Using MBTI To Strengthen

Your Organization

Because your people are your number one resource, it often means many personalities working together in

the same office. This can lead to great collaboration, as much as difficult conflicts and misunderstood

communications. Let us help bring personality knowledge to you and your staff and give you the tools to discern

traits and preferences.

We are Certified Myers-Brigg (MBTI) Practitioners and have been working with many workplace personalities for

over 10 years. We offer workshops that highlight personality strengths and bring to light personality

challenges. Let's get the whole team on the same page and get past personality issues.

The World’s Most Widely -

Used Personality Assessment

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment is

a psychometric questionnaire designed to

measure psychological preferences in how people

perceive the world and make decisions. The MBTI is

98% reliable on retesting and has 50 years of proven

data behind it.

Have you ever said?

“I work for a difficult boss.”

“I want to know my areas of

weakness and build my strengths.”

“My team must meet high

performance

requirements and needs

to maximize its ability to

deliver results.”

“I’m interested in my

personal growth and

development.”

“Why are some people

talkative and others are

not?”

“My team doesn't get

along with each

other.”

“I’ve been given

feedback that I need to change

the way I interact with

others.”

“Why does my significant other do

those things that just irritate me!”

That’s where the MBTI

Assessment comes in handy

Workshop:

The MBTI is the most well-known personality instrument, having been used for over 50 years. It provides insight into extraversion and introversion, how we bring in information, make decisions and order our environment. When all of these factors are put together, it gives us clarity and insight into our own personality preferences, as well as others. „

The learner will be able to:

Identify their MBTI personality preference based on their online assessment

Use the dominant functions for deeper understanding

Recognize their personality strengths and weaknesses and how to replace weaknesses with skill

Realize when stress and/or illness cause personality problems and how to deal with them

Who Should Attend

Anyone interested in understanding their personality and how they interact with others.

QUICK FACTS

Research shows that 60-80% of all difficulties in organizations stem from strained relationships between employees.

The typical manager spends 25-40% of their time dealing with workplace conflict.

85% of dismissals in the US are due to personality conflicts.

80% of companies employ some type of assessment either during the hiring process or when making talent management decisions internally.

Workshop:

After we did MBTI training with our office staff, they all wanted their spouses and significant others to go through it as well. The insights learned have improved their communication and understanding of each other‟s differences.

QUICK FACTS

40% of conflict stem from preference differences in the „judging/perceiving‟ category.

Conflicts emerge especially between people who prefer to start early versus those who need to be pressure or prompted.

Those with a strong „thinking‟ preference scan for what’s wrong in order to correct it.

Those with a strong „feeling‟ preference scan for what’s right to support it.

Couples with personality differences who find ways to support and understand each other often find their relationships especially rewarding.

The MBTI type distribution data indicates that ISFJ (13.8%), ESFJ (12.3%), ISTJ (11.8%), ISFP (8.8%) and ESTJ (8.7%) are the top type preferences. That makes for some pretty dynamic personalities on a team.

Misconceptions about the MBTI

Many people have misconceived notions of the MBTI Assessment. Some are explained below for clarity:

Misconception #1: The MBTI is a personality test.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® is an indicator (or assessment), not a test. The term test assumes that there is a right or wrong answer, or the opportunity to pass or fail. There is no right or wrong personality type. In addition, there is no one best personality type.

Misconception #2: I took the Myers-Briggs online last night for free.

No, you didn‟t. Unfortunately you were deceived by someone pretending to have a free version of the MBTI. An MBTI assessment has to be given by a Qualified Practitioner who uses SkillsOne to administer the MBTI.

Misconception #3: The MBTI report said I was an ESTJ, but I feel like I am an ISTJ. I guess I am wrong.

You have the ultimate final say on your personality type. After all, you are the expert on you! It is okay to question if the report accurately describes you as a whole. No assessment can ask enough questions to explain all of the intricacies of personality, preferences, or behaviors.

Misconception #4: Wow! This MBTI thing is cool; I should use it to select new employees.

The use of the MBTI in selecting employees is unethical. Again, there is no one right personality type, and every type can function in any role.

Misconception #5: I’m one of 16 types? I feel more unique than that!

That‟s right! You are not one of 16 types. Within the 16 different types, there are even more individual differences. The MBTI Step II highlights 20 of those differences. Specifically, there are 5 facets that explain differences for each dichotomy.

Misconception #6: I found out I’m an Introvert, but I’m in a sales job. I guess I should find a new career.

Remember, the MBTI is about preferences, not ability. While it is true that people typically gravitate towards careers that complement their natural preferences, that does not mean you cannot function in an environment that is “out of preference” for you.

Misconception #7: I had a really high score on Thinking, so I’m REALLY good at that!

What many people interpret as “scores” on the MBTI are not indices of ability, skill, or intelligence. Rather, they reflect the clarity with which your answers reflected that preference.

Misconception #8: I’ve changed my type several times.

According to Jung‟s theory, you do not change type. Type (preferences) is inborn in you and never changes. The best way to understand this is the right hand/left hand example. A right handed person can function left-handed. And over time can become more and more comfortable using their left hand. However, given the chance, they will naturally want to use their right hand. That natural preference towards their right hand will never go away.

Misconception #9: My husband doesn’t need to take the MBTI, I can guess what his type is.

You may have a guess as to what someone‟s personality type is, but there is a big danger in teaching someone their type based on a guess. What if you are wrong? This may hinder their development rather than promote development. We make assumptions about others‟ preferences constantly, and in many ways we do so in an effort to aid in communication. However, when there is the possibility of taking the actual MBTI, it is necessary to do so.

Misconception #10: I hope that my team members all have my personality type, because that would be the best team

ever! While that team may have the fewest disagreements, there is danger in wanting to surround yourself with only your type. A diverse group will have a greater likelihood of generating creative, unique results. If there is diversity in type, discussions will be more in-depth because each person approaches a decision differently because of their preferences. Conflict and disagreements should not be a negative thing, if handled with proper constructive communication. A diverse group can generate the most well- thought through results.
