Entertainer/Organizer Overview

Entertainer/Organizers (E/O) are Extroverted, Sensing, Feeling types. Extroverted sensation in the dominant position is seen only in opposing combinations. This can create a pulling and tugging of needs in that extroverts prefer action and people contact, and are expansive in nature, while sensors are more concerned with data and facts and prefer to work with these in reserved ways. With this opposition, conflicts may arise when E/Os are paradoxically spontaneous then structured, quiet then outspoken, playful then distant, or orderly then disorganized. E/Os are typically torn between the desire to be expansive, open and to interact with others and the need to withdraw in order to attend to details and facts. Extroverts get their energy from activity and interaction with people, but activity and interaction interfere with close attention to detail. The result is often frustration. E/Os are most effective in environments where there is basic structure, with the potential for flexibility.
