What is the MBTI®

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) is an extremely popular personality measure worldwide. It was developed by Isabel Myers and Katherine Briggs and is based on C. J. Jung's Theory of Type. It is a powerful and versatile indicator of personality type. The MBTI® is widely used for individual, group and organisational development.

It provides a constructive framework for looking at how people prefer to take in information, make decisions and live their lives.

The MBTI® instrument is an exceptionally versatile tool that provides individuals and teams with a powerful understanding of their own and others' personality styles.

How will the MBTI® help my team?

MBTI® is based on preferences and allows true insight into not only individuals, but also the way in which they interact in teams and how others perceive us.

MBTI® was designed by a mother/daughter partnership who wanted to test out theories first identified by Carl Jung, who suggested that people had different preferences which give them a different perspective on situations.

We know that differing perspectives and attitudes are highly relevant to understand how individuals and organisations interact and the needs of people in relation to motivation and leadership. By understanding each other (and ourselves) more fully we see:

Improved Communication
Better Cooperation
More Effective Teams
