EJ (Extroverted Judger) is dynamic and rational, perceiving reality as continuously and gradually, often imperceptibly, changing. At the same time, EJ holds their own view of what reality "should" be. This creates a tendency to act quickly, usually through the leading function, to maintain or realize the state things should be in before the change grows too large.
As an extrovert, EJ tends to feel responsible for initiating contact with others in the context of establishing or maintaining relationships. However, this does not necessarily mean they act on it; sometimes they wish others would take on this role.
