Taking the MBTI assessment - how to take the assessment
I am very careful to explain to my clients how to take the MBTI assessment but people forget what I say and don’t always read my instruction list.
Just the other day I worked with somebody who didn’t fully read the key points I describe - the need to take the assessment as their "shoes off self", the person they can be when they are not trying to portray an image or to fit in with the requirements of their job or company.
As we discussed her results I got to understand how the person she is at home is very different to the person she has to be as a very senior manager at work. So she is going to take it again at the end of a weeks holiday when she is relaxed and no longer in work mode. I appreciate that it can be difficult to think of ourselves outside of work.
So if you are going to take the MBTI do you best to consider the person that you are when you can be you, its the best way to get the best out of the assessment.
