Personality Type

As a global
leader I am curious to know not just the history of the country but the
personality type of most Dominicans. I think that it’s wise to know because I
want to make sure if my personality type is similar to theirs, if not how can I
adapt. This will also help me have better communication and relationship when
doing business with them.
Well after doing some research I was not surprised to have learned how Dominicans who have never met each other can strike up a conversation like they have been best friends forever. Strangers greet each other as amigo or amiga. Mi amor (“my love”) is used commonly among men and women – even if they don’t know each other – and no one takes it as sexual harassment. Dominicans also typically say joven (“young one”) or amigo (a) (“friend”) to get someone’s attention, such as a waiter in a restaurant.

There personality type would be considered ESFP’s -The Entertainer. This stands for Extrovert, Spontaneous, Optimistic, Feeling, and a People’s Person. ESFP’s are spontaneous, optimistic and enjoy being the center of attention. They are also out-going, social and crave excitement. An ESFP is a true ’people-person’ and dislikes being alone.
Although ESFP’s prefer to avoid activities that require analytical or theoretical thinking, they have a practical side that makes them skilled problem-solvers. Extroverts get anxious when left alone and get energy from social interaction. I can say that as a leader I can definitely relate to this personality type and I would be able to adapt well. Me and Dominicans would get along just fine!
In conclusion, as a global leader it is
important to know what kind of personality type you have ,as well as your
business partner’s. I think that by knowing this it will help you, your
partner, and team to work better with each other. "One of the biggest
differences between introverts and extroverts is how they process
circumstances." Introverts can be described as internal processors their
thoughts are always going, circulating, evaluating, and concluding. They may
appear to be silent but their minds are loud and active. Extroverts are outside
thinkers they think outside of themselves, make decisions with others,
verbalized a situation, and manage conflict through verbal communication.
Sometimes opposites attract but in this case my personality and Dominicans are
very similar.
