16 Personalities

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a questionnaire that assesses elements of your personality and character through an understanding of your values, beliefs, and judgements.

It looks at personality traits through lenses of extraversion, intuition, thoughts and feelings, and perception, seeing them on a sliding scale that can fluctuate with age, experience and growth.

Remember!

Remember!

There's always room to better ourselves, so don't ever feel disheartened by your results because you may find that your personality type changes as you grow and change!

How do I find my personality type?

Your questionnaire responses will determine whether you fit under one of the four personality categories - Analysts, Diplomats, Sentinels, or Explorers, and what type of person you are within this category.

So, let's break them down and you can identify your personality type, having done the questionnaire yourself!

Analysts

Analysts: Intuitive and Thinking (NT) Type

Analysts are logical and rational thinkers. 

They value their independence and show great determination to succeed. Sometimes, their friendships and relationships can suffer due to their headstrong personality and strategic thinking. However, they show open-mindedness and and intuition, which strengthens their ability to think outside of the box.

Diplomats

Diplomats: Intuitive and Feeling (NF) Type

Diplomats are empathetic and compassionate.

They enjoy being supportive and holding space for other people. They are excellent team players, keeping the peace and working with others towards a shared goal. Diplomats, however, often struggle to make decisions that impact others.

Sentinels

Sentinels: Sensing and Judging (SJ) Type

Sentinels are great team players, and they work hard in everything they do. 

They create stable and organised environments, enabling them to work through tasks in a logical manner. They embrace challenge but they can be stubborn, and may struggle to see other points of view. 

Explorers

Explorers: Sensing and Perceiving (S) Type

Explorers are impulsive, yet practical. 

They are adaptive, self reliant, and they can think on their feet. They are not afraid to take risks but sometimes this can result in foolish behaviour. However, at the heart of it all, Explorers know how to effectively balance work and play, and they're not afraid to have fun!
