An enterprising personality type is often a leader who is talented at organizing, persuading and managing. They enjoy money, power, status and being in charge.
An enterprising personality type solves problems by taking risks. Instead of doing research, this person relies on intuition about what will work. They may strike an observer as restless and irresponsible since they often drop these projects after the job is underway.
