ISTP — The Virtuoso

Takes things apart and puts them back together — machines, systems, problems. Calm in a crisis, because a crisis is just a high-priority task. Spends the minimum of words and exactly enough action.

Cognitive functions

  • Dominant: Ti — introverted thinking
  • Auxiliary: Se — extraverted sensing
  • Tertiary: Ni — introverted intuition
  • Inferior: Fe — extraverted feeling
ExplorersИндиана Джонс, Арья Старк

Practical intelligence, coolness under pressure, independence, and the knack of fixing anything.

Talking about what is going on inside, and planning further than next week.

Under stress
