Billy Bob is more at ease writing than is Raymond
March 15th, 2009 by billybobGiven the “E” in his ENTP he’ll dive into a project as early as it is discovered. Given the b he’ll figured it as he writes (once he’s there). Billy Bob has drawers of writing plans and if one way does not work he’ll change writing plans once, twice, three times in a summer season. ENTPs create a success plan for writing and aren’t concerned if new information calls for change. Course correction matters and data trumps theory. ENTPs love to “gather information for the gathering” sake and can often find creative ways to include new concepts in a new piece replacing an old piece (hot swaps). They spend a lot of time LAST MINUTE polishing their drafts, their tone (Ps) is friendlier than the Js who by comparison are terse and stiff. ENTPs value logic and clarity but stand out aware there may not be time to link their new ideas with the rest of the older set piece. They will sacrifice logical purity rather that pay the expense of losing the crowd. Ironically they believe themselves to be objective and they tend to keep a distance between themselves and the reader. There is a dog food dog sound bite in here somewhere.
Below are some of the advantages ENTPs face when writing:
They quickly adopt new buzzwords and jargon. They “get it”.
They love the new – including the new projects—in a campaign they love to bounce between writing projects.
They work well in teams—get their ideas from others. Love the challenges of big, complex problems.
Excellent at critical analysis; often get directly to the issue at hand. They support their visions with compelling arguments; their passionate defenses of a position often inspire others to act. But they may overstate their discovered principles without supportive evidence. They may have trouble finishing what they begin?
Challenges
May leave tedious tasks to others as they explore "high level" concepts. Lose interest when novelty wears off.
May not be sensitive to the audience’s need for in depth background. May not seem receptive to contrasting views, in fact they relish well-presented contrasts.
