ƒ What the MBTI is:
• Measure of our dominant preferences for taking in
information and making decisions
• May not be polarised clearly between scales
• So, you can be “a little of both”
• No pprofile is better or worse than another
• Helps explain our working style preferences
• Based on the theory of Carl Jung
ƒ What the MBTI isn’t:
• A measure of abilities – it’s not a test
• No right or wrong answers
• Tool is an ‘indicator’ – you can agree or disagree
