ENTP (Extrovert, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving)
Inventor
ENTPs begin
building gadgets and mechanisms as young children, and never really stop,
though as adults they will turn their inventiveness to many kinds of
organizations, social as well as mechanical. There aren't many ENTPs, say about
two percent of the population, but they have great impact on our everyday
lives. With their innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, ENTPs are always on the
lookout for a better way, always eyeing new projects, new enterprises, new
processes. Always aiming to "build a better mousetrap."
ENTPs are
keenly pragmatic, and often become expert at devising the most effective means
to accomplish their ends. They are the most reluctant of all the types to do
things in a particular manner just because that's the way they have been done.
As a result, they often bring fresh, new approaches to their work and play.
They are intensely curious and continuously probe for possibilities, especially
when trying to solve complex problems. ENTPs are filled with ideas, but value
ideas only when they make possible actions and objects. Thus they see product
design not as an end in itself, but as a means to an end, as a way of devising
the prototype that works and that can be brought to market. ENTPs are confident
in their pragmatism, counting on their ability to find effective ways and means
when they need them, rather than making a detailed blueprint in advance. A
rough idea is all they need to feel ready to proceed into action.
ENTPs often
have a lively circle of friends and are interested in their ideas and
activities. They are usually easy-going, seldom critical or carping. ENTPs can
be engaging conversationalists, able to express their own complicated ideas and
to follow the ideas of others. When arguing issues, however, they may
deliberately employ debate skills to the serious disadvantage of their
opponents.
ENTPs are
usually non-conformists in the workplace, and can succeed in many areas as long
as the job does not involve too much humdrum routine. They make good leaders on
pilot projects that test their ingenuity. And they are skilled at engineering
human relationships and human systems, quickly grasping the politics of
institutions
and always wanting to understand the people within the system rather than tell
them what to do. No matter what their occupation, however, ENTPs display an
extraordinary talent for rising to the demands of even the most impossible
situations. "It can't be done" is a challenge to an Inventor and
elicits a reaction of "I can do it."
Walt Disney,
Benjamin Franklin, Ray Kurtzweil, Buckminster Fuller, Richard Feynman, Thomas
Edison, Camille Paglia,
and Nicola Tesla are examples of an Inventor Rationals.
