Myers-Briggs Workshop: Capitalizing on Your Strengths
Goal of Myers-Briggs (MBTI) Workshop: This
workshop will provide participants with new insights and tools on how
to communicate effectively with people who have differing communication
patterns than their own. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator will be used
to assist in achieving this goal.
Objectives:
- Know your own personality "type" through the MBTI.
- Know how to recognize communication patterns in others and be able
to modify your own communication to be more effective at work and home.
- Build understanding, harmony, and trust among people who often see
the world differently.
- Give people who are in conflict new skills in reaching common ground.
- Gain appreciation for the different gifts co-workers bring to your
organization
What is the MBTI: The MBTI is
a personality instrument that focuses on how people’s apparently
random behavior is actually consistent when it comes to how they prefer
to get information, make decisions, and orient their lives. The instrument
that would be used in this workshop is a 94 question self-scoring indicator
that assures total confidentiality to the person who completes the form.
Benefits of the MBTI to the Individual:
- Helps individuals learn about themselves and their preferences.
- Offers a logical and orderly model of human behavior.
- Is neither judgmental nor pejorative while providing a model designed
to raise self-esteem.
- Helps assess the fit between person and job.
- Builds an objective framework for emotional issues.
- Show how to persuade and influence others (how to "sell"
your ideas).
- Helps build better relationships with others on the job and at home.
- Indicates why some things come easily to people and why other things
are more difficult to do.
- Provides self-awareness in many different areas.
- Helps people identify their strengths and weakness in communicating
with others.
Mr. Bookman was certified as an MBTI practitioner in 1985.
