Your type

Where you are strong

    Where you can trip yourself up

      How to work with you

        Forward this block to your manager or a colleague — it beats waiting for them to guess.

        Pick the type of a colleague, your manager or a direct report — we will show where sparks fly and how to agree.

        Add your colleagues’ types to see where the team tilts: what it has plenty of and what is missing entirely. You are already on the list.

        A note for HR. A type describes preferences, not ability and not future performance. Do not use it for hiring or promotion decisions: those call for competency assessment and work samples. A type is useful for something else — agreeing on how a person works best. This is a quick assessment on the four Myers-Briggs scales, not the official MBTI® questionnaire.

        How it works

        What the test shows

        The test picks up four preferences from the Myers-Briggs model (MBTI): where you get your energy, how you take in information, how you make decisions and how you organize your work. Together they make one of 16 personality types.

        The questions are about work: meetings, deadlines, feedback, disagreements with colleagues. So the result is about work too: where you are strong, where you can trip yourself up and how others can work with you.

        What the letters mean

        E / I
        Extraversion or introversion — you recharge around people or in quiet.
        S / N
        Facts or ideas — you rely on experience and detail or on patterns and possibilities.
        T / F
        Logic or people — you decide by criteria or by how it lands with people.
        J / P
        Plan or flexibility — you are calmer when it is settled or when options stay open.

        Questions about the test

        How long does the personality type test take?

        About three minutes: 20 questions with two answers each. No sign-up and no email needed.

        Is this the official MBTI test?

        No. It is a quick assessment on the same four scales of the Myers-Briggs model, with questions about work situations. The official MBTI® questionnaire is administered by certified practitioners.

        Can I use personality type in hiring?

        No. A type describes preferences, not ability and not future performance. Hiring and promotion decisions call for competency assessment and work samples. A type is useful for agreeing on how a person works best.

        Can my personality type change?

        Preferences are fairly stable, but behavior depends on the situation and the role. If a scale comes out almost even, you will act differently in different circumstances — the test shows that.

        How do I find out a colleague's or a team's type?

        Send colleagues the link to the test and ask them to share the result. Then add their types on the Team map tab to see which preferences the team has plenty of and which are missing entirely.

        What do I do with the result?

        Show the “How to work with you” block to your manager and colleagues, and use the “You and a colleague” tab to see where your habits differ from a specific person's and how to agree.
