Myers Briggs in the Workplace

In the workplace, there are many different types of leadership personalities that are exhibited. One of my supervisors seems to be more of a feeler and more sensitive to other's feelings and ensuring that all of the employees are happy and there is a harmonious environment. He also seems to be more of an extravert as he is more social than some of the other employees. Also, because he is extremely task-oriented he seems to have more of a judging character as opposed to having a tendency to perceive. This balances out nicely with the other supervisor as she seems to have the opposite qualities. She definitely tends to be more of an introvert and mostly keeps to herself unless she has meetings and such. However this could also be because she is extremely busy and has a lot of events in which only she is taking part in, such as speeches on current events. She also seems to be more of a thinker as she is able to objectively analyse situations and their causes and effects. However, like our other supervisor, she also seems to have more of a judging personality because she is very task-oriented and has to be organised in order to be successful in her career.

Because of my Myers Briggs personality, I work really well in this environment. Its nice that the two supervisors have different leadership qualities because they tend to balance each other out. This way, all employees will be able to relate to at least one of them in their leadership style. The supervisor that I work more closely with I tend to be able to relate to more because I think our leadership styles are so similar. However, everyone in the office is so friendly and welcoming, I feel like it would be easy to take direction from anyone in the office.
