Script
- Many psychologists have studied the idea to match personalities and occupations. Logically, artists tend to be more disruptive personalities than accountants. Vice versa, accountants tend to be more conforming personalities than artists.
- The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) was originally developed to identify students' aptitudes toward various professions. This personality test taps four characteristics and classifies people into one of 16 personality types.
- Every characteristic contributes one letter from the following pairs:
- Extraversion (E) or Intraversion (I) depending on onward or inward focus,
- Sensing (S) or Intuition (N) depending on preference in taking in information,
- Thinking (T) or Feeling (F) depending on preference in making decisions,
- Judging (J) or Perceiving (P) depending on preference in living outer life.
- For instance, INFP would stand for an intuitive, feeling, perceiving introvert.
- Although many companies collect MBTI data, this test has little to no effect in the workspace. A successful sport team, for instance, should be a mosaic of personalities regardless of the fact that all of them would share the same occupation.
- The model of American psychologist John Holland gained some popularity among career counselors. John Holland matched two personality dimensions, disruptive versus conforming and individual versus collective, with six groups of occupations. His groups are realistic, artistic, realistic, social, enterprising, realistic,
This model is called the Holland Occupational Themes
