What's the first thing you do when you arrive
at work on Monday morning?

weekends

around you

to change the week's routine

Your choice reflects your WORKType, a psychological
profile based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®),
the inventory used by thousands of professionals worldwide.
Now three Myers-Briggs experts help you discover your workstyle
and strengths in the workplace and use them to improve communications,
capitalize on teamwork, reduce stress, and find the best
time management approach for you. You'll learn how to:
- Make meetings more productive
- Get recognition for your ideas
- Diffuse interpersonal conflicts and tension
- Handle change more easily
- Feel more energized -- not drained --
by your job
Complete with examples of how each WORKType
functions, this dynamic book will help you make the most
of your WORKType -- with coworkers, bosses, and most of
all, yourself!
