The MBTI Team Assessment: Increase Team Performance With Myers-Briggs

What Is an MBTI Team Assessment?

An MBTI team assessment is a structured process that uses the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to analyze individual personality preferences and how they interact within a team environment.

This comprehensive evaluation goes far beyond standard personality tests by examining how different psychological types work together in professional settings. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator identifies preferences across four key dimensions: Extraversion/Introversion, Sensing/Intuition, Thinking/Feeling, and Judging/Perceiving. When applied at the team level, these insights reveal communication patterns, potential conflict areas, and natural strengths that might otherwise remain hidden. Our certified facilitators at Profile Assessments provide expert guidance throughout the assessment process, ensuring teams receive actionable insights rather than just theoretical knowledge.

Benefits of Myers-Briggs Teamwork 

The MBTI team assessment delivers concrete improvements in communication, conflict resolution, and overall team effectiveness for organizations.

When teams understand their Myers-Briggs personality distribution, they gain valuable perspective on why certain team dynamics exist. Our clients report significant improvements in several key areas: reduced interpersonal conflict (with issues resolved more constructively), more effective meetings where different communication styles are accommodated, improved project planning that leverages natural strengths, and higher team satisfaction as members feel better understood and valued. Rather than trying to change personalities, the assessment helps teams adapt their processes to work with their natural preferences, creating sustainable improvements in productivity.

How the Team Building Assessment Process Works

Our MBTI team building assessment follows a structured three-phase approach that ensures meaningful results and practical application.

The process begins with individual assessments where each team member completes the official Myers-Briggs Type Indicator questionnaire through our secure online platform. Our certified facilitators then compile the results into a comprehensive team profile that maps personality distributions and identifies key interaction patterns. The most valuable phase comes next: a guided workshop where team members explore their collective type dynamics through interactive exercises designed to bring the insights to life. These sessions highlight how different personalities approach problems, communicate information, make decisions, and structure their work, creating immediate "aha moments" that transform team interactions.

Personality-Based Collaboration With MBTI for Teams

Personality-based collaboration using MBTI principles helps teams leverage their natural diversity rather than fighting against it.

Every team contains a mixture of personalities, each with inherent strengths and potential blind spots. The MBTI for teams framework provides a nonjudgmental language for discussing these differences, turning what might have been sources of friction into strategic advantages. For example, a team might discover they have a strong representation of detail-oriented Sensing types but few big-picture Intuitive types, explaining why they excel at implementation but sometimes miss innovative opportunities. With this awareness, teams can deliberately incorporate different perspectives into their processes, leading to more balanced decision-making and comprehensive problem-solving.
