Career choice is based on many factors including personality. In fact, John Holland based his theory of career choice on the 6 most prominent personality types.
What are the best careers for enterprising people?
People who have an enterprising personality are good with a word, which is a talent they can use very effectively in many different jobs, including those which involve selling and leading.
They are very persuasive and they enjoy convincing others that they are right. This is useful for sales jobs and can also be used in negotiations in any business or career.
Enterprising personalities tend to be confident, adventurous, energetic, as well as enthusiastic and dominant.
So, now that we have a clear picture of what an enterprising individual is like, let’s take a look at some career choices which would suit them.
Jobs in the business arena are well suited to enterprising people, who can be competitive and aggressive. They often do very well in jobs related to areas such as finance, real estate , business education and administration.
Jobs which involve project management and decision making are also a good match for this personality type. Quite a few of the related jobs are high powered and pay very well for example jobs in financial services, and advertising and marketing. Managerial roles in these fields and indeed, managerial jobs in general, would be good choices. Law is another profession in which an enterprising nature comes in handy.
Enterprising people may also wish to set up their own businesses and areas so that provides scope of people interested in all sorts of fields. Some examples are plumbers, hairdressers, life coaches, web designers and private detectives.
