MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)

Allstar Training working in partnership with Switch Direction

Overview

The quality of working relationships in a team and within business is fundamental to its success. The MBTI tool allows people to understand themselves and the importance of how differences at work enable a stronger more versatile team in identifying different perspectives.
The activity based session allows people to develop a deeper understanding of their own preferred style and their impact on others in the workplace. People will gain an insight into how they may need to adjust their “natural” style to get good results. It will help managers or people working alongside others to answer the question “what’s it like to work with / for me?”
The MBTI session requires honesty and openness from the group. If there are unspoken frictions within a group, it a good way for these to be explored and underlined in a controlled way. This session works well with groups of any sizes.
