INFJ Strengths

Every personality archetype has strengths and blind spots, and these are often amplified in professional settings where we often encounter a diverse group of people with vastly different backgrounds and value systems.

INFJs have many skills that can make a major difference to those around them. When aware of their own abilities, INFJs can use their strengths to leave a positive impact on others, both at work and in their personal lives.

Myers-Briggs INFJ Strengths

Strengths that are typically associated with the INFJ personality type include...

  • Sensitivity to the needs of those around them
  • Idealistic thinking that enables change
  • Ability to connect deeply with other people
  • Unwavering commitment to their values
  • Desire to help better the lives of others

INFJs tend to be very aware of what other people need. They’re naturally empathetic and in tune with those around them, so they’re often able to predict people are thinking or feeling. This may lead them to take on a caring or nurturing role in others’ lives.

They have a deep sense of optimism that often motivates positive change. They often trust in people’s goodness to help make the world a better, more united place. Their hopeful spirit can help inspire others to contribute to important causes.

INFJs are able to connect deeply with those around them. They are good listeners, who are able to serve as a helpful friend or confidante to those who need it. They seek close relationships with others, often using their skills to build strong, reliable friendships.

They are driven by their convictions and values. Their understanding of their own motivations helps them push them toward growth and change. They want to see improvement in the world and are constantly dreaming up new ways to do contribute.

INFJs want to bring about change that can truly help others. They tend to be motivated more by their impact on other people than by financial or professional success. 

Engaging in tasks they’re strong at will help INFJs feel happier and work more productively. They’ll have the opportunity to both actively engage with their work and use their strengths to their benefit, which may help them stick with a position long term.
