I'm Not Crazy…I'm Just Not You

BRADFORD ON AVON, England, March 8, 2010 - Many organisational conflicts arise from personality clashes.
In fact, one of the most common reasons that people give for leaving the
company they are working for is that they don't like their boss or their
colleagues.
If you feel more like a referee than a manager most days, the
chances are that your team has not yet found a way to pool their resources
and use their differences to best effect.
Myers Briggs Personality Type
(www.thinktd.co.uk/myers-briggs-personality-types.html) is a popular
psychological profiling tool that can be used to help people understand how
they impact on each other. It explores how different people are energised,
how they take in information, make decisions and organise their lives. For
example:
- Some people like to throw ideas around out loud while others prefer to figure things out quietly on their own. - Some need to collect lots of information before they'll act while others will just go with their hunches. - Some base their decisions on feelings and values while others deal in logic and principles. - And some like to plan and organise while others wait till the very last minute to deliver.
Myers Briggs (www.thinktd.co.uk/myers-briggs.html) is based on the
theory that there are 16 unique personality types. It doesn't seek to put
people in boxes or explain everything about a person's behaviour. What it
will do, though, is help your people understand and appreciate their
differences, reduce conflict and get your team working together for the
common good of your company.
