It is easy to assume that the same basic urges and motivations drive all people. Inreality, people have many similarities and many differences. These can lead tomisunderstandings. There are many personality indicators that demonstrate differences bymeasuring people’s preferences on a variety of factors. One of their purposes is to helpindividuals understand themselves and others better. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® orMBTI® dates back to the 1920’s. The Swiss-born psychiatrist, Carl G. Jung, suggested thathuman behavior was not random and that, in fact, it could be both predicted and groupedtogether. In his first works published in English, Jung expressed his belief that humans are bornwith a predisposition to certain personality preferences, just like they are born with apredisposition to right or left hand.
At the same time, Katherine Briggs, independently of Jung, had been observingthe personality differences among people, and had developed her own personality classifications.She was searching for a way to quantify her theory. Consistency of her theory with Jung's workgave Katherine, who had no formal training in psychology, the confidence she needed, and shebecame an exhaustive student of Jung’s work. Katherine’s daughter, Isabel, joined her as theyresearched the differences in people for the next 20 years.
In 1942, Isabel began to develop a series of questions to measure personalitydifferences. This became the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator®. After many years validating theinstrument, and testing its validity and reliability, in 1975 that MBTI® became available to awider group of professionals.
Today, MBTI® is one of the most widelyused tools in organizations because:
ο• It is a self-reporting and non-judging instrument.
ο• There is a tremendous amount of research behind it.
ο• It is an international instrument and is valid across cultures.
ο• It allows for opportunities to understand and to be understood by others.
ο• The theory underlines that all people have access to each of the different
preferences, but that each individual prefers one of each dichotomy.
ο• It concentrates on the strengths of each preference.
ο• The MBT® was developed by studying normal people in their day-to-day
lives, and it indicates normal rather than abnormal behaviors.
