How Others May See Them
Because they naturally devise systems, procedures, and schedules, others rely on ESTJ s to take charge and get things done. Others
may also find them overpowering at times because ESTJ s are so certain about how things should be. Because they are clear and
straightforward in their communication, people seldom have to wonder where they stand.

Dealing with Change
ESTJ s are logical, orderly and decisive. They readily create or support structures, schedules and systems to achieve the tasks required of them and will,
if allowed, do the same for others.
Changing environments stimulate ESTJ s to create a new order and system. They strongly dislike inefficiency and waste, and they will focus on organizing people
and other resources as quickly as possible. They are good at including necessary details and at dealing with practical and realistic problems. ESTJ s are orientated
toward quick action and bottom-line results.
ESTJ s make up 8.7% of the population
