Over all the types the ENTJ (Effectiveness/Perspectives in the Personality Hacker system) is the most driven to leadership and strategic management. Even though other types make effective managers or strategists, it’s in this type that we see the impulse make itself most manifest. When at their best, the management of people and resources comes second nature to them. They naturally organize and plan large projects. Their distinct style is that of the strong CEO or army general. This type tends to see themselves as utilitarian, pragmatic, and prudent. They hold themselves and others to high standards, and will not tolerate repeated mistakes.
INTP’s lead with the cognitive function Accuracy (Introverted Thinking). Accuracy is highly skilled at understanding systems and filleting out data points other people conflate. It’s like surgery for data points. It gets good at spotting inconsistencies and incongruities.
It also tends to get myopic. In order to take in a bigger picture and see how these data points fit into a larger narrative, Exploration – the process that engages with the environment to spot new patterns and understand how disparate things relate to each other – is the key to not missing important details that may otherwise be outside your frame of reference and experience.
