WhatType? Is a site where you can learn your Myers-Briggs type, learn the Myers-Briggs types of celebrities or learn the skill of Myers-Briggs typing.
My name is Scott James and this is the product of my obsession.
As a kid, I felt like an outcast. When I learned that Myers-Briggs could help me to understand and relate to my family and other people in my life, I dove in deeply, learning everything I could.
In 2012 I began a 6 month training and certification program with Camronn Huff and Antonia Dodge, who founded a company called Personality Hacker and were pioneers in Myers-Briggs profiling. Camronn and Antonia developed a method for discovering Myers-Briggs type that went beyond the standard method of written testing.
They developed a live interview process and a discipline of observational profiling (typing) where type could be estimated based on various clues including vocal tonality, speech content and nonverbal cues.
Early on I began to suspect that type could be seen quickly, efficiently and accurately by honing my intuition though rigorous dedication to the skill and through relentless practice.
I studied with a community of other Myers-Briggs profilers and practiced with strangers whom I met along the way. I found it to be a great joy to use what I had learned to connect with people and help them feel seen and understood.
Here on the site, you can find type descriptions with extensive lists of celebrities and the types and you can book type readings where I can help you find clarity on your type.
