Workshop Description

It is logical that to be a better team member it’s important to be able to work with all personality types. But, do you sometimes find yourself wondering “why can’t everyone be normal like me?” This workshop, designed for attendees who do not necessarily work together, provides an introduction to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® and interactive exercises that highlight type differences. Attendees will take the MBTI® online prior to the course date and will receive an individual interpretation of their results.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® is the most widely used assessment and has been used for 60 years. This course will focus on how to communicate more successfully with people of all types, improve teamwork, and resolve conflict. Practical suggestions and examples for working with coworkers of all personality types will be presented. The suggestions are simple enough to be applied the day after the workshop and powerful enough to make a difference.
