I took both the full and short versions when I worked for the Ministry of Forests as part of a team building seminar. It is quite comprehensive and scientific, and their classification scheme seems to parallel my own personality very closely. I think the key is complete and absolute honesty. I took the test again, and changed just two of my answers and got a completely different result. I’m sure though for some people it just doesn’t guage their personality very well.

But it is just a test…often used by companies and government ministries as a tool to quantify personalities in an effort to increase employee awareness of different types of people they may encounter in the work place. After I took the test at the MOF we explored different strategies that work for each type of personality. The biggest benefit though, was that it provided a window (however generalized) into the personalities of my co-workers. You get to know people in you work place quite well after taking this test together.
