The Campaigner

Campaigners are high-energy, affectionate, and passionate romantic partners. They are committed to finding their soulmate and want to form a genuine connection with whoever they are dating. ENFPs bring lots of energy and emotion to a relationship, and need for that energy to be reciprocated. Because of this, they tend to favor long-term relationships, where they can rely on and build a deep partnership with their counterpart. At times, Campaigners get so tired of casual dating that they throw themselves too quickly into a relationship. And the opposite is also sometimes true: Campaigners struggle to focus on the present and may perceive that there is something better out there, idealizing the perfect relationship and using it as a standard for dating.

Campaigners love for their relationships to be exciting and adventurous, and struggle when they feel that it has become too monotonous. While their dedication to the relationship is important, they may find it difficult to separate their own personality from the relationship itself. Their desire for the "perfect" relationship means that if one fails, the Campaigner may find it hard to bounce back after dating, and can become overly introspective and self-blaming.

In the workplace, Campaigners are most at home when collaborating with others. They can often be found in the performing arts, production, the health sector, or in journalism. They are incredibly versatile and are willing to take on many tasks so long as they are passionate about them—that said, if the Campaigner finds a task menial then they may not excel at it. ENFPs sometimes struggle with focus and can have problems committing to a single career path.

Campaigners are highly motivated workers who enjoy finding personal success in their jobs, but need a less restrictive workplace so that they may complete a task in their own way. That being said, it is important that the Campaigner acquires clear instructions so long as they are not too constraining. They are excellent at coming up with new and original ideas, and dedicating energy to improving pre-existing practices. Generally speaking, ENFPs like to focus on bigger projects, and have a tendency to inadvertently overlook small details.

Campaigners love to look ahead to the future — but because of this, they can sometimes overlook what is going on in the present. They may miss key details or procrastinate tasks in favor of dreaming ahead. Campaigners' emotions run very high, and they need regular reassurance from those closest to them, or those emotions may turn negative. Above all, ENFPs value the freedom to operate as they please, and may struggle if they feel overly constrained or micromanaged in a given situation.

Campaigners are all about the big picture, and may give too much freedom to their team members as they tend to overlook small details. Thanks to their own personal need for freedom, they may  struggle to give guidelines and directions, which can at times delay projects or cause confusion. This type loves to give out praise, and struggles to criticize failed work. While conflict rarely occurs under an ENFP's leadership, they may find it difficult to resolve interpersonal challenges, as they are not the most effective mediators.

Campaigners are highly social and emotional individuals who thrive when they have a close social circle with which they can share their dreams and passions.
