ENTPs are highly innovative people who pride themselves on being able to find creative, new solutions. They dislike routine and thrive on change, seeing it as a challenge. ENTPs, as the quintessential Think Outside the Box personality type, disdain convention and attempt to carve new paths. Hot careers for ENTPs allow these ingenious people to express their talents for clearly seeing big pictures when it comes to problems and coming up with leading-edge solutions.
INFPs, with their natural tendencies toward creative expression, are a personality type that's well-suited to artistic careers.

One of the questions I get most from my clients is “How should I deal with someone of X personality type?” Clients are anxious to use their new personality type knowledge to work more effectively with colleagues and bosses, as well as relate better to spouses, children, and friends. Whether at work or at home, good relationships are based on good communication, and it helps to start with some basic knowledge of how different types like to communicate. If you just can’t seem to get anywhere with a particular person, it could be because you’re not appealing to their communication style.
