MBTI Team Quest

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) is the world's most widely used personality inventory. Quixote’s MBTI Team Quest helps you to discover and leverage the various ways your people make decisions, strategize and access information, using this organizational standard. Team members begin to recognize the strengths that other types bring to the team, and the power that comes from multiple types working together.

About the MBTI

The MBTI identifies our individual preferences for processing information, and determines how we prefer to use perception and judgment. The inventory provides a way to separate what we truly prefer to do from what we are asked or required to do.

There are no right or wrong responses on the MBTI – only differences. This means you can use the results to understand yourself and others, without any biases or preconceptions. MBTI provides critical insights into core aspects of how we make decisions, strategize, and use and access information.

The use of this tool moves beyond awareness and "tolerance" of differences, and focuses on using those differences -- to gain diversity in discussion, efficiency and effectiveness in actions, and result in more complete decisions and strategies.

Practical, Applicable, Energetic, Fun

At Quixote, we know how important it is for any new training knowledge to be practical and applicable. That’s why we put such great emphasis on immediate and realistic application. Participants leave with a plan in place for employing their new skills in the coming week and beyond.

We also know that people respond best to presentations that are energetic and interactive and fun. There is always laughter in these sessions. And the unique methodologies we employ definitely help – we’ve used the modalities of chocolate and even wine pairing to explore the preferences of the different types.

Lasting Impact

Participants walk away from our sessions with practical tools that can be immediately applied to their individual work situations, as well as a vision of the powerful productivity possible in a team that recognizes and leverages all team members’ strengths.
