About the Program

Please join us on Saturday, May 19,  for an overview of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Step II.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indication (MBTI) Step I provides the basic building blocks for understand your psychological type. The MBTI Step II builds on the foundation of Step I by indicating facets of each function and attitude. The objective of this meeting program is to expand our ongoing discussion of functions and attitudes with facets of judging, perceiving, and attitude:

Participants can expect to gain an understanding of

• ·         The facets of judging and perceiving functions and altitude facets
• ·         The construction of the MBTI Step I & II instruments.

If you took the Step II instrument several years ago when I presented a similar topic, let me know if you need a copy of your results. If you wish to take the Step II instrument, send me an email request (jdb@juliand.com) and I will email you instructions. The cost of the report is $25.95 which is what CPP charges me for scoring the instrument and producing the report.

For many years, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator(r) has provided tools for understanding self and others through the dynamics of the 16 personality types. Today, the emerging field of neuroscience is validating Jung’s pioneering theory of the eight cognitive functions. Ongoing brain research supports Jung’s model and brain imaging literally paints a rich picture of diversity among individuals.

At the intersection of neuroscience and psychology, UCLA professor Dario Nardi has discovered that people of different psychological types don’t merely rely on different brain regions. They use their brains in fundamentally different ways.

Using colorful anecdotes, hands-on activities, and brain imagery, Dr. Nardi shares tips for healthy personality development across the 16 personality types.

Learn what current brain research reveals about

• How different psychological types get into a state of creative flow
• How to use Jung’s 8 cognitive processes to improve productivity, flexibility and competence in work and daily life.

Do you understand the relationship between how you like to make decisions and the type of work you prefer? Our program this month is about understanding the middle two preferences of your Myers-Briggs four letter type and how they impact the work that is a good fit for you.

In this session you will learn:

-         how each of the functions (S,N,T,F) basically determine the type of work preferred,

-         how the functional pairs (ST, SF, NT, NF) translate into skills and competencies,

-         what the J and P preferences bring in terms of work,

-         what the E/I preference means,

-         what type development adds to work preferences.

With the gift-giving season in full bloom, questions inevitably arise regarding which gifts might be well-received (nice) and which might be ill-conceived (naughty) choices.  What do you give an ENTP?  An ISTJ?  What about an INFP?  Find out as we discuss gift-giving in relation to type.  Gift suggestions based on appeal to each of the 8 functions (courtesy of Type Resources, Inc. www.type-resources.com) will be presented, and our illustrious chapter members will provide input, as well, guiding us to the perfect gift.

Don’t miss this mostly informal gathering, just in the nick (pun intended) of time for those last minute purchases.

What Is Your Best Fit Type?

About This Program

If you’re a newbie to Type, we will offer the Majors PTI** to give you a starting point for finding your best fit, with Temperament and a bit of Jung’s psychological type theories thrown in for good measure, followed by interactive exercises to determine your Interaction Style.

**Arrive by 9am if you would like to take the Majors PTI Assessment**

If you’ve had questions about one of your scales, you might find some of these exercises helpful in clarifying the issue.

If you’re a practitioner and don’t use this process for helping clients determine their best fit type, you’ll enjoy watching this methodology in action.

About The Presenters

Barbara Brown (INTJ) will administer the Majors PTI and follow up with Temperament and Jungian cognitive processes and Joy Jones (ESFP) will clarify further with Berens’ Interaction Styles concepts.
