Businesses can increase productivity through gaining a deep understanding of members’ basic personality types (4 “colours“). They can learn more about their respective strengths and then explore how to use this knowledge to decrease stress and/or conflict, to prepare for retirement or to increase sales.
Or perhaps you want to explore bringing positivity to the workplace. Team members can learn positive research-based methods that will help them thrive at work so they can enjoy the work environment even more. Discover how team members can enjoy increased well-being in the workplace.
I have successfully facilitated team presentations in the not-for-profit sector and the corporate sector – at all levels. This engaging and experiential series, based on personality theory (“colours“) varies with respect to your time limits. Do you want a “Lunch & Learn”, a half-day session or a full day (or more) program for a retreat? I willl work with you to create a program that will ensure your team’s success.
Thriving With All Personalities is based on Personality Dimensions®, a personality assessment developed by Canadians, and often referred to as “colours“ by clients. There is a basic introductory workshop on personality (“colours“), along with applications that are customized to suit your business.
