The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is the most widely used personality inventory in the world, and understanding characteristics unique to each personality type, provides insight on how they influence an individual?s way of communicating and interacting with others. In this important new addition to the best-selling Psychology at Work series, Rowan Bayne applies MBTI perspectives to an extensive range of areas of work psychology such as recruitment and selection, communication, stress management, counselling, training and leading.
