I am an INTJ and ENTJ depending on the day of the test. This makes sense. I’m an only child who is very social as an adult. In fact my career is sort of a hybrid:
As a proposal specialist, I had to master a large skill set of technology and workflows - Office, Adobe, CRM, and print production all on deadlines - but those are able to be controlled, whereas the human element - sales team, SMEs, subconsultants, and other team members - is completely different.
I suppose that’s why in the past 12 months the proposal coordinator / manager / specialist / writer jobs have changed drastically. From 20% remote full time to 60% remote full time jobs. Salary range bumped from $65-80k to $90-115k for same role and years of experience. There is a TON of burnout in this gig, because of the dichotomy of control yet no authority.
Basically though in my experience an INTJ and ENTJ combo is what you need at the top of the leadership pyramid to both do the important work and keep the schedule, and use people skills to inspire or compel contributions. “It’s a &$”@ing tightrope, Spud’
