We're excited to partner with North Point Community Church in sharing this new content for leaders. We hope you'll leverage this in your next team meeting. Discussion guide is included when you register! https://lnkd.in/dpYRze2

The best thing about remote work in your opinion might be the same reason your colleague hates it. Our temperaments shed light on why—and reveal how managers can make remote work WORK for everyone on the team.

One bit of data about your colleagues—their temperament—is all you need to know to avoid making a mess with your words at work.

A different way of thinking about the categories of introvert and extrovert might change how you see yourself and some of your colleagues. (And may help you solve some of your team’s most frustrating dynamics!)

There’s no way to make every meeting a home run. But there is one easy (and effective) way to make them much less miserable. The secret is knowing who’s in the room.

Last July, one of our certified trainers had the opportunity to train 40 Leadership Team members at one of the largest elementary schools in Forsyth County, Georgia. (They have 1,582 students!) Because they found the content to be so helpful, they reached out to have everyone in the building (from teachers to support and admin staff) trained during winter break. We love partnering with school systems and equipping staff to build students up with their words. Reach out if you'd like to discuss a training for your staff.

Take one thing into consideration before celebrating and thanking your team members. It’s quick, easy, free… and might save you from botching what is supposed to be a meaningful show of gratitude. 

Some of our favorite days of work are when we get to teach teachers! A while back, one of our teammates had the chance to speak to the incredible educators at a local elementary school. This fall, she was invited to return—this time to teach the temperaments to a group of 4th and 5th grade students! The teachers had found the material so helpful in understanding their students that they wanted the students to better understand themselves (and each other) too. Based on these thank you notes, it sounds like mission accomplished! If you are an educator or administrator who’d like to share the temperaments with your team, reach out! We’d love to chat.

A critical detail is missing from most discussions of who to hire.  The companies who consider it have a competitive advantage (and happier teams). Want to know what it is?
