Style Profile for ENTJ
(The
Director)
| ENTJs
learn best by reading, exchanging and analyzing ideas.
They have a thirst
for knowledge and enjoy utilizing it in the world around them, since for them
knowledge is a route towards greater achievement. They prefer to learn in an
intellectually stimulating atmosphere in which debate and problem solving are
encouraged, and feel more comfortable when the learning is structured and has
clear targets than when it is open-ended or involves play and experimentation.
They are good at
conceptualising and abstract reasoning, though they may be less interested in
acquiring facts and figures. They tend not to accept a teacher’s authority
without question, and will readily point out any inconsistencies in an argument
or method.

As
learners, ENTJs:
- are
stimulated by ideas and quick to grasp possibilities
- enjoy challenges,
problem-solving and achieving goals
- need to know why
they are learning something
- are energised by
competition
- enjoy teamwork and
group activities
- are motivated by
achievement and the quest for excellence
- may overlook facts
and details
- may ignore their
own feelings about what they are learning
|
ENTJs
learn best when:
- given positions of
leadership or visibility, for example giving presentations, organising team
members etc.
- there is a focused
and structured learning environment
- given the
opportunity to explore or question assumptions, presuppositions and
methodologies
- presented with
logical, coherent arguments
- being set
challenges and allowed to achieve them in their own way
- their teacher is
respected for his/her intellectual or leadership abilities
- when set attainment
targets
- encouraged to link
what they are learning to their personal goals and ambitions
- when initiative,
leadership and thoroughness are rewarded
|
ENTJs
learn least well and may be demotivated when:
- bonding with a team
or group, or identifying with an institution, organisation or company is valued
over independent thinking
- the learning is
essentially passive, i.e. reading, observing others, listening to how something
'should' be done, taking notes
- required to work
alone, for example reading, writing or reflecting
- the focus is on
detail, completing and finishing tasks and perfecting techniques
- creativity,
interpersonal relationships or personal growth is rewarded above decisiveness,
leadership and determination
- being taught by
'rote' (i.e. repetition), or when given specific instructions or rigid
guidelines
