Myers-Briggs Type Indicator
According to Kendra Cherry, MSEd, "The Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator is a self-report inventory designed to identify a person's personality type, strengths, and preferences. The questionnaire was developed by Isabel Myers and her mother Katherine Briggs based on their work with Carl Jung's theory of personality types. Today, the MBTI inventory is one of the world's most widely used psychological instruments."[1]
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment is used by more than 88 percent of Fortune 500 companies in 115 countries and available in 29 languages. It has become the go-to framework for people development globally.[2]
