Riassunto

Every day each of us does simplethings like ordering a product and complex things like doing our job. All theseactivities involve partnering with others. Partnering is necessary and comesnaturally for most of us. Thesepartnerships satisfy not only functional needs but social and personal needs.However, partnering can have its difficulties.Psychologists have studied thedifficulties in partnering that healthy, normal people encounter. They foundthat how we perceive the world, how we make decisions, and how we interact withothers are preeminent pieces of the puzzle. Concepts of psychological type andpsychological temperament emerged from this work. We can use psychological typein our own personal growth to know, accept, and specialize in who we are. Additionally,psychological type can help with partnering by facilitating communications,acceptance and understanding, and providing insight about the diversity anddifferences we encounter.Psychological type comprises twoattitudes and two functions. Using these four variables, there are sixteen unique psychological types into which we allfall. When partnering one-on-one, if you combine 16 possible types with 16other psychological types, then you come up with 256 unique psychological typepartnerships possible. It is now clear why there is so much diversitypresent when people interact. Two hundred and fifty-six unique partnerships isa great deal to understand and master. It would be helpful to have acomprehensive reference manual that summarizes all of these combinations.This book provides this material,along with hints on how to deal with the most common type-based behaviors andthe use of temperament specific language to improve communication. This bookthen proposes how to use psychological type, psychological temperament, andteam skills to improve our most importantinteractions. Last, this manual proposes a general-purpose problem solvingprocess and provides an objective means of measuring how the interaction isgoing.Satisfy
