If you have any clients who are looking to do more with type, the next thing you can explore with them is Type Dynamics.
In case you aren’t familiar with Type Dynamics, it’s basically a structure that opens the door to a three dimensional (and more accurate) picture of each type. Really understanding type is more [...]

Change can be an exciting and rejuvenating thing for many people, but imposed change (especially bad change) is always tough to swallow. You might be experiencing this with your clients who are implementing budget cut-backs, lay-offs, salary-freezes, benefits reductions, and all of the other things that come along with the somewhat dire economic situation.

With the baby-boomers retiring, another organizational “hot topic” is Leadership Development. If you are certified, the CPI 260® tool is great for addressing this, as it can reveal a lot about the strengths and weaknesses of new leaders.
