Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®)

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®)

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) is a personality assessment framework that categorises individuals into 16 distinct types based on four core preference dimensions: Energy Orientation, Information Processing, Decision-Making, and Approach to the Outside World. This validated instrument provides a structured methodology for enhancing self-awareness and understanding behavioural preferences in professional environments. Organisations utilise the framework to strengthen team cohesion, improve communication effectiveness, and optimise collaborative workflows, while individuals leverage these insights for strategic career development and interpersonal skill enhancement.

Organisational Benefits

The MBTI® framework provides organisations with a powerful, neutral language for understanding and optimising workplace dynamics. It delivers a structured approach to enhancing team cohesion, improving communication across different functions, and reducing unproductive conflict. By clarifying the natural preferences and potential blind spots of various personality types, it allows for the construction of more balanced and effective teams, leading to increased collaborative output and a more resilient organisational culture.

 

Individual Benefits

For the individual professional, MBTI® assessment and coaching offer a validated framework for profound self-discovery. It empowers individuals to understand their innate preferences and potential sources of workplace stress. This self-awareness is foundational for personal development, enabling professionals to navigate career choices more strategically, adapt their communication for greater influence, and build more effective and authentic working relationships, thereby accelerating their professional growth and job satisfaction.
