Self-awareness is key to navigating the world with an increased level of success and employers will look for you to demonstrate this.  This is why job interviewers will ask you what you consider to be your strengths, your weaknesses, what happens when you’re stressed, or how you might behave in certain situations. If you can demonstrate a high level of self-awareness, you will come across as someone with potential and emotional intelligence whilst still acknowledging what you have to learn.  And yet articulating this can sometimes be a challenge. 

That's where the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) comes to hand: it's a psychometric test that can help with all of these areas.  Within a 3 hour workshop, we will go through Jungian psychology to help you understand who you are and why you take some actions over others. This also leads to you understanding others too.  It’s also a really fun activity! 

After completing a questionnaire, you will leave with a full personality profile and you will understand yourself a whole lot more!  This can really help you to present yourself on your CV or at interview in your best light.
