Abstract: Abstract: The theories on individual learning and research findings by applying Myers-Briggs Type Indicatorl(MBTI) in the organizational environment are reviewed, and then, the relationship between manager’s personality type and individual learning capability is empirically explored. The data analysis shows that N/S dimension has significant influence on the individual learning capability; except T/F dimension, the other three dimensions affect several sub-capabilities more or less. The statistic results enrich individual learning research under the corporation background, and provide some valuable hints on human resource management.

Key words: personality type, individual learning capability, MBTI
