PURPOSE
To assess your personality type using the Jung-Myers-Briggs typology test and to evaluate how well the description of your personality type fits you.
Sometimes understanding differences in employees' personalities helps managers understand how to motivate them. Find out about your personality by going to the Human Metrics website (www.humanmetrics.com) and take the Jung Typology Test (based on Carl Jung's and Isabel Myers-Briggs's approaches to typology). (Disclaimer: The test, like all other personality tests, is only a rough and preliminary indicator of personality.)
1. After you identify your personality type, read the corresponding personality portrait. How well or how poorly does the identified personality type fit?
2. Sometimes a personality test does not accurately identify your personality, but it may give you a place to start looking for a portrait that fits. After you have read the portraits on the website, ask a good friend or relative which one best describes you.
