Myers Briggs Personality Test

Our Myers-Briggs specialists at Leone Centre only use the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator questionnaire.

Based in Central London, we work with companies around the UK. We are also one of the leading organisations to offer Myers Briggs individual and couple packages face-to-face or online to our clients around the world.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is one of the most widely used and recognisable psychological tools to help people better understand themselves and others. It is commonly referred to as a test, but the comprehensive process simply consists of a series of questions, the results of which will assess the individual’s personality type; within the MBTI, there are 16 possible personality types.

As Myers-Briggs Type Indicator specialists for individuals and teams, Leone Centre is a provider of experienced and accredited practitioners to enable you to get the best out of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Our range of services is broad, from tailor-made one-to-one sessions to MBTI team away days, MBTI workshops, MBTI team building events and MBTI training workshops.

A typical MBTI training workshop looks at improving communication, enhancing team problem-solving, valuing diversity and providing a non-judgemental way to approach team dynamics and team building.

Relationships and MBTI Personality Types

When you understand personality preferences, you can more readily appreciate differences between yourself and the people closest to you, such as spouses, partners, work colleagues and friends. In most areas of life, when differences are getting in the way, it can significantly impact your relationships and, on occasion, impact your well-being.

Knowledge of personality type allows you to see those differences as just those different ways of “being.” Instead of labelling a person and putting value judgments on their behaviour, you can learn to see it as behaviour reflecting a personality type, not something designed to offend you. Many people learn to appreciate these differences following an MBTI and may even come to see them in a humorous light.

At Leone Centre, we often suggest that couples undertake an MBTI Personality Type intervention as part of their couples counselling / marriage counselling process. The use of type can create a neutral ground, a non-judgmental language for discussing misunderstandings and irritations. Change in a relationship can begin when there is respect for the qualities of each partner. Even when a relationship is ending in divorce, understanding the influence of type can lead to a much more amicable process and provide a less blaming perspective for what happened.

Knowledge of type preferences can also help couples and families negotiate differences in several key approaches to lifestyle, intimacy, division of chores, managing money, and other areas of potential conflict.

MBTI Personality Types Within Your Company

So How Can MBTI Help in the Workplace? 

The Myers-Briggs Personality Test can help evaluate the productivity, communication and overall cohesivity of your team. As with couple counselling, understanding the differences in personalities will encourage mutual respect in the workplace and assist workplace dynamics.

Benefits of Understanding MBTI Personality Type In The Workplace:

  1. Appreciate & Acknowledge Differences: Following a professional interpretation of the Myers-Briggs Personality Test, we help individuals to understand better how they perceive the world and make decisions.. This can be an incredibly enlightening experience as you can see the world from a brand new perspective and can come away with an appreciation for your differences and recognise that relationships would not be as productive or stimulating without them. It is important to remember that no one personality type is superior to the other, as every type is equal. It is best to think of the MBTI as a level spectrum in which everyone has their unique spot.
  2. Improved Teamwork: Understanding how your colleagues tick is crucial in creating great team performance. An example might be frustration at the lack of decisiveness from one team member who might, in turn,, be annoyed that others are pushing them so hard. Recognising these differences means that the workplace can structure their teams accordingly for the most productive dynamics.
  3. Improved Hierarchical Relationships: Recognising your manager’s or your direct reports thought, and decision-making process might enable you to understand how to get the best out of people in their role.
  4. Understand Your Role: The Myers-Briggs Personality Test can also assist in helping you recognise why you might be feeling frustrated and unhappy in your role. For example, if your workplace is concentrated with very contrasting personality types, it might help you to understand why you might feel out of place or different in some way. This asymmetrical dynamic can affect the workplace culture, communication and, ultimately, productivity.

What is the difference between being extroverted and an introverted?

An extrovert is a person who encompasses particular personality traits that include being outgoing, sociable, energetic, talkative, and positive. Typically, someone who draws energy from being around and in contact with other people.

An introvert is a person who generally has personality traits that include enjoying one’s own company, having a small group of friends, coming across as shy at first, and being comfortable in their inner thoughts. Typically, someone who feels drained of energy when being around lots of people draws energy and recharges by spending some time with themselves.
