Type Academy

Mission:

“My mission is to make the application of Whole Type knowledge accessible to everyone. The Mission of The Type Academy is to support the in-depth practical application of Whole Type (as assessed by MBTI®) knowledge by providing resources, information and consulting services.”

What is Whole Type?

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) is the world’s most widely used assessment tool and fosters individual self-awareness and greater interpersonal understanding by the description of four sets of preferences:

• Extraverting and Introverting
• Sensing and iNtuition
• Thinking and Feeling
• Judging and Perceiving

For example E, S, T, J.

“Whole Type is a methodology where multiple complementary models are integrated with the four-letter type code (E/I, S/N, T/F and J/P) to provide more in-depth insight into natural preferenmces and potential behavours.” – Susan Nash.

These complementary lenses are:

• Cognitive Processes originating from Jung’’s Theory of Psychological Type.
• Temperament: a separate yet complementary theory to type described by David Keirsey.
• Interaction Styles: a separate yet complementary theory articulated by Linda Berens.
