION (E) Initiating Expressive Gregarious Active Enthusiastic (I) INTROVERSION Receiving Contained Intimate Reflective Quiet THINKING (T) Logical Reasonable Questioning Critical Tough (F) FEELING Empathetic Compassionate Accommodating Accepting Tender SENSING (S) Concrete Realistic Practical Experiential Traditional (N) INTUITION Abstract Imaginative Conceptual Theoretical Original JUDGING (J) Systematic Planful Early Starting Scheduled Methodical (P) PERCEIVING Casual Open-Ended Pressure-Prompted Spontaneous Emergent In reviewing your results, keep in mind that Each facet has two opposite poles. You are more likely to favor the pole that is on the same side as your overall preference (an in-preference result)—for example, the Initiating pole if you prefer Extraversion, or the Receiving pole if you prefer Introversion. For any particular facet, you might favor a pole that is opposite to your overall preference (an out-of- preference result) or show no clear preference for either pole (a midzone result). Knowing your preferences on these twenty facets can help you better understand your unique way of experiencing and expressing your type. HOW TO READ YOUR STEP II™ RESULTS The next few pages give you information for each set of facets. Each page has a graph of your results on the facets. The graph gives Brief definitions of the MBTI Step I preferences shown. The names of the five facet poles associated with each MBTI preference along with three descriptive words or phrases for each facet pole. A bar showing the pole you prefer or the midzone. The length of that bar shows how clearly you reported your preference for that pole. By looking at the graph, you can see whether your result on a facet is in-preference (scores of 2–5 on the same side as your preference), out-of-preference (scores of 2–5 on the side opposite your preference), or in the midzone (scores of 0 or 1). Below the graph are statements that describe the characteristics of each in-preference, out-of-preference, or midzone result. If a set of statements does not seem to fit, perhaps you would be better described by the opposite pole or by the midzone. To understand an opposite facet pole, look at the three words or phrases that describe it on the graph.

  • 9. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK9 Applying Step II™ Results to Communicating All aspects of your type influence how you communicate, especially as part of a team. Nine of the facets are particularly relevant to communication. Your preferences for these nine facets along with tips for better communication appear below. In addition to the tips in the table, keep in mind that communication for every type includes Telling others what kind of information you need. Asking others what they need. Monitoring your impatience when other styles dominate. Realizing that others likely are not trying to annoy you when they use their own communication styles. Your Facet Result Communication Style Enhancing Communication Initiating Start interactions by helping people get to know one another. Make sure that people actually need and want these introductions. Expressive Say whatever is on your mind to anyone who will listen. Recognize when it’s important not to say what’s on your mind and then don’t say it. Active Like to communicate and inter- act with others face-to-face. Recognize when face-to-face communica- tion may be intrusive or unnecessary. Enthusiastic Readily show enthusiasm for the subject at hand. Be careful not to overwhelm and override others; make sure you ask for input. Abstract Talk about what you can infer from the here-and-now data. Be open to the important details that you may be ignoring. Questioning– Accommodating Midzone Ask some questions comfortably as long as this does not impede group consensus. Choose carefully when you need to agree or when you need to ask questions. Accepting Take a naturally inclusive stance toward a broad range of views. Be aware that others may be frustrated by your refusal to favor one view over the others. Tough–Tender Midzone Take a tough or a tender stance depending on the circumstances. Be aware that under stress, you are likely to be tough. Methodical Identify the steps and their order before starting a task. Be tolerant of others who plunge in without identifying steps.
