Isabel Briggs Myers Livres

THE BELOVED CLASSIC FOR UNDERSTANDING PERSONALITY TYPE. Like a thumbprint, personality type provides an instant snapshot of a person's uniqueness. Drawing on concepts originated by Carl Jung, this book distinguishes four categories of personality styles and shows how these qualities determine the way you perceive the world and come to conclusions about what you've seen. It then explains what they mean for your success in school, at a job, in a career and in your personal relationships. For more than 60 years, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) tool has been the most widely used instrument in the world for determining personality type, and for more than 25 years, Gifts Differing has been the preeminent source for understanding it.

Broaden your understanding of personality type with the Introduction to Type series from CCP. These popular guides help you integrate type theory concepts into both your personal and professional lives.Understanding workplace preferences, managing stress, reducing conflict, searching for suitable careers, and improving team effectiveness are just a few of the many type-related applications you can explore using the MBTI booklets.

One consequence of the popularity of the MBTI is that it has become increasingly detached from psychological type theory - often to the detriment of the individuals whom it is intended to benefit. Reconnecting the MBTI to type theory has critical practical implications and applications. In this regard, the overall goal of this edition is identical to that of the two editons that preceded it, and indeed to that of the Indicator itself: to make the theory of psychological types described by Jung understandable and useful in people's lives.
