Greetings!
ANNOUNCEMENT! Check out The PEOPLE Process Blog! www.thepeopleprocess.com/blog.
In this issue, we are discussing the second dimension of behavior in personality type theory - how we prefer to take in Information. Understanding the strengths and differences between a Sensor and an Intuitive can save you lots of time and money!
The feedback we've received on Your Leadership Story - How to Speak & Listen Like a Leader from The Type Reporter was that you really liked the article and were looking forward to Part 2 - to listen like a leader. We hope that this article is just as helpful.
Our mission is to provide information on psychological type that is easy to understand and use in your business and personal life. My personality type, INTJ, is 3% of the US population - a very small percentage of the other types - a total of 16 types. So, it is really valuable for me to understand how to relate to all of the other types. I look forward to hearing from you and hope that you enjoy this issue.

The second dimension of behavior in type theory is
how we prefer to take in
Information. This dimension
represents the greatest potential for differences
between people, since it applies to our world view.
For instance, I am an Intuitive and a couple
of years ago did some marketing for a civil engineering company. Most civil engineers prefer
Sensing to take in and give Information and relate it to you in terms of specific facts and numerical order. When the engineers gave me information for a project, my brain literally froze and I couldn't think until I was able to translate the information through my Intuitive
process. I needed to know what we were trying to
achieve and the purpose of the project - the end
result desired before I could understand the facts.
Once that was clear, I was able to understand what to do with the facts and what the engineers needed from me in return.
I'm sure that when I presented information to this
group of engineers, my tendency to describe the big
picture without the facts leading up, was just as
confusing to them. When Sensors and
Intuitives recognize what each other needs
in the Information cycle, they can be
powerful allies.

"What if all you had to do to be a leader was
speak and listen in a slightly different way, and
suddenly, you would be connecting with others and
changing the world?"
Use Feeling to listen for what makes
people proud. The secret of all leaders is that they know how to make people feel proud. If we want to be leaders and draw people toward us to help change the world, we should keep in mind that first and foremost people want to feel proud. What we
want to do is engage them in thinking about our
ideas, but in a way that makes them feel proud and
excited.

What clients are saying about us.....
Following the merger of four multi-billion dollar
aerospace companies, I was asked to lead a
technology transition team chartered to integrate
and develop the combined technologies.
The PEOPLE Process proved to be an invaluable tool
for choosing and building the team comprised of
scientists, engineers and physicists that are among
the top in the world. Because the technical
community often emphasizes the technical (hard
stuff) over the people (soft stuff), the materials
provided a powerful, unique and practical way to get
the team members to understand and complement
their differences and strengths. Above all, it was
key to developing strong personal and professional
relationships and enabled effective communication
among team members who had been arch rivals and
competitors for many years prior to the merger.

We have found this product to be effective in
training diplomats in negotiation and crisis
management skills, retrenched fishermen in job
seeking skills, managers in hi-tech organizations in
career development, hospital emergency-room staff
in managing conflict encounters, civil servants in time
management skills, trainers in advanced facilitation
skills, and entrepreneurs in new business start-ups.
Without exception, participants have been able to
relate easily to the use of the system, are amazed at
the uncanny accuracy of the personality type profile,
and have been able to apply The PEOPLE Process in
their daily work.

...a great tool to help team members understand
themselves and their teammates better. My clients
love it because it has been delightfully accurate and
is a practical "take-away" that they can share with
the significant people in their lives. I highly
recommend it as a key tool for facilitators to use to
assess personality type preferences.
