Understanding how you characteristically interact with people, and appreciating your similarities and differences with others, can make the difference between feeling in flow or swimming against the current whether at work, with family, in personal relationships, or any type of interpersonal communication.
What Basically Does It Look Like?
You will fill out an official version of the MBTI™ or Personality Dimensions™ assessment followed by some interactive exercises to help you understand the core concepts of personality temperament to make a self-assessment before seeing your results. The MBTI assesses personality along 4 double-ended scales, resulting in 16 different personality “type” combinations (e.g., ESFP, INTJ, etc). Personality Dimensions assesses temperament to prioritize one’s preference for each of four styles (Organized Gold, Authentic Blue, Inquiring Green, Resourceful Orange). Used properly, these assessments do not categorize or pigeon-hole but instead help people understand degrees of preference and insightful nuances about themselves and others. More detail can be found in experience descriptions.
Where Does It Take Place?
Personality insight workshops are done in a large yurt, with panoramic windows to the forest and transparent dome to the sky, you will feel like you are nestled organically into the woodlands. It’s a peaceful place & space to be getting to know yourself better.
Why Can It Be Beneficial?
Personality type and temperament models based on the work of Carl Jung are among the most widely used non-clinical frameworks for exploring how people interact with the world around them: how we perceive information, how we make choices, whether we orient more toward structure or openness, and whether we are more at home in our outer or inner domain (introversion/extraversion). It is helpful for anyone who would like to move along life’s path more effectively and more smoothly by better understanding their unique combination of traits, and how they correspond and contrast with those of other people—in communications, in relationships, in values, at home and at work, in family and community.
