Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

The world's most popular personality measurement developed by Isabel Myers and Katharine C Briggs.

A powerful and versatile indicator of personality type. Widely used for individual, group and organisational development.

This tool allows individuals to discover:

• Where they get their energy
• How they take in information
• How they make decisions
• How they orientate themselves in the world

What it measures:

The MBTI instrument describes an individual's preferences on four dimensions. The person either has a preference for:

Extraverted Prefers to draw energy from the outer world of activity, people and things	or	Introverted 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	or	Intuitive Prefers to focus on patterns, connections and possible meanings
Thinking Prefers to base decisions on logic and objective analysis of cause and effect	or	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	or	Perceiving Likes a flexible, spontaneous approach and prefers to keep options open

The various combinations of these preferences result in 16 personality 'types', each associated with a unique set of behavioural characteristics and values, which provide a useful starting point for individual feedback, self-exploration or group discussion.

Applications:

The MBTI instrument is very versatile and widely used for many purposes including:

• Individual development - identifying leadership style, developing managerial potential, time and stress management, and executive coaching
• Team building and team development - improving communication, enhancing team problem solving, valuing diversity and resolving conflict
• Organisational change - understanding and dealing with responses to rapid change, understanding team and corporate culture
• Improving communication - developing selling and influencing skills
• Education and career counselling - identifying learning styles and motivations, improving teaching and training methods, and providing career guidance
