Do you want to improve your communication skills? Get ahead at the office? Choose a new career? The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) has a report to help you.
Although the Myers Briggs is considered a test, it's actually an assessment developed by Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother Katherine Cook Briggs based on the idea that we each have preferred ways of doing things. For example, we are either right-handed or left-handed. This does not mean that if you are right handed, you cannot write with your left hand. However, you prefer to write with your right hand.
The MBTI assesses your personality in four dichotomous dynamic energy systems:
Introvert: | Generally prefers to communicate by reading and writing |
|
Extrovert: | Generally prefers to communicate and learn by talking and listening |
| |
Sensing: | Prefers to deal with facts |
iNtuiting: | Prefers to deal with possibilities |
| |
Thinking: | Most concerned with treating everyone equally |
Feeling: | Most concerned with treating everyone fairly |
| |
Judging: | Decisive, planned and orderly |
Perceiving: | Prefers to keep their options open |
These preferences work together to make you who you are. They influence many things including how you communicate, what type of work environment you prefer and your time-management style.
Your MBTI results will help you:
- Understand your innate preferences, and the preferences of others, which can help you become a better communicator and a more effective leader
- Understand how you like to work, which skills you prefer to use and the type of environment where you feel most comfortable, which can help you choose a career
