The ability to communicate and to understand your own and others communication styles is critical to effective organizations and teams. This workshop will help participants discover their personality type using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator ®, understand their natural communication style, and learn how to use this knowledge to improve their communication with others. You will learn tips for communicating with people who have the same, similar, or very different communication styles. You will receive supporting materials that provide an overview about communication skills, strategies, and different styles; practical tips for communicating with others; and developmental tips for each of the 16 MBTI types.
(This is part of the Supervisory Skills, Human Resources Management, Professional Coaching, and Communication Skills Certificate Programs, but you do not need to enroll in the programs to take this workshop.)
