Personality & Leadership (Lewis, Project Leadership)
The Jung Dimensions (basis of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator – MBTI): www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
Extroversion-Introversion
Sensing-Intuition
Thinking-Feeling
Judging-Perceiving
Extroversion (E)-Introversion (I): How we are energized (outside world – objects, people, animals; or inside world – concepts, thoughts, ideas)
Sensing (S)-Intuition (N): How we prefer to take in information (facts or patterns and meanings in facts)
Thinking (T)-Feeling (F): How we prefer to make decisions (logical analysis or concern for the impact of others)
Judging (J)-Perceiving (P): How we prefer to deal with the outside world (planned and orderly or flexible and spontaneous)

Personality & Leadership (Lewis, Project Leadership)
MBTI Considerations:
“It is not how well we think, but how well we act in a given role. If our behavior is adaptive to circumstances, so that we act effectively in such circumstances, then we can be said to be intelligent in those circumstances.”
Idealists: Intuitive-Feeling (NF) leaders will be best at diplomacy. They are drawn to the humanities. They communicate ideas using words and are concerned about the feelings of others.
Rationals: Intuitive-Thinking (NT) will excel at strategy. They are drawn to the sciences.
Guardians: Sensing-Judging (SJ) will be strong at logistics and are natural organizers (make up 80% of corporate populations).
Artisans: Sensing-Perceiving (SP) are driven to master techniques. They enjoy the arts, speech-making, and making deals.
However, you seldom find pure types!
