Product Description

Product Description

Utilizing Jung's model of personality, this book illustrates the basic differences in the ways people read and respond to the same situations. Applying the 16 Myers Briggs Type Indicator personality types to everyday situations, the text shows how our personality preferences produce interpersonal blind spots that lead to misunderstandings. It then offers practical tips for communicating more effectively with others. The text demonstrates how to recognize and value differences without letting them get in the way of relationships. Thus enabling readers to look at, understand and improve the way they communicate and relate to colleagues.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great book for understanding business relationships, 5 April 1999
By A Customer
I've known my MBTI for many years, so what? It wasn't until I read this book that I understood all the implications. The book goes beyond just explaining your personality type, but actually provides useful information regarding how to deal with each. Information is displayed in great succinct charts covering such aspects as: expression of attitudes, motivators, inner tensions, development recommendations, how the type gathers/absorbs information, valued relationship qualities, as well as hot buttons, prejudices, and other issues. I purchased two copies, one to keep and one to distribute among my team.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book, 4 Mar 2006
I first encountered Myers-Briggs 15 years ago via managament training (age 21) and "Individual Excellence" by Ralph Lewis and Phil Lowe. It had been lurking somewhere at the back of my mind all this time until I encountered this book by chance at work.

With what I had learned about life in the intevening 15 years, this book was a revelation revealing to me the full power and richness of the Meyers-Briggs / Jung model.

I can fully understand the reviewers who found this book to be not so good (for them). I found it to be a challenging read at times, and read some sections as many as four or five times to try to understand what was being explained. (I hold a 2.1 Honours Degree in Chemistry from Cambridge University.....)

Personally I would recommend the Lewis / Lowe book as a starter, leave it for a few years and "experience life", and then buy, beg or borrow this book - you won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book explains everything, 15 Aug 1999
By A Customer
Instead of just telling you that the MBTI exists and providing unsubstantiated examples, this book explains the theories behind type classification, giving you the background necessary to make justifications about the role it should play in your life. Rather than encouraging the use of type theory to put people in categories, "I'm Not Crazy..." provides the opporunity for you to broaden your understanding of the motivations behind the thoughts and actions of those that are close to you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mixed feelings
I found the first half of the book not very good. Rather theoretical, and, I believe, not always so true.
But the second half was very good. Read more
