- ENTJs have a natural tendency to assume control of groups. This may be
- expressed with the charm and finesse of a world leader or, at the other
- extreme, with the insensitivity of a cult leader. The ENTJ requires little
- encouragement to make a plan. One ENTJ put it this way... "I make these
- little plans that really don't have any importance to anyone else, and then
- feel compelled to carry them out." Not all ENTJs may be as driven,
- nevertheless the bent to plan creatively is common to NJ types.
-
- ENTJs are often "larger than life" in describing their projects or proposals.
- A friend once told me that he was agog at the description one ENTJ was
- expounding of a particular gathering. Then my friend realized that he
- himself had been at that gathering and had found it rather ordinary!
-
- TRADEMARK: -- "I'm really sorry you have to die." (I realize this is an
- overstatement. However, most F's, and other gentle souls, usually chuckle
- knowingly when I suggest this description.)
-
- ENTJs are decisive, often on behalf of other people. Few of other types can
- equal their ability to remain resolute in conflict, sending the valiant (and
- often 'leading the charge') 'into the mouth of hell.' When challenged, the
- ENTJ may by reflex become argumentative. Alternatively (s)he may fix one
- with an icy gaze that serves notice: the ENTJ is not one to be trifled with.
