ESTJs at work
• ESTJs like to organize facts, situations, and operations related to a project,
and they will make a systematic effort to reach their objectives on schedule.
Getting things done is their strong suit.
• They tend to focus on the job, not on the people behind the job.
• They prefer jobs in which results are immediate, visible, and tangible.
• ESTJs can see the steps needed to accomplish a task, anticipate potential
problems, assign responsibilities, and organize resources.
• When they see that something is not working, they will plan and act
to correct the situation. Otherwise, they prefer proven procedures
and systems.
• They are focused on tasks, action, and the bottom line.
• They have a natural bent for business, industry, production, and
construction. They are excellent administrators because they understand
systems and logistics. They like to set goals, make decisions, and give the
necessary orders.
• They are not happy in work environments with confusion, inefficiency, and
halfway measures.
Potential blind spots for ESTJs
• If ESTJs have not developed their Thinking preference, they may not have a
reliable way of evaluating information and thus may end up making overly
harsh decisions.
• If they have not developed their Sensing preference, ESTJs may decide
too quickly before taking in enough information. Then their decisions will
reflect only their previous judgments or biases.
• They may decide so quickly that they don’t stop and listen to the viewpoints
of others, especially those of people who are not in a position to argue.
Then they may make decisions without gathering enough facts or with
insufficient regard for what other people think or feel.
• They may rely so much on their logical approach that they overlook Feeling
values what they and other people care about.
• ESTJs sometimes have trouble expressing appreciation.
