Differences in personality behavior, both in personal and professional settings, result from people’s tendencies to use their minds in diverse ways, called preferences. These preferences, all normal and valuable human behaviors, interact and combine to create a psychological type.
Based on Carl G. Jung’s theories of personality, MBTI will identify participants as one of 16 personality types, and provide a clear understanding of the remaining types. It is this understanding of each type that will lead to a greater understanding of team dynamics as well as better communication, for the confirming nature of the questionnaire encourages self-discovery and respect for human differences.
The MBTI is based on over 50 years of research and development and is the most widely used instrument for understanding normal personality differences.
