I have found that any "NT" temperament (i.e., INTP, INTJ, ENTJ & INTJ)
tend to prefer "big picture" thinking. I have also found that the "xSxJ"
temperaments have more trouble "seeing" the value of system thinking. It
doesn't mean they can't apply themselves to it but they "prefer" the
listing of steps and short term objectives.
Be very careful to use such tools as only an indicator of temperament....
the hardware. The personality also contains the character which is the
"software" and interacts with temperament to form personality.
See website http://www.keirsey.com/cgi-bin/keirsey/newkts.cgi for an
online Keirsey Temperament Sorter.
