Video Summary

The AACP Leadership Institute offers a course centered around the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), guided by coaches Lothi Mulder and Catherine Stekenas. This optional course aims to enhance personal and professional development by understanding personality differences. MBTI is based on the theory of psychological types by Carl Jung and is structured around four preference pairs: introversion/extroversion, sensing/intuition, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving. These preferences suggest different ways individuals derive energy, process information, make decisions, and approach the outside world.<br /><br />The course includes an assessment to help participants discover their personality type, facilitating better self-awareness and understanding of team dynamics. This can lead to improved communication and effectiveness in varied environments, as MBTI is widely used across educational, healthcare, business, and governmental sectors. The assessment does not measure skills but offers insights into innate preferences, which can be leveraged to enhance leadership skills and working relationships. Participants are encouraged to integrate their type insights to better navigate workplace culture, manage time, and cope with stress, promoting thoughtful engagement with diverse perspectives.
