CJ - Meyers-Briggs Profile

The KT Inventory is based on Jungian personality types first modelled by the Meyers-Briggs Personality Profile which is a "professional test and only to be administered by qualified testers" instrument. More information on the MB types and KT test can be found in "Please Understand Me, Character & Temperament Types" by David Keirsey and Marilyn Bates, ISBN 0-9606954-0-0

Having done the Meyers-Briggs in 1978 and on comparing results then with now (Keirsey-Temperament) - surprise, surprise - there is little change. I blame it all on my mother! At face value the results of the Keirsey test offer a fair picture of me - with room for discussion and prevarication. Such quizzical reflection illustrates the value of doing the test.

Try the self-administered questionnaire yourself. You may find it useful in stimulating a conversation with yourself and others. It may offer insights for life and career planning. Let your friends read the results and elicit comment from them. What do they think?

So - allegedly - I am an ENTP type.

  • Extroverted -- "re-charge" by interaction with others.
  • iNtuitive -- focus on important items, ignore irrelevant details.
  • Thinking -- logical, rule based approach.
  • Perceptive -- want to understand the issue.
