Have you ever wondered why you seem to relate better to some people than others? Why some of your colleagues seem to be on your wavelength whereas others have very different thought processes and styles?

Have you ever asked yourself “Why don’t they get it?” when an idea, conclusion or plan of action seems obvious to you?

 

Myers Briggs

The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is the most widely used instrument for understanding personality differences – differences that can be the source of much misunderstanding and miscommunication between people. (Over 2 million MBTI personality questionnaires are completed each year worldwide). The MBTI, based on over fifty years of research, is extremely effective in enabling you to identify your strengths and provides in a practical way a better understanding of yourself, your motivations and potential areas for growth. Equally it will also enable you to understand and appreciate those who differ from you. It is not a test as there is no measure of ability, it measures preferences. It is therefore a proven personality profiling tool for building understanding in teams and organisations and thus enabling better performance.

  • Team building and team development using MBTI Workshops :

Improving communication, enhancing team problem solving, valuing diversity and resolving conflict. An introductory workshop will enable each team member to understand their own type and how this impacts the team. Each workshop is tailored to your requirements and each participant will take the questonnaire online prior to the workshop and get the results at the workshop. The workshops are fun, highly interactive and always well received. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is non-judgemental and there are good day and less-good day behaviours for all types and so  a workshop provides a great forum for getting to know and understand team members.

After a recent workshop we received the following testimonial: “Thank you for your contribution to our team building workshop. The team really enjoyed and valued your session” HR Manager PoloRalphLauren, London. (For more testimonials see ‘What People Say’)

Completion of this team workshop will enable participants with:

  • Greater understanding of their own operating style and how this may affect their performance at work.
  • Recognition of and appreciation for differences with others thus reducing conflict, enabling change and enhancing team interaction.
  • Recognition of individual contributions to the team thus enhancing creativity and the problem solving ability of the team.
  • Ability to see things from other perspectives, valuing diversity and so, enabling teamwork to flourish.
  • A framework for better communication both internally within the team and externally, leading to greater productivity.
  • A framework of influencing tools to ensure the organisation’s message is successfully articulated.

Experience shows that teams that have been through the workshop are more productive afterwards. Research has also shown that self awareness and awareness of others is key for high performance.
