MBTI

Based on the work of Jung and developed by Isabel Briggs Myers and Katharine Briggs, the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI)®  is the most widely used questionnaire for determining personality type. 

With over 50 years research and development, it provides a positive and constructive way of enhancing personal development. 

The MBTI® questionnaire describes an individual's personality preferences and represents these in four dimensions:

Extraversion

Prefers to draw energy from the outer world of activity, people and things

Introversion

Prefers to draw energy from the inner world of reflections, feelings and ideas

Sensing

Prefers to focus on information gained from the five senses and on practical applications

Intuition

 
Prefers to focus on patterns, connections and possible meanings

Thinking

 
Prefers to base decisions on logic and objective analysis of cause and effect

Feeling

 
Prefers to base decisions on a valuing process, considering what is important to people

Judging

 
Likes a planned, organised approach to life, and prefers to have things decided

Perceiving

 
Likes a flexible spontaneous approach and prefers to keep options open

The four dimensions combine to form 16 different psychological types - each with its own particular strengths and gifts.  Understanding your type provides you with a unique insight in to your own personal style of thinking, behaving, decision making and perception.

The MBTI®  instrument can be applied to business, educational, career guidance and personal counselling settings and has broad practical applications including:

• improving communication skills

• career coaching

• counselling and resolving conflict

• enhanced problem solving and decision making

• planning, implementing and managing organisational change

• stress management

• leadership development and coaching

• team building
