Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

Team Building Workshops


We conduct interactive Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) team building workshops for organisations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Hobart, Darwin and regional locations across Australia.

The MBTI is the most widely used personality assessment in the world, with over 2 million people taking it each year. It is based on over 50 years of research and is used for personal development, career counselling, team building, leadership training, management training, executive coaching and relationship counselling.

The MBTI contains 93 multiple choice items and takes approximately 15-20 minutes.

The Myers Briggs assesses employees’ personality preferences based
on the following four scales:

 

Extraversion (E) – Introversion (I)

  • Extraversion – Energised by the outside world of people, activities and things.
  • Introversion – Energised by the inner world of thoughts, feelings and reflections.

Sensing (S) – Intuition (N)

  • Sensing – Look for facts and details. Practical, concrete thinkers.
  • Intuition – Look for patterns and connections. Ideas-oriented, abstract thinkers.

Thinking (T) – Feeling (F)

  • Thinking – Make decisions based on logic and objective facts.
  • Feeling – Make decisions based on personal values and feelings.

Judging (J) – Perceiving (P)

  • Judging – Preference for living a planned, organised and structured life.
  • Perceiving – Preference for living a casual, flexible and spontaneous life.

Outcomes of the MBTI Workshop:

  • Improved understanding of employees’ personality types and their behaviours
  • Improved relationships between managers and staff
  • Increased productivity through making constructive use of individual differences
  • Improved communication between team members
  • A reduction in workplace conflict

Workshops are normally run over half a day, however, we can adjust the timeframe to suit your requirements. Workshops are conducted on-site at your premises or preferred conference venue.

Testimonials

"Katie ran a great half-day workshop with two small teams based in Google Sydney Australia. Every member of the team came away significantly more insightful about what makes their colleagues 'tick'; what new behaviours they may need to adopt as a result of accommodating the needs of different people; and overall were a little more informed about their stress points and natural thinking and behavioural preferences. One team member mentioned "I look forward to applying what we've learned in day-to-day team situations". Another team member mentioned that the behaviour of "different types... was both fascinating and amusingly accurate. It has given me a much greater understanding of how to identify and communicate with different personalities in the future.

Our only regret is that we didn't rollout the course a few months earlier! Personally, I would strongly recommend this workshop for teams that are newly forming and/or in situations where work tasks demand quite diverse behavioural types. That said, it's beneficial to any team and at any point in time".

Hi Katie,
"Thank you for the team building session yesterday. I gained some useful insights and was able to reflect on my preferred style of working and the ways that it can impact on my colleagues. It provided a useful starting point for us to consider more effective ways of working together as well as for working with our clients. You facilitated the session extremely well and did a fine job of managing our group of 'enthusiastic and imaginative' extroverts! ".

Thanks again and all the best.
