I've worked (as external staff but for almost a year) for a big american consultancy firm whose culture is notoriously ENTJ,
at their US+NorthEU offices.
there is one character trait that I'm curious about, because I didn't expect that from an ENTJ type.
I expected ENTJs to be always dressed impeccably, somehow "posh", somehow "elitist".
What I found out is that these guys are completely CASUAL, couldnt care less about their "style", let alone "brands".
Especially OUT OF THE JOB, where they didnt have to wear their black suits.
That shocked me. Seeing them in sneakers and shorts was not what I expected.
I expected more an "IVY LEAGUE" style, you know what I mean.
At last is their "family time" habits that struck me a lot.
They couldnt care less to go to a posh reastaurant or an expensive luxury shop.
Nothing worng with that, but I expected the opposite from an ENTJ, since they are so perfectionists at everything they touch (on the job).
It's kind of "I don't give damn about my "social" reputation - so I don't care about my clothes a lot"
Just to make an example, one of the top guys in this organization, ENTJ at DNA, is always showing, under his black suit, a POLAR WATCH, becouse that is the watch he uses when he goes running every morning. He could afford the best Omega or TAG, but he just wears what is "functional"
Are these traits that you recognize in all ENTJs ?
I expected them to be much more elitist also in appearance and personal habits.
