GTF Corporation (Global Taskforce), which provides support for corporate revitalization and restructuring of listed companies and the execution of innovation strategies in the global market, has launched a free "MBTI x Thinking Tendencies" diagnosis on July 7th through its online learning platform "GTF Thinking Academy." This platform is being prepared as an educational initiative for future leaders.
"GTF Thinking Academy," specializing in developing thinking skills to accelerate AI utilization, is currently recruiting founding members for its pre-early access version. The "MBTI x Thinking Diagnosis (Free)," released ahead of the early access version (alpha version) launch in August, offers results that are shared globally as a common language. This time, in addition to a simplified MBTI diagnosis, we are providing a double diagnosis that assesses thinking habits in six areas by linking it with Facione's 6 skills, the world standard for critical thinking.
GTF Thinking Academy |. Free MBTI x Thinking Tendencies Diagnosis
MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) is a self-report personality inventory with 4 axes and 16 classifications, developed from Jung's typology. While its validity as a scientific measurement tool has limitations (※Note 1), it has become a widely used method as a dialogue tool for self-understanding and understanding others.
GTF's MBTI x Thinking Type Diagnosis not only offers simplified diagnoses of MBTI and critical thinking but also provides explanations and compatibility assessments that can be considered through their combination. This free diagnosis requires no registration, takes just 30 seconds, and provides immediate results. Please take this opportunity to try it.
(※Note 1) About MBTI: MBTI, which categorizes personalities into 16 types, is widely used and recognized for its practical value as a "vocabulary and dialogue tool for self-understanding." However, its evaluation as a "scientifically valid personality diagnostic tool" has been negatively converged by multiple studies at Evidence Level II, with significant limitations particularly in predictive validity, type theory structure, and the reliability of the T/F axis. Compared to the Big Five, it is significantly inferior in the depth of its scientific evidence. Nevertheless, we have utilized MBTI as an introductory diagnosis, believing it has significance in the following two aspects:
A | Self-Understanding: Zero cost for self-disclosure and rapid comprehension
Learning begins from a known type, eliminating the need for new assessments. Phrases like "S types need to consciously train hypothesis generation" are more convincing and directly linked to learning motivation than "reasoning is weak."
B | Understanding Others: Ability to point out differences in thinking patterns
The four-letter code allows for hypothetical conversations such as, "Your J tendency might be causing premature convergence of reasoning." The Big Five lacks this functionality.
【Established by MBTI (Level II)】
・Internal consistency of the 4 axes is generally good (0.85 to 0.92)
・Test-retest reliability for E/I, S/N, and J/P exceeds the standard value (around .75)
・Partial convergence with Big Five (E/I ↔ Extraversion, S/N ↔ Openness) has been empirically demonstrated
【Empirically Denied (Level II)】
・Bimodality of types (the premise that people naturally fall into 16 types)
・Type dynamics (hierarchy of dominant and auxiliary functions)
・Predictive validity for performance and job outcomes
【Insufficient Empirical Support (Level III-V)】
・Test-retest reliability of the T/F axis (.61: below standard value: meaning the same person taking the test twice may easily switch between a T judgment (logic-focused) and an F judgment (values/empathy-focused))
・Uniqueness of the 16 type divisions
・Validity as an operationalization of Jungian theory

Subscriptions for the Engine alone or the GTF Thinking Academy Pack will be doubled for the entire membership period, and diagnoses (one-time purchase) will receive a special increased amount.

Founding monitors can also register at the Early Bird Morning Study Exchange Meeting (next session tomorrow, June 26th, from 7:30 AM online and in-person hybrid).
Furthermore, priority participation rights for feedback on the English version (releasing simultaneously in October) will be granted.
Additional Benefit: Early access to the developmental project management tool "Ikusei PMO" also planned
In the pre-early access version, trial use of "Ikusei PMO," a developmental project management function also under development, is scheduled to become available from July 15th.
Traditional project management tools are often cumbersome, leading to busyness just by entering tasks. This tool is expected to include intuitive operation for immediate start after listening to explanations, guidance towards decision-making triggered by point checks and crisis flags, and AI thinking engine support for business and cognitive decision-making.
