Personality type refers to the unique set of characteristics, behaviours, and thought patterns that shape how an individual perceives and interacts with the world. It influences how we think, feel, and respond to different situations, as well as how we relate to others. Personality type is shaped by a combination of genetic, environmental, and social factors and remains relatively consistent over time.

There are several models used to categorise personality types, including:

• The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI): Categorises personality into 16 types based on preferences in areas such as introversion vs. extraversion and thinking vs. feeling.
• The Enneagram: Identifies nine personality types based on core motivations, fears, and desires.

Understanding your personality type can provide insight into your strengths, challenges, and preferred ways of interacting with the world. It helps with self-awareness, improving communication, decision-making, and building stronger relationships by recognising differences in how people think and behave.
