What a Director is like

The Director (ENTJ) is a natural commander who sets a goal, draws the shortest route to it, and moves people and resources along that line with unusual effectiveness. Directors decide quickly, refuse to tolerate inefficiency, and grow more energized as the stakes rise, so teams soon look to them for the call. The cost of that speed is that the feelings and circumstances of those who cannot keep pace fall out of view, and Directors can come across as domineering, impatient, or intimidating even when they are right. They do their best work with real authority over outcomes and a trusted voice reminding them of the human side, which is why a Dreamer (INFP) can be such a valuable partner.
