characteristics that capture the unique nature of a person. It combines a set of physical and mental characteristics that reflect how a person looks, thinks, feels and behaves. Personality is the sum total of ways in which an individual reacts and interacts with others. Personality type refers to the psychological classification of different types of individuals. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment is a psychometric questionnaire designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. Fundamental to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is the theory of psychological type as originally developed by Carl Jung. Jung proposed the existence of two dichotomous pairs of cognitive functions:

The "rational" (judging) functions: thinking and feeling The "irrational" (perceiving) functions: sensing and intuition

The 16 types are typically referred to by an abbreviation of four lettersthe initial letters of each of their four type preferences (except in the case of intuition, which uses the abbreviation N to distinguish it from Introversion). For instance:

ESTJ: extraversion (E), sensing (S), thinking (T), judgment (J) INFP: introversion (I), intuition (N), feeling (F), perception (P) And so on for all 16 possible type combinations.

Inputs regarding various types of personalities and their dominating traits with strengths and areas of improvements were disseminated to us as a part of curriculum of Term-I of Executive-PGDM Program. Further, a psychometric test was also conducted in the class for every participant to arrive at his/her personality type. This group assignment endeavors to understand and analyze the personality types of the group members for leveraging the inputs gained for enhancement of group synergy and dynamics on one hand and individual personality betterment on the other. The order followed in the following text is detailed analysis of the personality types of each member followed by arriving at his strengths, areas of improvement and individual developmental needs. Subsequently, the strategy for gainful and efficient utilization of the team members for enhancement of group synergy and dynamics in light of his personality type has also been explored. The conclusion offers a consolidated picture of the group with regard to the personality types and analysis thereof.
