Description of ESFPs

ESFPs motto is 'Let’s Have Fun.'

ESFPs are the “Performers” and the “Entertainers” of the 16 types.

For ESFP's the world is a stage.

ESFPs are warm, caring and friendly.

ESFPs thrive on excitement, variety and new experiences.

ESFPs do not do well with routine repetitive tasks.

ESFPs are very uncomfortable being alone for any length of time.

ESFPs like to be the center of attention.

ESFPs are able to establish report with their audience very quickly.

ESFP's are extraverted and outgoing.

They are down to earth, grounded, realistic and practical.

ESFPs prefer careers where:
  • Management provides specific and realistic directions
  • The work itself is personally meaningful and has value
  • Decisions and actions at work are in sync with your personal values
  • The work offers the opportunity to rapidly change direction and to respond to problems as they arise
