Abstract

This article reports results of a student-team intervention that used team members' personality assessments on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and the Five-Factor Model to enhance the team development process and engender an appreciation of the effect of different personalities on team functioning and performance. The majority of participants reported that knowledge of team members' personality types was helpful in understanding team member behavior and was used in managing team dynamics. Those teams that used extreme division of labor were more likely to respond that the personality-based intervention was not helpful in managing team dynamics.
