Workshop Description

There is a big difference between having personal knowledge of the MBTI assessment and having the skill and confidence needed to bring this information to life in a training session. The Type Trainer’s Skillshop was designed to address this gap by training qualified trainers who want to develop their skill in delivering high-impact workshops that make Type concepts accepted, understood and used by any group.

This popular three-day design, capped at 18 participants, models and then deconstructs an effective introductory workshop, breaks the training into components and gives each participant focused time to prepare, deliver and get detailed feedback on a presentation. Time is given to theory review, new exercises and training techniques, contracting issues and Type table analysis.

Course Objectives:

• Identify the ten training micro-components that make you effective with any group
• Design workshops that match training content and structure to the needs of your group
• Discover how your Type impacts the group—and how the group impacts you
• Practice training and facilitation skills and receive both professional and peer feedback
• Utilize a variety of handouts, reports and other training aids and tools
• Develop a collection of Type examples, stories and illustrations
