An Introduction to Myers-Briggs

In the 1940’s, Isabel Briggs Myers, and her mother, Katharine Briggs, decided to interpret the writings of Carl Jung to make his model more useable in everyday life. After some tweaking, Briggs Myers & Briggs added two additional opposing “attitudes,” reflecting on interactions with the outside world. The new attitudes were Perceiving and Judging. The Myers-Briggs model consists of 16 distinct personality types.

The Myers-Briggs model helps explain why people are interested in different things, why people choose to do certain jobs, and why people find it difficult to relate to one another. The theory is simple: people take in information differently, and make decisions in unique and personal ways.

Why is knowing your personality type useful?

• Companies can use the results to improve employee communication, teamwork and leadership
• Adults and young people can use the results to choose a career best suited to their interests and decision-making ways
• Teachers and students can use the results to create new ways of learning
• Family members and co-workers can use the results to better understand each others unique personalities
