Intuitive Logical Extravert ILE (ENTp, Ne-Ti): INNOVATOR
ILE has a somewhat scattered, roaming, thoughtful gaze. At times he
becomes acutely attentive, openly studying the person before him, the
details of his appearance, the surrounding objects, the interior of the
room, and so on. Occasionally he assumes a serious attitude and an air
of importance, or looks at his conversation partner directly while
thinking about something of his own. His facial mimicry changes little
during conversation. His face at times expresses sense of shyness and
awkwardness. ILE frequently smiles trying to positively predispose his
conversation partner. This smile seems cordial but not very natural, may
be inadequate to the situation. His manners and behavior are
unconstrained, democratic, sometimes overly free and libertine. He tries
to appear easy-going and natural, can spread out and lounge while
sitting. His movements often are uncoordinated and irresolute. It seems
that he doesn't know what to do with his hands, or leans on something
even when there is no need. Back may be a little stooped, or he walks
with slightly bent knees superfluously swinging around his hands.
INVENTOR (Ne-ENTp)
APPEARANCE: Makes an impression of a detached, floating in the clouds,
and childishly naïve person. Socially adept conversationalist. Reads
much and is inquisitive. Willingly discusses new information with his
friends and associates, shows interest in their opinion. His seemingly
soft demeanor is combined with obstinacy and imperturbability when he
has to defend his views. Likes to discuss things but rarely if ever ends
these discussions in conflict. Often smiles at others even if they
haven't provided any occasion for this. With the same smile talks about
both ridiculous and serious subject matters. Usually he is kind with
everyone and doesn't readily take offense at critical remarks. In his
undertakings and projects he is patient, and, despite being somewhat
forgetful and scattered, if he is really interested in something he will
follow it through to completion. His gestures and speech seem either
slowed down or accelerated. His pose seems at ease, gaze is scattered
and defocused, gait and movements lack in certainty and firmness.
CHARACTER: Interested in new, unusual or poorly understood phenomena.
Curious. Usually reads a lot and has a wide circle of interests. Likes
to surprise others with sensational news. Good at seeing potential
prospects of various ideas and undertakings. If he is sufficiently
provided for, prefers to occupy himself with that which is interesting
instead of that which brings a return. Can get thoroughly engaged with
one project or problem if for him it is interesting or beneficial.
Needs periodic emotional shake-ups. Feels delighted to have fun in a
circle of friends. Loves those who are friendly, confident, optimistic,
and can elevate the mood with provocative humor. Poorly sees how people

long time. Dislikes rushing things. Due to this, may manifest initiative
with much delay, when the opportunity is already gone.

his work, attempting to make up for lost time. Resourceful and

initiative, unless he is faced with a crisis situation, which stimulates
him and increases his vitality. Then he begins to actively engage in
work, he promptly carries out his assignments not sparing time or
resources. Dislikes routine and any regimented, monotonous work. Cannot
live by a strict schedule.
His character combines qualities of kindness, idealism, and trusting
nature. Because of his innate impracticality and gullibility, he can be
easily fooled. A sense of justice and faith in the best qualities are
inherent to him, so he finds it difficult to come to a realization of
such let-downs. Rarely gives compliments but is usually well-wishing
towards other people, tries to understand their wishes and needs, to be
helpful to all. Gladly gives advice on how to get out of difficult
situations. Avoids disagreements and conflicts. Supports good, friendly
relations. If necessary, attempts to explain the reasons for his
mistakes and unethical actions.
Not vain. Defends his own interests with less vigor than the interests
of those whom he cares for, although sometimes he can become principled
and unyielding in matters that are of importance to him. Not always
responsible and can promise that which he isn't able to deliver. Knowing
this, he sometimes resorts to never giving promises to anyone not to
spoil his relations.
Reluctantly deals with everyday life, yielding initiative to others over
such matters. In issues that concern aesthetics often relies on tastes
of his partner. Quite absent-minded and sometimes forgets what he needs
to do. Getting distracted by the little things, sometimes runs out of
time to meet important deadlines. Having to live by a schedule and

offense at minor things, however, after some time he once again becomes
well-wishing and amicable. His behavior is unpredictable and full of
contrasts. His gaze is at times scattered and at other times testing and
tenacious. Gait and gestures are swinging, seem confident but poorly

something that is important and fundamental for him. Often completely

been proven wrong, it is difficult for him to admit it. Does not succumb

without any actual chances of success. In arguments and discussions he
is excitable and often hot tempered. When he is put under pressure he

with people. Has difficulties creating positive, stable relationships,
but despite being scattered he usually tries to keep his promises.
Mistrustful of feelings. Afraid to show how he feels being uncertain in
subsequent reaction of his partner. Painfully experiences uncertainty in

which at times imparts an expression of innocence, romanticism, and
musing. SLE's smile does not always correspond to the expression in his

response to some specific occasion, and not to positively predispose his
conversation partner. His movements are well coordinated and
harmonious, although can be somewhat gusty. His gait is usually smooth,
confident, flexible, "cat-like". SLE knows how to carry himself, even
