“He who knows others is learned. He who knows himself is wise.”
– Lao Tzu
Whether you are looking for a new career direction, or developing your leadership skills, the first step on the journey is discovering your own personal strengths.
Career exploration requires identifying your personal passions, your unique talents, your most important values, and the work environments that you will best thrive in. With our assessments and personal exploration exercises, we can draft a blueprint together for a fulfilling career that uniquely fits you. And then map out a strategic marketing plan to land that perfect job.
If you are leading a high-performance team, you need to not only discover your own personal leadership style, but also the unique motivators and talents of your team members. We can help you develop greater flexibility in your leadership approaches, to get the best out of each of your employees, and help them collaborate together more effectively.

Group Workshops
Our workshops are highly engaging and interactive. Instead of “death by powerpoint” and droning lectures, our workshops feature multimedia presentations, group activities, facilitated discussions, real world examples, introspective exercises, and interactive games to bring complex concepts to life.
Discovering Your Personality Type
Half-day, 8-40 participants
In this introductory workshop, participants use the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to discover their unique personality types, including their strengths, workplace needs, preferred communication styles, and potential areas of development.
They also learn to appreciate and value the differences of others, rather than turning those differences into sources of irritation and conflict.
This workshop can serve as a stand-alone introduction or as a prelude to more advanced workshops.
Advanced Type Workshops
Building on a foundation of type awareness, our advanced workshops are custom-tailored to your specific needs, including pre-workshop analysis and post-workshop consulting.
Advanced workshops can focus on any of the following topics:
- Team Building
- Communications
- Leadership Development
- Conflict Resolution
- Stress Management
- Creative Problem-Solving
- Career Development
- Change Management
- Sales
- Customer Service
Advanced workshops include use of the MBTI to assess individual types, plus a team type analysis to pinpoint group strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots.
Speed Reading People
1-2 hours, 8-100 participants
When you don’t have the time or the budget for a full MBTI workshop, this shorter program uses a simpler four-style Temperament model to identify fundamental personality differences.
Discover if you are a Guardian, an Artisan, an Idealist, or a Rational.
Learn how your temperament affects your communication style, relationships, career choice, and even your fashion sense.
This entertaining and interactive program uses life-sized characters from “Star Wars” and other pop culture sources to bring personality theory to life. It makes a wonderful opener for a corporate retreat, association conference, or any other gathering where people want to know each other better.
