I can see how this would feel really invasive, and just quickly googled *mandatory personality tests at work* and it appears that a lot of people really don't like this stuff but feel under pressure to go along. There appear to also ADA and other legal issues. I don't mind this stuff as much as others do (we do a light version of 'team-building' at my job that I have found inoffensive and kind of fun, but it's very light)--but both the activities at your job and the manner in which they've been conducted sound really insensitive and not like something I'd want to participate in. It's cruelly ironic that these things are meant to illuminate our personal differences, yet fail to realize that these very differences mean that for some of us this will be extremely uncomfortable or unbearable. Just wanted to say I feel you on this, and there's a lot of stuff online (even from Wall Street Journal and Forbes) that questions the ethics and the usefulness of this stuff.
