Community
at Work
~ Your key to sharing a vision that
is fulfilling and profitable

 Community
is the broader matrix for organisational growth. Its development
requires intervention at an individual level, to see how people
relate to the organisation, how they perceive its purpose, and
to what extent they invest in it.
This course explores some of the key dynamics in developing positive community,
enabling you to work towards creating a supportive and effective working culture.
You will have increasing ability to:
- Identify and communicate your vision of a positive
working community
- Understand the context of community for sustained performance
- Create an open work environment for facing challenges
- Engender true collaboration from a basis of 'power with' — rather
than 'power over'
- Foster a culture of 'wanting to' rather than 'having to' contribute
- Explore and expand genunine professional friendship

The Myers
Briggs Type Indicator®
What is The Myers Briggs Type Indicator®?
The Myers Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI)
is known worldwide as a tool for assessing personality
types.
The MBTI helps people to identify what they are
best at and prefer doing. It focuses on number of mental and behavioural
functions that are central to managing and processing information,
decision building, and operations.
The MBTI can be usefully applied in a number of areas:
- Developing managers at all levels (leadership training, coaching,
etc.)
- Improving team processes and group work
- Self- and stress-management – improving 'work-life-balance'
- Career development
Working with The Myers Briggs Type Indicator®
Interpretation of your MBTI results with the help
of a skilled trainer enables you to understand and value
your type, and guide you to areas for development. Knowing
oneself better is a necessary step towards understanding
and valuing others. Through our knowledge of the types in
our team, MBTI-users find it much easier to appreciate others
for their specific outlooks and contributions, rather than
manipulating them into conformity. Co-operation will improve,
and objectives will be achieved more efficiently.
