[quote=Anonymous]I’ll speak up in defense of Myers-Briggs. I found it very helpful, as someone else noted, for understanding how people are different than you and appreciating the value of those differences. For me, the biggest example is Judging vs. Perceiving. Generally, judgers want to make a decision, while perceivers want to take in more information and leave their options open. I am a nearly off the charts J. I find 95% of the time when someone in a professional setting rubs me the wrong way, they are wanting to push a decision to the next meeting, play something by ear, or something similar. In those cases, it’s helpful to me to think to myself “okay, they are probably a P. I should listen to what they are saying carefully, as often waiting IS the right move, but it’s not my instinct.”[/quote]
