prior – future state description

Extraverted Types Like variety and action Are often good at greeting people Are sometimes impatient with long slow jobs Are interested in how others do their jobs Often enjoy talking on the phone Often act quickly, sometimes without thinking Like to have people around in the working environment May prefer to communicate by talking rather than writing Like to learn a new task by talking it through with someone
Introverted Types Like quiet for concentration Have trouble remembering names and faces Can work on one project for a long time without interruption Are interested in the idea behind the job Dislike phone interruptions Think before they act, sometimes without acting Work alone contentedly May prefer communications to be in writing May prefer to learn by reading rather than talking or experiencing
Effects of Preferences in Work Situations Sensing types – Intuitive types
Sensing Types Are aware of the uniqueness of each event Focus on what works now Like an established way of doing things Enjoy applying what they have already learned Work steadily, with a realistic idea of how long it will take Usually reach a conclusion step by step Are not often inspired, and may not trust the inspiration when they are Are careful about the facts May be good at precise work Can oversimplify a task Accept current reality as a given to work with
Intuitive Types Are aware of new challenges and possibilities Focus on how things could be improved Dislike doing the same thing repeatedly Enjoy learning new skills Work in bursts of energy powered by enthusiasm with slack periods in between May leap to a conclusion quickly Follow their inspirations hunches May get their facts a bit wrong Dislike taking time for precision Can over complicate a task Ask why things are as the are
Effects of Preferences in Work Situations Thinking types – Feeling types

Perceiving Types Do not mind leaving things open for last-minute changes Adapt well to changing situations May have trouble making decisions, feeling they never have enough information May start too many projects and have difficulty finishing them May postpone unplesant jobs Want to know all about a new job Get a lot accomplished at the last minute under pressure of a deadline Use lists as reminders of all the things they have to do someday
