More understanding in everyday work

Make different perspectives easier to work with.

One colleague wants time to reflect. Another thinks aloud. Some ask for the detail; others want the big picture first. A Thrill MBTI workshop creates a shared language for exploring these differences, then gives people opportunities to practise adapting.

COMMUNICATION

Get the message across

Explore how you prepare, listen, ask questions and share information. Practise giving colleagues the context and clarity they need.

COLLABORATION

Work through differences

Notice how people approach decisions and planning. Use shared tasks to discuss assumptions, negotiate expectations and agree ways of working.

LEADERSHIP

Lead with greater awareness

Reflect on your impact, invite different perspectives and adapt feedback. Connect personal insight with specific leadership behaviours to practise.

Thrill works with HR, L&D, People & Culture teams, managers and government organisers to define the brief. Your program can support a new team, a leadership retreat, cross-department collaboration or an existing staff development plan.

A starting point for conversation

What is the MBTI assessment?

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® explores personality preferences across four pairs. Their combinations describe 16 types. Your certified practitioner helps you interpret your results and explore your best-fit type through feedback and reflection.

E / I

Extraversion / Introversion
Where you tend to direct attention and draw energy.

S / N

Sensing / Intuition
How you tend to take in information.

T / F

Thinking / Feeling
What you tend to emphasise when making decisions.

J / P

Judging / Perceiving
How you tend to approach the outside world.

Preferences do not measure competence. People can use both sides of each pair and adapt their behaviour. Thrill uses type as a prompt for curiosity and development, with room for participants to question and discuss their results.

Choose the depth that fits your purpose

Five ways to structure your Thrill MBTI program

Start with personal insight, build a shared team language or extend the learning into leadership and follow-up coaching. These program structures are tailored in your proposal; you do not need to complete every level.

Thrill program levels describe the delivery scope. They are separate from MBTI Step I™ and Step II™ assessment versions and do not confer practitioner certification. Timings below are planning guides, with assessment preparation arranged separately.

THRILL LEVEL 01

Individual Insight

For a manager, staff member or coaching client.

Suggested shape: assessment preparation plus a 60–90 minute feedback session.

  • Official MBTI assessment and agreed individual report.
  • Certified interpretation and exploration of best-fit type.
  • Discussion of one workplace development priority.
  • Personal actions to practise.

A clear starting point for self-awareness.

THRILL LEVEL 02

Team Foundations

For colleagues building a shared understanding.

Suggested shape: a half-day workshop.

  • Assessment and interpretive feedback arrangements for new participants.
  • Introduction to preferences and respectful discussion.
  • Short communication exercises and team reflection.
  • Practical working agreements.

A shared language for everyday collaboration.

THRILL LEVEL 03

Team in Action

For teams wanting insight plus practical application.

Suggested shape: a full day or two linked sessions.

  • Team Foundations content matched to your group.
  • Facilitated experiential challenges and observation.
  • Debriefs linked to communication, planning and decisions.
  • Team action plan and agreed review measures.

Put the learning into practice together.

THRILL LEVEL 04

Leadership Application

For managers and established or emerging leaders.

Suggested shape: a focused workshop with optional coaching.

  • Review existing MBTI understanding or scope new assessments.
  • Workplace scenarios involving feedback, delegation and change.
  • Practice adapting communication and inviting challenge.
  • Individual leadership commitments and team agreements.

Apply insight to the responsibilities of leading people.

THRILL LEVEL 05

Development Partnership

For an ongoing team or leadership development plan.

Suggested shape: a tailored series over an agreed period.

  • An agreed assessment and workshop starting point.
  • Further practice sessions linked to workplace priorities.
  • Individual or group coaching as scoped.
  • Follow-up review of agreed actions and next steps.

Build repeated practice into the way your team works.

NEED HELP CHOOSING?

Start with the situation

Tell us what is happening in your team and what you want to change. We’ll recommend the depth of assessment, facilitation and practice to suit your people, available time and budget. Brief the Thrill team →

What will your quote include?

Your proposal specifies the assessment version, report, feedback format, session duration, facilitator arrangements, materials and follow-up. Travel, venue hire, catering and additional experiences are included only where quoted. Existing profiles are reviewed for suitability before deciding whether reassessment is needed.

MBTI Step I or Step II: what is the difference?

Step I provides a starting point for exploring the four preference pairs and best-fit type. Step II adds more detailed facets within those preferences. Ask about Global Step I for your program. If you want the additional detail of Step II, Thrill will confirm a suitably qualified practitioner and available assessment options before quoting. Choosing a higher Thrill program level does not automatically change the assessment.

Prepare → Understand → Practise → Apply

Insight is the beginning. Experience makes it useful.

01 · PREPARE

Agree the purpose

Discuss the team’s context, access needs and expectations with your facilitator. Explain the process to participants and agree how information will be handled.

02 · UNDERSTAND

Assessment & feedback

Where included, participants complete the official questionnaire before the session. Certified feedback supports reflection and best-fit exploration, with questions welcomed.

