The Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicator Workshop

What type of leader are you? How do you communicate in teams? What are your strengths? How can you work with different personalities at work? Find out by taking the Myers Briggs Personality Type Indicator Assessment, the most widely used personality assessment in the world. Myers Briggs is used by the federal government, most top Fortune 100 companies and many non-profit organizations.

To register for a workshop at the RAF, you must take the Myers Briggs Assessment at the Concierge Desk. The assessment is available weekdays until 11pm through Wednesday, July 11th.

Assessments take about 20 minutes and you will receive your results at the workshop you indicate on the answer sheet.
