Conclusion

Few personality types are as practical and caring as ESFJs (Consuls). Known for their social and administrative skills, they are good at creating and maintaining a secure, stable and friendly environment for themselves and their loved ones. Their dedication is invaluable in many areas, including their own personal growth.

Yet ESFJ personalities can be easily tripped up in areas where their kindness and practical approach are more of a liability than an asset. Whether it is finding (or keeping) a partner, learning to relax or improvise, reaching dazzling heights on the career ladder, or managing their workload, ESFJs need to put in a conscious effort to develop their weaker traits and additional skills.
