The Myers Briggs Type Indicator was an eye opener for me, not only in the sense of leadership, but in the sense of who I am as a person. After analyzing the results, I was impressed with how much this survey matched my personality. With people having different types of personalities, there is going to be different types of leadership. My four letter personality type is ESFJ. This is a sensing type and stands for: extraverted feeling with sensing. Those four letters explain that my personality…

The purpose of this project is to utilize the results generated by the Myers-Briggs Personality assessment to obtain my personality type and evaluate the validity of the results.

Career Assessment When I was told we were going to be taking a personality test, I was really at the least enthusiastic about it. In high school I was taken through countless tests that would “find the perfect job” for me, and they never seemed to help. This Jung Typology test was different, I was pleasantly surprised. The questions were much more motivation based instead of interest based. For me, interest based tests are unreliable, considering the fact that I am interested in everything. The…

think about the method to figure out our personality? There are two theories, which help people’s personalities: The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and the Horoscope. The origins of these two systems are totally different. Instead of test of the MBTI, the way that the Horoscope uses is simple according to people’s birthday. Even though there are differences between Myer-Briggs Type Indicator and the Horoscope, both them could help people figure out their personalities and develop…

my MBTI, Holland Code, and Strengths is an essential part of preparing myself for a career, and ultimately knowing about myself as an individual and how to deal with situations and life in general. Prior to taking this course, I knew that my Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is INTP and I knew what the letters stood for, but I had absolutely no clue what they meant.

-According to the Myers-Briggs type personality test, my type is ENFJ (34% Extravert, 9% Intuitive, 34% Feeling, and 12% Judging). The results showed that I have a moderate preference of extraversion over introversion, a slight preference of intuition over sensing, a moderate preference of feeling over thinking, and a slight preference of judging over perceiving. However, I am not sure how accurate these results are. For example, my results showed I have a moderate preference of extraversion…

1. My personality type is ISTJ. I was not really surprised to get this because I have taken the full version test in high school, but I am happy to see that the results are consistent. An ISTJ is a natural organizer. I stands for Introvert, and I think this describes me well. I do like to share my opinion and have my ideas recognized, however, I am not a person that needs to be the center of attention. I would rather lead by example not force. I am perfectly okay with having time to myself. I…
