enfp “THE CAMPAIGNER” PERSONALITY PROFILE by: Chae Mcdonald

“THE CAMPAIGNER” Enthusiastic, creative and sociable free spirits, who can always find a reason to smile. It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive. Oriah Mountain Dreamer

enfp curious Poor Practical Skills Observant STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES strengths weaknesses curious Imaginative and open-minded, willing to step out of comfort zone for new experiences. Poor Practical Skills ENFPs have great ideas but bad follow-through. Without more hands-on people to help push day-to-day things along, ENFPs’ ideas are likely to remain just that – ideas. Observant  To satisfy their curiosity, ENFPs try to notice everything and never miss a moment. Find it Difficult to Focus  It’s hard for ENFPs to maintain interest as tasks drift towards routine, administrative matters, and away from broader concepts. Energetic and Enthusiastic As they observe, forming new connections and ideas, ENFPs won’t hold their tongues – they’re excited about their findings, and share them with anyone who’ll listen. Overthink Things  ENFPs don’t take things at face value – they look for underlying motives in even the simplest things. Excellent Communicators  ENFPs enjoy both small talk and deep, meaningful conversations, which are just two sides of the same coin for them Get Stressed Easily  A consequence of their popularity is that others often look to them for guidance and help, which takes time, and it’s easy to see why ENFPs sometimes get overwhelmed

enfp Careers to consider >>> HELPING PEOPLE CAREER PATHS Careers to consider >>> HELPING PEOPLE While thinking types may be better at applying logic to systems and machines, people with the ENFP personality type are able to apply that same logic to human interactions and networks, using their exceptional social perception to find out what makes people tick. This lends ENFPs a solid foothold in any human science or service, from psychology, counseling and teaching to politics, diplomacy and detective work. People with the ENFP personality type need to feel like they’re pushing boundaries and exploring ideas, and should focus on interests and careers that encourage that. Many more career options satisfy these needs, and not just the scientific ones – writing, journalism, acting and TV reporting all give ENFPs a chance to explore something new every day and stir the pot a little while they’re at it. It may come to pass though, that the best way forward for ENFP personalities is to establish themselves as entrepreneurs and consultants, blazing their own trails and taking on whatever project is most fascinating. So long as they get to use their people skills, identify and achieve their own goals and inspire their colleagues and followers, ENFPs will be happy. >>> stirring the pot
