Does your MBTI type change?
I am often asked of our MBTI type will change.
The MBTI is closely aligned to the work of Carl Jung. Jung was clear that our personality type is set in childhood as it enables us to make sense of life and to help with decision making.
As we get older we become more aware of the postive aspects of the personality characteristics of the alternative to our preference - an Intuitive person can see the benefits of Sensing and vice versa. This can then mean that peoples scores change, bringing them closer to the mid range score.
Again Carl Jung talks of this, referring to this as good type development.
I see this as part of people become more wise as we get older and even better at appreciating differences!
