Using the MBTI to Enhance Communication by Krysty Wideen

I am about to attend a certification workshop for the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), so it’s on my mind.

An area that the MBTI has helped me in during the last year and a half is in communicating effectively with others. An example I often use is how a former colleague of mine, Mike , and I managed to communicate so effectively over the year and a half that we worked together.

In this post, I would like to share a few of the thoughts that ran through my head on the way home, and invite others to join in the conversation!
