The power of personality
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) assessment is one of the world’s most popular personality tools. It’s simple, yet powerful, and introduces a common language for referring to and discussing personality preferences that play an essential role in our everyday life. The MBTI assessment and its process of self-discovery gives a framework for understanding and appreciating differences in others.
Understanding yourself and others provides a unique perspective and opens up possibilities—in your job, your relationships and your life in general.
