Myers-Briggs Type Indicator ® and Team Building

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) is a nonjudgmental instrument that helps individuals and teams to understand theirselves and others in a way that is value-oriented versus evaluative. MBTI provides an indication of preferences. The preferences refer to gathering energy or processing thoughts; being detail-oriented versus big picture in gathering information; being objective or subjective in decision making; and being structured or go-with-the-flow in orienting our lifestyle. In this course, participants will complete a 95-question instrument and identify a four-letter MBTI type. Participants will increase their awareness of how their preferences and others’ preferences influence their daily behaviors.
