> I agree with Phil. There might be some personal benefit from pondering your personality type or preferences. But I've never come across an organization that used something like Myers-Briggs to influence promotion decisions or to 'assemble teams with complementary personality types' or anything like that. Mostly they just pay for the testing and then no-one ever speaks of it again.
