Portraits™ of Jung Type Behavior™
OKA is proud to present a new tool and training design to augment your use of type and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) assessment. While the MBTI® assessment highlights your preferences, the Portraits of Jung Type Behavior™ (JTB™) focus on behaviors: those that help you, those that are lacking and those that may at times be misapplied or overdone.
This self-assessment is divided into two halves, one dealing with type’s functions (Sensing, iNtuition, Thinking and Feeling) and one dealing with type’s attitudes (Extraversion, Introversion, Judging and Perceiving). It calls for the sorting and rank ordering of a number of behaviors in an effort to determine those that are most commonly used, those that are overdone and those in need of development.
The Portraits of Jung Type Behavior™ come as a self-contained 12-page packet that contains instructions and materials for two separate behavioral portraits and all the written material needed to interpret and apply the resulting portraits. The JTB™ Portraits are a perfect augment or follow-up to an MBTI® session, but they are also perfectly able to stand-alone as a tool or intervention.
Theoretical Basis
This tool draws its behavioral descriptions from Carl Jung’s Psychological Types – a cognitive model that focuses on our preferred ways of taking in data, making decisions, energizing and orienting to the outer world. Consistent with Elias Porter’s Relationship Awareness® Theory, this tool recognizes that behavior may be overdone or misapplied, leading to decreased personal effectiveness. Both type and Relationship Awareness Theory assert that motivational values and hard-wired cognitive preferences aside, behavior is a choice. This tool is designed to highlight the behavioral choices you tend to make—and hopefully give you more and better behavioral options.
