Why INFJ leads
INFJs are reserved, principled, and quietly intense about the things that matter. ISFJs (careful, loyal, and the last to take an unnecessary risk) and ISFPs (gentle, present, and quietly experience-driven) round out the top three. At the other end, ESTPs are bold, impulsive, and biologically incapable of watching from the sidelines.