03 · PRACTISE

Try a shared challenge

Take part in tasks chosen for your objectives. Notice how information is shared, assumptions form and decisions are made. The activity gives the group a common experience to discuss.

04 · APPLY

Make workplace commitments

Debrief observations without assigning behaviour to a type label. Agree practical changes to trial in meetings, handovers, feedback or shared projects.

The experience can be delivered as a focused workshop, linked modules or a broader retreat. We choose the activity to serve the learning objective and the participants.

Thrill staff communication workshop participants with a collaborative artwork

Learning you can see and discuss

Experiential MBTI team building

A shared construction or Project Pipelines task can highlight instructions, dependencies and coordination. A collaborative artwork can open a discussion about individual contributions and the shared vision.

A problem-solving scenario can invite people to gather evidence, consider alternatives and make a decision together. For an offsite, an appropriately scoped outdoor activity can provide another setting for observation and reflection.

Thrill facilitates the briefing, activity and debrief as one learning sequence. Success is not simply finishing the challenge: it is recognising a useful behaviour and deciding how to apply it at work.

Managers · Emerging leaders · High-potential development

Develop leadership through awareness and practice.

For people already selected for a development program, MBTI can provide a starting point for coaching conversations about preferences and interpersonal impact. Leadership capability is developed through practice, feedback and experience.

LISTEN

Invite a wider range of views

Practise asking for detail and alternatives, making space for reflection and checking understanding before a decision.

ADAPT

Make feedback more useful

Explore how to communicate expectations clearly, understand the other person’s perspective and agree specific actions.

LEAD

Respond thoughtfully to change

Use scenarios to consider how you explain change, invite questions, handle disagreement and support colleagues through uncertainty.

MBTI does not identify high-potential employees or determine who should lead. Recruitment, promotion and performance decisions need job-relevant evidence. These workshops support development rather than selection.

A respectful foundation

Use personality insights thoughtfully.

Assessment participation is voluntary. Results are confidential, and sharing arrangements are agreed with participants. Team discussion should make room for differing views and avoid assumptions about what a person can do.

MBTI supports development conversations; it is not a clinical diagnosis, a measure of intelligence or a hiring tool. A workshop also does not replace the appropriate response to bullying, grievances or other workplace concerns.

Read the Myers & Briggs Foundation’s ethical-use guidance.

Your workplace, conference or retreat

MBTI workshops across Australia, in person and online

Thrill can scope delivery at your office, hired training room or conference venue, including Sydney, the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Canberra, Hunter Valley and other locations by arrangement. Online workshops offer another option for distributed teams and individual feedback.

We plan the room or online format around the learning: space to talk, suitable breakout arrangements, practical materials and sufficient time for reflection. Let us know about access needs, group size and existing assessment experience.

CORPORATE TEAMS

Cross-functional collaboration

Bring technical, commercial and operational colleagues together around communication and shared work.

GOVERNMENT & COUNCILS

Practical staff development

Connect your workshop with the department’s learning objectives, procurement brief and agreed participant information arrangements.

HR & L&D

A program you can review

Choose a small number of observable goals before delivery: clearer handovers, more inclusive meeting participation or better follow-through on team agreements.

Make the follow-through visible.

Ask participants what they will try, agree a review point and discuss what changed. Participant feedback, manager observations and progress on team commitments provide useful evidence. These checks inform the next step; they do not prove that MBTI alone caused a business result.

Questions before you book

MBTI workshop FAQs

Are these official MBTI assessments or an online personality quiz?

When assessment is included, Thrill scopes the official MBTI instrument, an agreed report and feedback with a certified practitioner. A generic online quiz is not a substitute for that process.

Are the five Thrill levels MBTI certification courses?

No. The levels describe different ways to structure individual and team development. They do not qualify participants to administer MBTI. Practitioner certification is a separate process.

Do all participants need a new assessment?

Not necessarily. Tell us about previous MBTI assessments and feedback. Your practitioner will review their suitability for the workshop and advise whether a new assessment is appropriate.

Can a team complete MBTI training online?

Yes. Thrill offers online facilitation and individual feedback options. The session format, breakout activities and materials are scoped around the group and learning objectives.

Can MBTI help with communication and disagreement?

It can provide a shared language for discussing differences and practising communication. Thrill connects that discussion with practical tasks and workplace examples. Serious workplace disputes require the appropriate organisational process.

Can we use MBTI to identify our best managers or high-potential staff?

No. MBTI describes preferences, not ability or potential. It can support the development of managers and emerging leaders, but should not be used for hiring, promotion or selection decisions.

How long does a workshop take?

A team introduction may be scoped as a half day, with fuller experiential learning across a day or linked sessions. Individual feedback and ongoing coaching have different formats. Preparation and any assessment are scheduled separately.

What does an MBTI workshop cost?

Price depends on assessment and report requirements, participant numbers, facilitation, duration, travel and follow-up. Your proposal confirms inclusions and any optional costs. Contact Thrill with your brief for a tailored quote.
