So, I started a new job, and I'm trying to get along better with my boss. I am not the most emotionally/socially aware person, so I figured MBTI typing was the best place to start (you know, to use that rationality I like so much as a T). I was hoping that some people that know the types better could help me out.
I KNOW he's extroverted, and he is very charming and charismatic and witty. But, he can be pretty obtuse to people's feelings (harsh with criticism, not mincing words, not always the most diplomatic with his subordinates). So I am also comfortable saying T. If you're keeping track, we have E_T_
He is also very authoritarian and does not stand for his subordinates challenging his vision/ideas. So although I am relatively comfortable saying ENTJ based on these traits and this description: (ENTJ in the Workplace
| 16Personalities), I am struggling with the P/J trait because he can be very spontaneous and jump from idea to idea, but also he likes meetings to be structured and dislikes when they veer offtrack. Additionally, he looks over every assignment with a fine-tooth comb, which I assume is out of line with ENTJ.
So, if anyone can help me out, it would be much appreciated!
