ENFJ Personality 

ENFJ stands for extroverted, intuitive, feeling, and judging, and this personality type is also known as the Protagonist, due to their people-oriented and leadership traits.

These people make some of the best leaders, and they understand people very well and are able to anticipate the needs of others and get things done for them.

The ENFJs orientation is towards the external world, which means they get along well with other people, events, or the environment.

ENFJ is known for their empathy and affection towards others and they are deeply altruistic, the reason being that they are able to reflect the vibes or feelings they receive from those around them, and they might be able to express sorrow or joy, or other emotions, as needed, to the person or group that is in front of them.

The primary function in the ENFJ function stack is the extroverted feeling, which means that they are able to understand the motives and thinking patterns of others better than, say, Fi, or introverted feeling.

Judging, or the primary decision-making process of the ENFJ, comes from the same feeling function, and it is evident in their own mannerisms, expressions, and emotions, which all form part of their behavior are oriented towards the external world in a big way.

The behavior of the ENFJ may often be in the form of intense and noticeable emotional reactions to the external world, and the intense empathy they display for what the other people might be going through is a similar extension of the same function.

This function is also the primary reason through which decisions or judgments are made, and this function affects behavior by making these people more attuned to and more likely to listen to other people’s needs and wants and try to provide it for them.

The ENFJ is also intuitive, which means that their feeling function gets its information to act from many processes and methods that are constantly happening inside their head, and there is a huge network of information that intuition collects for the feeling to base its judgments on.

The intuition function is not easily describable, as it involves many internal mechanisms of the person, and it is also so subjective that it will usually differ slightly from person to person depending on their age, gender, life experiences, and so on.

On the outside it may seem like the ENFJ is just going from person to person and trying to understand what everyone wants, but on the inside, they are analytical and methodical, and even the decisions that look like gut feeling or “Psychic” processes are more complicated than just being the fact that this person just “has a sense of how things are”.

These two functions make up the key reason why an ENFJ almost always knows what to say when you are sad because their empathy helps them respond well to other people’s emotions and it also adds additional facts to the information they have in them already.

The function of the Intuition connects the dots between the information available to them in their mind, as it processes the feelings and emotions of the people in the ENFJs vicinity.

While the Feeling function in the ENFJ is focused outward, the Introverted Intuition function makes up the internal intuitive world of the ENFJ.

The ENFJ also has the necessary repertoire of knowledge, concepts, information, and life experiences, which they use with the help of the same intuition function to draw conclusions and assess what they are being given.

The ENFJ might also greatly appreciate fine cuisine and outward experiences in the real world, as they have an extroverted sensing function, which even though it is tertiary, it can come across in their behavior.

The ENFJ is also extremely gregarious and friendly, and they may make the kind of leaders that are easy to look up to and respect (think: Barack Obama), and they may often be the kind of leader that people want to follow because they like them.

ENFJs are also very idealistic and prone to principles and the right thing to do, and may sometimes obsess over it, and they may often get very sad when their internal vision for ideals does not match the external, and especially if they are not able to do anything about it.

ENFJ Careers

The ENFJ career needs to be something that involves a lot of interaction with people, and something that provides the ENFJ with the ability to help or guide people in some manner.

The best career for ENFJ would be something where they are allowed to be in charge of some people or be able to lead them in some way, and where they can actively try to better the society in some way.

A career that allows for altruism in some way might also make great sense for the ENFJ, as they are deeply committed to making the world a better place, due to their hero-like tendencies and a will to save everything and everyone.

Generally speaking, an ENFJ needs to be in a career where they can organize others to implement positive change and interact with people around them on a personal and intimate basis.

The typical ENFJs are enthusiastic and easily excitable problem-solvers, and their strong intuition about people makes them very good at anything that is based on a people system rather than a mechanical system.

An ENFJ will always strive for cooperation and when provided with a harmonious environment they will make sure that they maintain harmony and support other people, encouraging them to move constantly towards their growth, which means that they can have a great effect on morale and results of the collective workforce.

An ENFJ in any sort of mentor role will take the lives of their wards very seriously, and they will do everything in their power to help the mentees become better at what they do and be the best self they can be.

ENFJs will also tend to gravitate towards leadership roles as they have the natural tendency to organize people and make ample use of all their talents and making them feel like they’re worth something to the company or workplace.

The ENFJ will also have a strong vision and they will greatly enjoy being able to use their creativity to develop innovative initiatives but they will also never lose their humanitarian focus. 

The typical ENFJ employee or worker will always appreciate teamwork, and organizational resources will mean a lot to them, and they will make it clear with their use of said resources to put their ideas into action.

The ENFJ will make a good addition to the workforce but only when the rest of the workforce is constructive and built of forward-thinking people and is led by someone as people-centered as the ENFJ themselves.

Usually, the ENFJ may also be attracted to a more humanitarian mission and an emphasis on constructive action.

Ideally, the ENFJ would also need to be somewhere they can grow and develop as people as well, as they have a tendency to want personal growth and betterment as much as they want to make others feel the same way.

• School or Career Counselor
