Myers-Briggs Type Indicator - MBTI
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator - MBTI instrument is the most widely used personality inventory in history. It can be used to make important business, career, or personal decisions. Last year alone, two million people gained valuable insight about themselves and the people they interact with daily by taking the MBTI instrument.
There is a total of 93 questions on the MBTI inventory. The questions help you determine preferences on four scales:
1. Extroversion-Introversion
2. Sensing-Intuition
3. Thinking-Feeling
4. Judging-Perceiving.
Your answers to these questions will help show how you like to look at things and how you like to go about deciding things. There are no "right" or "wrong" answers. Knowing your own preferences and learning about other people's can help you understand what you strengths are, what kinds of work you might enjoy, and how people with different preferences can relate to one another and contribute to society.
