Ever wonder, “Why are people so doggone hard to figure out . . . and even harder to work with?”
Or, “We’re on the same team, so why do we clash so much on little stuff like turf and territory and operating rules and procedures and deadlines and priorities? Is there a way to get us together and get the job done?”
The ultimate reality is that conflicts and tensions and other disagreements come not because some of those other people are plain ornery, or others are turf-warriors. The reality is that different people –with different personalities—see and react to the world in different ways.
UNDERSTAND and WORK BETTER with PEOPLE and TEAMS is based on a system developed by Carl Jung. Use it for viewing yourself with fresh perspective, as well as for understanding and adapting to the different ways others perceive and react to events and communications . . . and to you.
It’s a practical guidebook with checklists, case studies , and a variety of “cheatsheets” designed to help you recognize key factors in your own core personality . . . and in the people around you, at work and in family life.
The approach you will be learning to apply here –like the various Myers-Briggs systems – derives from Jung’s insights. But our aim here, unlike Myers-Briggs and similar programs, is not to provide psychological insights for therapy or for career choice. Rather, it is to provide you a practical tool helping you apply Jung’s insights to the real-world situations you encounter at work and in life.
WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS BOOK
Most books are to be read. This book is to be worked. You don’t just read; rather, you will be working with the author through several applications, dialogues and mini-case studies that guide you in processing and applying the material you have covered.
The point of the exercises? To help you move beyond “mere reading” and begin to apply Jung’s concepts, sometimes in exercises when you get practice in using the checklists and other job aids, then in the final chapter some case studies reminiscent of people we all know.
PRACTICAL WAYS IN WHICH THIS BOOK WILL HELP YOU
It’s designed to help you arrive at helpful answers to questions such as,
Of the people with whom you work, what personality characteristics are key in their make-up and worldview, and what implications result?
How does my “personality’s world-view” differ from theirs? What implications? How can we overcome those differences?
What are my—and their—typical strengths ... and vulnerabilities? How can we both compensate?
How can I and they work better as a team? (If you’re the team leader, or a co-worker, how can you facilitate productivity and minimize unnecessary clashes?)
What shapes the way they make decisions?
What steps can you take to improve your communications? Can you adjust your approach, so they “hear” you better — that is, so they become more open and attuned to what you’re saying?
What practical skills and insights can you develop from these differing approaches and insights?
