Description: The MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is a personality inventory used to measure an individual’s preferred ways of being in and processing the world.

The MBTI has been widely research in many different settings with many different populations. See publication information above for further information on the instrument.

Participants will be able to take a self-scored MBTI, have the results interpreted, and work with other participants in exploring the values of different types in personal and professional settings.

The self-score MBTI will be provided at least a week ahead and needs to be returned at least three days before the scheduled session.
