Introduction


To be able to lead effectively as a member of a team, one must know one’s own personality and communications style and then be able to interact with others of like or unlike personalities and behaviours.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an instrument where participants will gain knowledge of the 4 main dichotomies; Extravert/Introvert (or E-I dichotomy), Sensing/Intuitive (or S-N dichotomy), Thinking/Feeling (or T-F dichotomy) and Judging/Perceiving (or J-P dichotomy).

This new workshop will help you analyse the people whom you work with and apply various leadership and communication styles to get things done.


Objectives


In this workshop, participants will have greater understanding and awareness of:

1. Who in your team love to be surrounded by other people while others do not.

2. Who in your team are likely to insist on seeing financial or stewardship reports and who prefer to see possibilities and the big picture to make decisions.

3. Why some policies and decisions made by your team members seem to be purely driven by a business mindset, while others are more thoughtful of people.

4. Who on your team are likely to generate plans to the tee, while others will ‘seize the day’ and get a thrill out of the 11th hour work submission.
