This booklet, authored by OKA's consulting director, connects the framework of psychological type with the activities and processes of project management. The booklet includes an introduction to type and key project management terms and processes, a section connecting type to project management from a diagnostic and intervention perspective, an overview of 16 “project types,” and five case studies. This booklet is a great supplement for a type workshop with a project team, or as an independent resource for project managers continuing to deepen their leadership expertise.

A fundamental introduction to how an individual's psychological type affects daily interactions at work and can influence everyday workplace activities such as responding to conflict, work style, being part of a team, making decisions, dealing with change, and communication.

In this follow-up book to Turning Team Performance Inside Out, training professionals Nash and Bolin bring you more than sixty exercises, activities, and tools to create and sustain winning teams. By linking the impact of individual team members' type and temperament with the characteristics of high-performing teams, this fieldbook offers hands-on learning that is both interactive and inspiring for consultants and coaches, team leaders, and team members.

In the first book to use the insights of type and temperament to directly - and immediately - improve team performance, Susan Nash demonstrates that the key to improving team performance is to begin at the beginning - go inside the team to analyze the type and temperament of each team member and of the team as a whole. She looks into the complexities of human behavior to help managers, team leaders, and team members understand their team's behavior patterns, create and interpret a team profile, and design performance improvement strategies that produce immediate results.
