A Guide to Self Perception
Have you ever wondered why you seem to relate better to some people than others? Why some of your colleagues seem to be on your wavelength whereas others have very different thought processes and styles? Have you ever asked yourself "Why don't they get it?" when an idea, conclusion or plan of action seems obvious to you?
The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is the most widely used instrument for understanding personality differences that can be the source of much misunderstanding and miscommunication between people. (Over two million questionnaires are completed each year worldwide). The MBTI, based on over fifty years of research, is extremely effective in enabling you to identify your strengths and provides in a practical way a better understanding of yourself, your motivations and potential areas for growth. Equally it will also enable you to understand and appreciate those who differ from you.
Myers-Briggs popularity is based on the fact that people love to learn about themselves. The indicator is very intuitive and the results are relatively easy for most to understand. A feeling of ‘coming home’ is often reported by those who go through the Myers-Briggs experience.
Before The Workshop
You will be asked to complete the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, a 93-question assessment that gathers personal preferences. The online assessment takes about 15 – 20 minutes and would need to be completed by Tuesday 2nd October.
During the Workshop
The results of each person’s MBTI will be provided to you at the workshop in a personalised report. These results are confidential to the recipient. However, there’s tremendous value in sharing this information, and participants virtually always do so.
