What do you think are the psychological types of each shark?
Here is my analysis.
Kevin O Leary: ENTj
I wrote out a paragraph of an explanation for why he is ENTJ, but it's so obvious to anyone that he's ENTJ that I removed it.
Barbara Corcoran: ENTp
She's basically a Kevin with a preference for perceiving over judging.
Quirky and open.
Mark Cuban: ENFp
Mark is clearly an extrovert. He's outspoken and frequently speaks his answers in a loud and unrestrained manner.
The Fi. He always talks about how much "value" a business brings (something that F's are notorious for. F's care more about values than objective facts). He also gets attached to hustlers who start from the bottom (the T's on the show don't get attached to entrepreneurs who shared similar pasts).
He's not your stereotypical ENFP, but his behaviors show that his brain structure resembles that of one.
Daymond John: ISTp
Clear introvert.
SP. Is very smooth in his language and body language, as all SPs are.
S over N because he frequently says "i don't know where this path leads, so I'm out." His clothing business is also the most traditional business compared to the businesses that the other sharks started.
T. He's always focused on whether numbers are adding up or not. He doesn't get emotionally attached as do Lori or Robert. He's not a cold robot, but he values facts over feelings.
Robert: INFj
The introversion, intuition, and feeling preferences are strong. No need for an explanation.
J because he actually got shit done. The majority of INFPs don't work hard and are incredibly disorganized. Period. (hint hint: their opposites, ESTJs, are absolute workaholics and organization machines). The majority of INFJs, on the other hand, are conscientious, OCD about organization, and actually do work.
Lori: INFj (or ENFp or ENFj?)
The intuition and feeling preferences are obvious. Her intuition allowed her to see many ideas and to act on them, and then sell her creations on QVC. Her feeling is also obvious when you see her caring and tactful approach to the contestants (contrast to Barbara and O Leary).
We've seen her invest once in a bad business simply because the contestant started crying on the show.
I entertained ENFP and ENFJ for her, but she's not as outspoken/direct as an ENFP or as overbearing/emotional as an ENFJ.
Conclusion
I'm confident on all of my typings except for Lori's.
What do you think?
Also, it's interesting to note that most entrepreneurs are N. The other dichotomies, such as E/I, F/T, or J/P, don't seem to matter as much. However, there is a spectrum. ENTJs are the entrepreneurial type. ENTJs take to entrepreneurship like a duck takes to water. Their opposites on the intuitive spectrum, the INFP, therefore has the capability to be entrepreneurial, but will have the most struggles with entrepreneurship.
