MBTI – Discover personality differences and strengthen your team

It’s not only helpful to know your own personality traits, but also those of others.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) is the most widely used personality assessment tool in the world.

It offers a practical and positive way to highlight individual differences, preferences, and strengths within your team—and to make better use of them. With the MBTI, you gain a framework for understanding behaviour, improving communication, and strengthening collaboration.
BrainTrain is happy to help you discover, understand and utilise personality differences within your organisation.

What is MBTI?
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® was developed by Katharine Cook Briggs and Isabel Briggs Myers.
The model maps the differences between personality types in a positive and appreciative way.
  • provides insight into your personality preferences and those of others;
  • offers a framework for better understanding human interactions;
  • helps resolve collaboration and communication issues;
  • forms a strong basis for lifelong personal and professional development.
    • The two steps of MBTI

    MBTI Step I – insight into your personality type

    In the first step, you determine your personality type and that of your team members. You discover your preferred style of thinking, working and communicating, and how it relates to others.
    The MBTI Step I classification distinguishes 16 personality types, based on four dimensions    :
  • Extraversion (E) – Introversion (I)
    Where do you get your energy from?
  • Sensing (S) – Intuition (N)
    What kind of information do you pay attention to?
  • Thinking (T) – Feeling (F)
    How do you make decisions?
  • Judging (J) – Perceiving (P)
    How do you interact with the world around you?
    • MBTI Step I is ideal for individual development, teamwork and leadership, and helps to turn differences into collaboration.

    MBTI Step II – refined insight into your behavior and development

    The second step builds on the four dimensions of Step I.
    MBTI Step II examines five additional personality traits and provides an in-depth profile and development plan.

    The result:
  • a comprehensive personality report;
  • insight into your strengths and growth potential;
  • concrete development actions that can be used in coaching, team building and leadership.
    • This step is ideal for professionals and teams who want to refine, deepen and embed their collaboration.

    Participants develop a different approach to communication in the broadest sense of the word, even when situations become difficult or tense. They experience greater calm, increased self-confidence, and a clearer understanding of how to respond rather than simply react. The difference lies in acting consciously: not being at the mercy of the situation or the conversation, but engaging with it deliberately and with curiosity.
    The focus is on individual behaviour change, leading to a noticeable improvement in interactions with colleagues, team members, and clients. Many participants notice the difference during the training itself, with those new behaviours becoming firmly embedded through continued practice in the workplace.
    Yes. The content, learning methods, language, and case studies are fully tailored to your organisation and its specific context. Where needed, I take the time to immerse myself in your sector, your roles, or even your workplace. Context shapes how people communicate, collaborate, and make decisions—and that is exactly what shapes the design of every training programme.
    Our training programmes are designed for anyone who works with people and is willing to reflect on their own behaviour. They are less effective when participants attend only because they are required to and have little or no willingness to engage. We address this openly from the outset.
    Applying new learning in the workplace is central to our approach. Throughout the training, we combine self-awareness with practical exercises based on real-life situations, enabling participants to build confidence through successful experiences. Where appropriate, we provide follow-up support for both participants and the client, identifying together any organisational or contextual barriers that may hinder the transfer of learning into daily practice.
    Our training programmes always start from the participants’ own day-to-day reality. We work with their real-life situations, combining reflection, practical exercises, and dialogue. New insights are introduced when they add value—not through classroom-style teaching or PowerPoint-led presentations.
    Working with resistance is one of our core strengths. We create a safe and neutral environment, acknowledge what is happening, and explore the needs and concerns underlying the resistance. We never force change. Instead, we create the conditions in which participants can move forward at their own pace and take ownership of their learning.
    We always work within the time available. There is no fixed format: every programme is tailored to your needs, organisational context, and operational demands. Where it adds value, we combine face-to-face sessions with preparation, digital learning, or phased learning journeys to make the best use of everyone’s time.
    Many training programmes focus on skills and techniques. We go a step further by addressing the beliefs, fears, and automatic patterns that shape behaviour. By combining practical skills with deeper behavioural insight, we help people create lasting behaviour change that carries over into their day-to-day work.
    We measure impact through observable changes in behaviour. Throughout the programme, we use participant and client feedback, structured reflection, and behavioural observations to monitor progress. For us, success is not measured by how much participants enjoyed the training, but by the extent to which new behaviours are applied and sustained in the workplace.
    Follow-up is always tailored to the client’s needs. This may include reviewing how learning is being applied in the workplace, exploring specific themes in greater depth, or providing individual coaching. Together, we determine what will add the greatest value within your organisational context.
    We’ll be happy to explore your context, challenges, and objectives with you.
