The PEOPLE Process TYPE Talk Understanding People is what it's all about.
June 2006

Greetings!

ANNOUNCEMENT! Check out The PEOPLE Process Blog at www.thepeopleprocess.com/blog.

I absolutely love writing these newsletters! You'd think that after all these years of teaching "type theory" I'd be bored by it. To the contrary, it just becomes more interesting and fulfilling for me. In this June issue, we talk about the third dimension of behavior - how we make Decisions - Thinking or Feeling. Understanding these two preferences will be a valuable assistance in your relationships.

The article from Type Talk on being a Thinking Woman or a Feeling Man will explain any possible confusion you've had with "logical" women and "sensitive" men. And, if you have children of these types, this information will be very helpful.

I'm one of these Thinking women, and this knowledge has been very powerful for me in understanding why I often "take the breath away" from people with my ability to be so direct. I think I'm saving time and being honest - they feel as though they've been "punched in the gut." We look forward to hearing from you.

  • HOW WE MAKE DECISIONS - THINKING OR FEELING

    The third dimension of behavior in type theory is how we prefer to make Decisions. Thinking and Feeling describe the two ways people make decisions, or come to conclusions. Each of us has a natural inborn preference for one behavior over the other and Thinking and Feeling both describe rational decision-making processes. It's not that Thinkers have no feelings, or that Feelers are incapable of logic - it's just that they use very different criteria to make their decisions.

    It's no surprise that preferences for Thinking or Feeling influence career choices. The helping professions attract large numbers of Feelers because this gives them an opportunity to fulfill one of their greatest needs, helping people. Business and management attracts a lot of Thinkers because when it comes to being able to make a decision that is based on the bottom line, Thinkers are more easily able to make the tough decision and take the required action.


    WHAT'S IT LIKE TO BE A THINKING WOMAN OR A FEELING MAN?

    What's it like when the world expects you to be one way, and you're just the opposite? What's it like to often surprise people, or shock them? What's it like to be a Thinking woman, or a Feeling man?

    When growing up, the Thinking woman identifies with boys and men and usually has trouble fitting in with girls and women. The Feeling man feels most "different" in times of conflict and even though as chldren they learn to hide their sensitive side when around other boys, in adolescence their Feeling side is welcomed in the company of young women and creates envy in their teenage male friends.

    What clients are saying about us.....

    The session that I led for our company's twenty Human Resource & Training Professionals went very well and the feedback I received was wonderful. The participants truly enjoyed discovering their "type" and learning about their peers as well. They loved The PEOPLE Process tools and said they made it easy to stay engaged and gave them information in a clear and concise way. The session lasted about 2-1/2 hours and they were hungry for more! I referred them to the TPP participant book for further reading. The learning session was indeed "profound" for all the participants. As our organization determines next steps for The PEOPLE Process, I will keep in touch. Mary Ellen Higgins, SPHR, Director, Training & Development, ACCENT

    We have found this product to be effective in training diplomats in negotiation and crisis management skills, retrenched fishermen in job seeking skills, managers in hi-tech organizations in career development, hospital emergency-room staff in managing conflict encounters, civil servants in time management skills, trainers in advanced facilitation skills, and entrepreneurs in new business start-ups. Without exception, participants have been able to relate easily to the use of the system, are amazed at the uncanny accuracy of the personality type profile, and have been able to apply The PEOPLE Process in their daily work. David Kenny, Director, PKA Training & Development, Ireland

    ...a great tool to help team members understand themselves and their teammates better. My clients love it because it has been delightfully accurate and is a practical "take-away" that they can share with the significant people in their lives. I highly recommend it as a key tool for facilitators to use to assess personality type preferences. Ruth Urban, M.S., Certified Professional Facilitator, The Urban Group, Las Vegas, Nevada
