Team Building using the Myers Briggs Type IndicatorTM
The MBTI questionnaire is useful for self and group understanding. Based on the results, teams can understand their strengths and
development needs and look for how to improve the way they work. With skilful facilitation the team can understand possible biases and begin to
appreciate the importance of valuing differences of approach and perspective.
You can also use the FIRO-B for team
building and it is an excellent addition to the MBTI. It helps you to understand likely sources of tension, your leadership style, how to improve
decision making, and how to improve communication and to deal with conflict.

Introversion; 2 sensing and 2 Intuition. There is then a team similarity index to show degrees of similarity and how to use this data to be more
effective. You can read about the strengths and weaknesses of your particular team profile. A separate section is then included so each member of
the team can see how their strengths relate to the team profile. Details are provided on how the team, as a while, are likely to solve problems.
For each individual you can see how your approach is similar or different to the group. Areas of conflict is addressed along with suggestions for
how to improve team effectives and individual effectiveness.
