MBTI, Growing up, and jobs: IDEAS

[AkaruiRain]

I was just thinking on a larger scale than I usually do, so I'll probably be wrong, but eh, innocent speculation here.




WHY THERE ARE LESS INTUITIVE JOBS AND MORE SENSOR JOBS AVAILIBLE:


1.)

There are more technical-degree jobs open and less "intuitive" types, such as being a psychologist. Things like plumbers and electricians are in higher demand, because little people are interested in working a traditional "sensor" job. More intuitive types are being created with increased pressure on a child's mental capacity and putting it at full potential-- but when the kid grows up, he finds that there are less intuitive jobs out there because the number of intuitive people have grown.


OR


2.)

Parents raise their Sensor kids enforcing the idea that the more intuitive jobs are better than traditional sensor careers, leaving their kid to flop around and maybe get through college to become a successful whatever, and satisfying their parents. Which leaves less intuitive jobs for those who are naturally intuitive, and more sensor jobs.

I once took a Communication in Business course and it was agreed upon by virtual every employer that the one most valuable skill that employers look for in the promotion of employees is communication skills and the ability to lead groups.

The Belbin Model

and team roles based upon the MBTI place Intuitive types in a minor, more or less expendable, role.

Oddly, enough intelligence is not much valued as a marketable trait, unless it is applied to handful of technical specialities - or so it seems.