  • 10. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK10 Applying Step II™ Results to Making Decisions Effective decisions require gathering information from a variety of perspectives and applying sound methods of evaluating that information. The Step II facets give us specific ways to enhance our decision making, especially those facets related to Sensing, Intuition, Thinking, and Feeling. Below are general questions associated with those facets. The facet poles you prefer are in bold italics. If you are in the midzone, neither pole is italicized. SENSING INTUITION THINKING FEELING Concrete: What do we know? How do we know it? Realistic: What are the real costs? Practical: Will it work? Experiential: Can you show me how it works? Traditional: Does anything really need changing? Abstract: What else could this mean? Imaginative: What else can we come up with? Conceptual: What other interesting ideas are there? Theoretical: How is it all interconnected? Original: What is a new way to do this? Logical: What are the pros and cons? Reasonable: What are the logical consequences? Questioning: But what about . . . ? Critical: What is wrong with this? Tough: Why aren’t we following through now? Empathetic: What do we like and dislike? Compassionate: What impact will this have on people? Accommodating: How can we make everyone happy? Accepting: What is beneficial in this? Tender: What about the people who will be hurt? Six different ways of evaluating information, called decision-making styles, have been identified based on two facets of the Thinking–Feeling dichotomy: Logical–Empathetic and Reasonable–Compassionate. Trust the Feeling preference and readily make decisions based on your system of values. May recognize logical cause-and-effect factors but see them as secondary. Seek to create and maintain harmony through your decisions. Are seen as sensitive and tactful. Are sometimes seen as too kind and considerate. Your style is Empathetic and Compassionate. This style means that you likely In individual problem-solving, start by asking all the questions in the boxes above. Pay careful attention to the answers. The questions that are opposite to the ones in bold italics may be key since they represent perspectives you aren’t likely to consider. Try to balance your decision-making style by considering the less preferred parts of your personality. In group problem-solving, actively seek out people with different views. Ask for their concerns and perspectives. Do a final check to make sure that all the questions above have been asked and that different decision-making styles are included. If you are missing a perspective, make extra efforts to consider what it might add. TIPS
  • 11. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK11 Applying Step II™ Results to Managing Change Change seems to be inevitable and affects people in different ways. To help you deal with change, Be clear about what is changing and what is remaining the same. Identify what you need to know to understand the change and then seek out that information. To help others deal with change, Encourage open discussion about the change; be aware that this is easier for some than others. Make sure that both logical reasons and personal or social values have been considered. Your personality type also influences your style of managing change, particularly your results on the nine facets below. Review the facets and tips for enhancing your response to change. Your Facet Result Change-Management Style Enhancing Change Management Expressive Freely share your feelings about the change with others. Limit your expressiveness to those who appreciate your style; give others time to think things through. Intimate Discuss the changes and their impact on you only with those closest to you. Consider sharing feelings with selected people outside your intimate circle. Abstract May make unwarranted inferences about the meaning of the change. Check out your inferences with some facts and data. Realistic–Imaginative Midzone Are concerned about both the cost effectiveness and the novel possibilities. Validate both points of view and decide which makes more sense in this circumstance. Theoretical Put the change into a theoretical system. Recognize that people’s experiences may not be explained adequately by your theory. Traditional–Original Midzone Want to keep the best of the established methods but are willing to change others. Let others know the reasons for your views to help them understand your perspective. Tough–Tender Midzone Start with a tender stance but may become tough. Stay open to the people issues as long as possible. Planful Plan as far in advance as possible for the changes. Allow for the unexpected in your long-range plan—it will happen! Methodical Detail the many steps necessary to implement the changes. Know that circumstances may require that carefully developed steps be changed in the moment.
  • 12. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK12 Applying Step II™ Results to Managing Conflict Conflicts are inevitable when working with others. People of distinct personality types may differ in what they define as conflict, how they react to it, and how they reach resolution. Although sometimes unpleasant, conflicts often lead to improved work situations and enhanced relationships. Part of conflict management for every type includes Taking care of getting the work done while maintaining your relationships with the people involved. Recognizing that all perspectives have something to add, but any perspective used in its extreme and to the exclusion of its opposite will ultimately impede conflict resolution. Some aspects of conflict management may be unique to your results on six Step II facets. The table below explains how your results on these facets may affect your efforts to manage conflict. Your Facet Result Conflict-Management Style Enhancing Conflict Management Expressive Discuss the conflict and your emotional reactions to it immediately. Be aware that even though others may not speak up immediately, they may feel strongly about the issue. Intimate Rely on yourself or a few trusted others in resolving the conflict. Widen your circle to include others affected; they may have something valuable to contribute. Questioning– Accommodating Midzone Ask some questions for clarification before reaching agreement. Be cautious that your style of questioning does not appear confrontational. Accepting Look for points of agreement in others’ arguments and ideas. Recognize that some things are really worthy of criticism, so don’t insist on agreement. Tough–Tender Midzone Wait until the group has tried to reach consensus; if it doesn’t, push for your own way. Monitor the timing of when you give up on consensus and push to action. Early Starting Believe conflicts can be avoided by starting work on projects early. Make allowances for people for whom starting early is not comfortable or effective. In addition to your facet results, your decision-making style (as explained earlier) affects how you manage conflict. Your decision-making style is Empathetic and Compassionate. You are likely to focus on taking person-centered values into account, believing that others who do not are insensitive. To make your efforts to manage conflict more effective, be aware of two possible extreme responses— giving in before others know your views or insisting that your way be followed.
