Objectives
Analyze the functions of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and its relevance to job performance, meaningful connections, and career planning.
Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of MBTI.
Background
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a personality test used to profile individual personality types. First developed in the 1940s by Isabel Myers and Katharine Briggs, the test has been adapted by several scholars over the past several decades. Though at times generating some controversies over its relevancy, it continues to be a tool used by organizations to better understand how individuals’ personalities within their current or potential employees match the identified requirements for various roles.

Did any of the dimensions on your personality type surprise you? i.e., Were you surprised to learn you were an introvert when you thought you were an extrovert?

The self-report questionnaire is designed to show an individual’s psychological preferences relevant in job performance, making meaningful connections and in making decisions and career planning. The results of my self-report questionnaire are indicated above. I must admit that I was a bit surprised b the accuracy of these findings. Within forty minutes into the test, I was perplexed by the degree of introversion. I knew I was a bit of an introvert, by not at 47% preference over extraversion. I was also surprised that I scored a mere 3% in my preference for sensing over intuition. I would have scored my sensing at a relatively higher level. In regards to judging and thinking, I believe that the test is pretty accurate and perfectly describes my personality trait.
