Benefits
A big reason why brilliant teams fail spectacularly is poor teamwork. On the other hand, people who learn to understand others at a deeper level and are able to empathise with others, are able to form excellent teams. High performing teams naturally generate better business results. Individuals in such teams also propagate the culture of cooperation and high performance when they join or work with other teams. MBTI provides a proven structure that helps people understand their own personalities and that of others thereby helping them work with each other. Apart from working with team members, it enables to to manage a variety of stakeholders such as clients, vendors, their own managers (upwards management) and their direct reportees (downward management).