  • 13. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK13 How the Parts of Your Personality Work Together The essence of type involves the way information is gathered (Sensing and Intuition) and how decisions are made (Thinking and Feeling). Each type has favorite ways of doing those two things. The two middle letters of your four-letter type (S or N and T or F) show your favorite processes. Their opposites, whose letters don’t appear in your four-letter type, are third and fourth in importance for your type. Remember—you use all parts of your personality at least some of the time. Here’s the way it works for ENFJs: Feeling best Sensing third S Intuition next N Thinking least T ENFJs like F USING YOUR FAVORITE PROCESSES Extraverts like to use their favorite process mostly in the outer world of people and things. For balance, they use their second favorite in their inner world of ideas and impressions. Introverts tend to use their favorite process mostly in their inner world and to balance this with the use of their second favorite process in the outer world. Thus ENFJs use Feeling mainly externally to communicate what is important to themselves and others. Intuition mainly internally to develop a unifying vision of what really matters. USING YOUR LESS-FAVORED PROCESSES When you frequently use the less-preferred parts of your personality, Sensing and Thinking, remember that you are working outside of your natural comfort zone. You may feel awkward, tired, or frustrated at these times. As an ENFJ, you may become excessively focused on harmony at first, and then express strong criticism of others as well as doubting your own competence. To bring back some balance, try the following: Take more breaks in your activities when you are using these less familiar parts of your personality— Sensing and Thinking. Make an effort to find time to do something enjoyable that involves using your favorite ways— Feeling and Intuition.
  • 14. MBTI® STEP II™ INTERPRETIVE REPORT ENFJ—RICHARD SINK14 USING YOUR TYPE EFFECTIVELY ENFJs’ preference for Feeling and Intuition makes them mostly interested in Creating and maintaining harmony in their own and other people’s lives. Exploring ideas and possibilities. They typically devote little energy to the less-preferred parts of their personality, Thinking and Sensing. These parts may remain inexperienced and be less available for use in situations where they might be helpful. As an ENFJ, If you rely too much on your Feeling, you may ignore the flaws, the pros and cons, and the logical implications of your decisions. If you pay attention exclusively to your Intuition, you are likely to miss the relevant facts and details and what past experience might suggest. Your personality type is likely to develop in a natural way over your life. As people get older, many become interested in using the less familiar parts of their personality. When they are in midlife or older, ENFJs often find themselves devoting more time to things that were not very appealing when they were younger. For example, they report greater pleasure in tasks that require logical analysis and attention to facts and details. HOW THE FACETS CAN HELP YOU BE MORE EFFECTIVE Sometimes a particular situation calls for using a less-preferred part of your personality. Your facet results can make it easier for you to temporarily adopt a less-natural approach. Begin by identifying which facets are relevant and which poles are more appropriate to use. If you are out-of-preference on one or more of the relevant facets, make sure to focus on using approaches and behaviors related to those out-of-preference facets. If you are in the midzone, decide which pole is more appropriate for the situation at hand and make sure you use approaches and behaviors related to that pole. If you are in-preference, ask someone at the opposite facet pole for help in using that approach or read a description of that pole to get clues for modifying your behavior. Once you have a good approach, resist shifting back into your comfort zone. Here are two examples of how to apply these suggestions. If you are in a situation where your natural information-gathering style (Intuition) may not be appropriate, try to modify your Abstract approach (an in-preference result) by considering important facts and details you may have missed (Concrete). If you are in a situation where you might need to adapt your way of getting things done (Judging), try using your midzone approach on Scheduled–Spontaneous by asking yourself if this situation calls for maintaining a routine (Scheduled) or whether staying open to the unexpected (Spontaneous) might lead to better results.

Most adults score between 50 and 65, although higher indexes are common. An index that is below 45 means that the respondent has many scores in or near the midzone. This may be due to mature situational use of the facet, answering the questions randomly, lack of self-knowledge, or ambivalence about use of a facet. Some such profiles may be invalid.
