Myers Briggs Type Indicator and Leader Development
Presenter: Perry Sholes, SHRM-SCP, SPHR – President of Progressive HR Strategies Inc
Overview of the Workshop:
The Leader Development workshop is designed to teach participants how to enhance and develop their leadership effectiveness using the principles of psychological type. This module begins by encouraging leaders to become aware of their typical paths in daily activities and what happens if they over or under-use their natural tendencies. This leads to an exploration of both acknowledged and unacknowledged leader strengths and vulnerabilities as well as an investigation of the core processes in leadership development. Participants will then explore development options and work on creating their own development plans. The workshop ends by investigating leaders values that can engender awareness of important, larger potential contributions and inspire transformations in those whom they lead.
