Workshop Description

To understand fully the power of the MBTI assessment, you need to experience it in a group. For nearly thirty years, OKA has led the field in bringing Type to groups and been passionate for fostering personal and organizational growth. Come see why OKA is the most popular qualifying trainer in the world.

OKA’s MBTI Qualifying Workshop is designed for participants who are somewhat familiar with Type’s fundamental concepts but want a more advanced theoretical foundation, techniques for use of the instrument, and ideas for practical applications. Honed over nearly 30 years of successful delivery, our design is a combination of lecture, group participation and experiential exercises that add up to what many participants believe to be the most valuable training experience they have ever had. Participants who successfully complete this course are qualified by the publisher of the MBTI assessment to purchase the Indicator.

Course Objectives:

• Experience and discuss the eight preferences
• Explore Type dynamics, Type development and balance
• Discuss the irony of the opposite within each of us
• Review and assess research and uses of Type
  
• Utilize Temperament Theory
  
• Learn how to administer and practice interpreting the MBTI assessment
