…Using Your NON- dominant hand, copy the following sentence:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Just as we have preferences for left or right-handedness, we also have preferences for:
• Extraversion versus Introversion
• Sensing versus Intuition
• Thinking versus Feeling
• Judging versus Perceiving
Psychological Preferences
Where Do I Focus My Energy and Attention?
Extraversion• Focus energy and attention
OUTWARD• Are interested in world of
PEOPLE and THINGS• Extraverts use their DOMINANT
function in the outside world• Prefer to problem solve and
work in groups
Introversion• Focus their energy and attention
INWARD• Are interested in the inner world
of THOUGHT and REFLECTION• Introverts use their DOMINANT
function in their mind• Introversion is not shyness.
Shyness is fear of negative judgment. Introverts prefer less external stimulation
How do I Take in Information and Data?
Sensing• Seek facts• Use common sense• Use their 5 senses• In the moment
Asks: What is the lay of the land? What do we know?
INtuition• Imagines possibilities• Uses brainstorming• Assesses connections• Future
Asks: Is there a new way to do this? Can we give it a different twist?
Linear/”Give me the steps” Conceptual/”This is related to that”
The Way We Make Decisions
Thinking• Critiques and deduces• Uses logic• Identifies Consequences
Asks:Why should this be done? What makes sense?
Feeling• Involves everyone• Cultivates harmony• Indentifies the positives
Asks: How do I feel about this?Who will this affect?
Our Attitude Toward the External World
Judging• Want the world to be
organized and have order• Plan/Structure• Last minute rushing around
is stressful
Buzz words: Schedule, Routine, List
Perceiving• Want to go with the flow• Options/Angles• Last minute rushing around
is energizing
Buzz words: Change, Surprise,The Last Minute
Schedules cramp my style, man.Nothing beats a well-ordered day
The MBTI is not:
• A way to pigeonhole, prescribe or excuse behavior
• A complete description about human behavior. Many factors influence the human personality.
• A method to determine skill level, maturity or competencies as compared to others
Additional Key Points:
The MTBI is:
• An affirming way to understand self and others
• A way to identify natural cognitive strengths
• A way to value the constructive use of differences among people
• A way to strengthen relationships and improve communication
• A dynamic not a static description for patters of interaction, growth and maturity
