Ha, I'd totally forgotten that Five Dysfunctions talks about MBTI -- I think I'd blocked it out. I completely agree that MBTI is total bullshit. Thanks for pointing it out.

I think this illustrates something about business books in general: even when they contain a really good idea, they often also contain other less-good ideas. I think I tend to read business books really critically, and am comfortable remembering the lessons that are useful and ignoring the ones that aren't.

But I should add a note to my reading list about MBTI, least others think I'm recommending it and take it seriously.
