First ESTP?

ESTP
Personality
ESTP are men and women of action. When someone of this personality is present, things begin to
happen. The lights come on, the music plays, and the game begins. And a game it is for the ES TP, the
outstanding entrepreneur, the international diplomat, the conciliator, and the negotiator par excellence.
Approximately 13 percent of the general population are of this extraverted, sensing, thinking, and
perceiving type. And if only one adjective could be used to describe ESTPS – resourceful – would be an
apt choice.
Life is never dull around ESTPs. Their attractive, friendly style has a theatrical flourish which makes
even the most routine, mundane event seem exciting. ESTPs usually known the location of the best
restaurants, and headwaiters are likely to call them by name. ESTPs are socially sophisticated, suave,
and urbane and are master manipulators of the external environment.
ESTPs are uncanny at observing people’s motivations, somehow hypersensitive to minimal nonverbal
cues, which other types might miss. And they are masters at using these observations to “sell” the
“client.” The eye of the ESTP is ever on the eye of the beholder, and all actions are directed toward this
audience. Witty, clever, and fun, ESTPs seem to possess an unusual amount of empathy, when in fact
this is not the case; rather, they are so acutely aware of minimal signals from others that they are usually
several jumps ahead in anticipation of another’s position. And ESTPs can use information gained to the
ends they have in mind – apparently with nerves of steel, engaging in what seems to others to be suicidal
brinksmanship. Other types may find this exhausting, but ESTPs are exhilarated by working close to the
edge of disaster. ESTPs are ruthless pragmatists and often offer the ends as justification for whatever
means they see as necessary – regrettable, perhaps, but necessary. Usually, however, ESTPs do not care
to justify actions, but prefer instead to get on to the next action.
