德國086－MBTI性向測驗
29Oct04 MBTI personality test
每週五是GISMA的Forum Day。在第一個module時我們曾經參觀了德國最大的洗衣機公司Miele，學校並邀請McKinsey的顧問演講「IT complexity」、KPMG的會計師闡述GAAP與IASB的不同，另有一週是Culture difference的活動及經驗分享。這星期則幫我們做知名的MBTI性向測驗。
（為何說「知名的」呢？因為我們在上學期的組織行為教科書中有讀到。MBTI全名是Myers-Briggs Type Indicator，是判斷分析性向的其中一種方法。我想既然它能出現在教科書上，那表示它必定享有某種程度的盛名吧。）
學校在星期一叫大家填了一份長達27頁共166題的問卷，問題都是二選一，例如 ：Do you tend to have a) deep friendship with very few people, or b) broad friendship with many different people？大約都是這樣沒有對錯的題目。填完後寄給MBTI的專屬機構分析結果，然後今天他們帶了報告來給我們，並告訴我們這些結果分別代表什麼。
講者一開始叫大家用慣用的手寫自己名字，再用不慣用的手寫一次，以此例子說明這個測驗只是「偏好」，而非絕對；然後他說明了MBTI的四個面向（dimension）。
一是where do you prefer to focus your attention（通常將注意力集中在哪），分為Extraversion（E：外向）及Introversion（I：內向）；
二是what kind of information do you prefer to pay attention to（通常注意到什麼樣的資訊），分為Sensing（S：知覺，比較偏向具體、仔細的描述）及Intuition（N：直覺，比較偏向抽象的概念）；
三是how do you prefer to make decision（通常如何做決定），分為Thinking（T：思考）及Feeling（F：感覺）；
四是which lifestyle do you prefer（喜歡哪種生活，包括工作方式），分為Judging（J：判斷，就是有規律並按照計劃進行）及Perceiving（P：察覺，較有彈性而沒有一定時間表、或是把事情堆到最後一刻才做）。
前三個項目我顯然是屬於I、S、F，這不用看報告便知。最後一項我自己遲遲無法決定，因為像工作及作業我喜歡先安排好、但旅遊事這種隨興就好。不過報告結果顯示是P，後來想想也對，好像很多該做的事即使腦中先規劃好時間表，也不一定會去實際執行。
雖然報告對我的幫助不算太大（我自認為很了解我自己啦），但是測驗結果對我個性的敘述實在貼切到不行。並且即使我很了解自己我也無法完整說明，所以大家來看一下吧：
ISFP people typically care deeply about what they do, more likely showing this through deeds than words. They are loyal to the people, ideals, and organizations they care about. They have a great deal of warmth, although they do not always display it.
ISFP people tend to be tolerant, open-minded, and adaptable, taking things as they come. However, when something important to them is threatened, they do not give in. Since they often do not reveal their convictions, others may be surprised by their reactions.
They have little need to impress or dominate others. Since ISFP people believe that what they do speaks for itself, they do not attract much attention. Thus others may overlook their contributions, leading ISFP people to feel under-appreciated and less adequate than they really are.
They care about having people get along and may be the glue that holds things together. In addition, they pay attention to nature and animals and are keen observers of what is around them.
ISFP people are likely to be most satisfied in a work environment that values what they care about and allows them to adapt to the moment. People can count on them to notice what needs to be done and proceed simply without fuss.
最後講者還建議，知道自己的面向之後，應該要順從著自己的偏好去做事，才能把事情做得最好，而不需要求自己去變成另一種。這番話深得我心。
