Webcasts to empower individuals to be the best versions of themselves by enriching self-awareness and understanding of others. We help organizations of all sizes improve teamwork and collaboration, develop inspirational leaders, foster diversity and solve their most complex people challenges. We are the Myers-Briggs® Company, one of the world’s largest business psychology providers –  the publisher of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) and other leading psychometric tools.

As employees re-evaluate their expectations of work and their workplace, organizations need to realign work practices to better support their people. The new holistic approach focuses on the fundamentals every organization needs to support employees properly: flexibility, well-being, inclusion, and resilience.

In this session, we’ll explore people-focused strategies that acknowledge the disruption of the work landscape and help inform new patterns of employee and team support.

You’ll learn:

• How disruptors affecting the work landscape impact employee well-being, engagement, and retention
• Why organizations need to pivot and respond to new employee needs and expectations
• How flexibility, engagement and development impact employees
• Strategies to boost holistic support for employees and teams

3 employee support essentials for the new workplace

Most organizations say they are committed to diversity, equity or equality, and inclusion. But many diversity and inclusion initiatives are unsuccessful or even counterproductive, especially if they focus on diversity at the expense of inclusion. In an inclusive organization, everyone should feel respected and valued for who they are as an individual or as a member of a group.

In this webinar John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will draw on his research to show:
• The evidence that employees who feel more included have higher levels of well-being and are more engaged in their work
• The factors that lead to employees feeling more included
• The perception gap – how leaders see themselves as being more inclusive than they really are
• How personality type affects inclusion.

The webinar will outline seven practical recommendations for increasing workplace inclusion, including specific tools for enhancing inclusive leadership.

Leadership’s perception gap: Research on diversity, inclusion and managers

We’re living in volatile, fluctuating times. Some people are working from home, some have gone back to the office, some are uncertain about the future, and many have a new ‘hybrid’ workstyle. But whatever your new work pattern, your personality type will always affect what you find stressful, and what strategies you’ll find effective.

In this webinar John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will draw on data from research to show how you, and your team, can adapt to the new reality. You’ll learn:
- What personality type is and what different personalities find stressful
- Current working pattern breakdowns, how to work with those who want to go back to the office, and with those who don’t
- The challenges of hybrid working for different personality types
- How to stay psychologically safe and create a trusting hybrid work environment
- Escaping the ‘stress zone’ for each type

You don’t need any previous knowledge of the MBTI assessment or personality type to attend this session.

How to adapt to constant change – especially in the workplace

The Myers-Briggs Company has shown that the relationship between leaders and employees can impact employee sentiment and well-being. Additionally, strong relationships between leaders and employees can promote a sense of inclusion where differences, diversity of thought, personality types, and life / work experiences can thrive. Leaders are central to creating and driving a culture of inclusion for supporting employee relationships and realizing the potential and value of diverse individuals and teams. But what are the leadership behaviors that promote inclusion, and build strong relationships with employees? It all starts with self-awareness and a practical, committed approach to becoming a more inclusive leader.
 
In this live webinar, Dr. Rachel Cubas-Wilkinson, Principal Organizational Development Consultant for The Myers-Briggs Company, will highlight key insights around Inclusive Leadership and why this vein of leadership development is a rising priority for organizations and a lever for strengthening employee relationships and inclusion.

Join us for this live webinar where we will:
• Review the impact of leader-employee relationships and inclusive organizational cultures
• Examine how leaders are central to carrying out commitments to inclusion of diversity of thought
• Consider challenges leaders face in promoting diversity of thought and realizing the potential of diverse teams
•	Give participants a sample self-reflection opportunity to identify a personal area of strength and growth in practicing inclusive leadership

Nurturing diversity of thought through inclusive leadership

How do you answer the question: Does using the MBTI framework make a real difference?

John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will explore what ‘making a difference with the MBTI assessment’ means. Along with the science behind what makes the MBTI so robust, he will talk through real client stories that show it in action. John has some great research to share with you, including studies looking at return on investment and his latest findings into how understanding personality can help us through the challenges we face in 2021 and beyond.

If you have people (including yourself!) looking to understand the real, measurable value of using the MBTI framework, this is the webinar for you.

Measuring the impact of the MBTI® framework

How does employee well-being impact your company’s success? Our research examined performance and well-being measures, and the correlations we found were incredible. Not only did they relate to organizational performance but also to employee retention. This session will share the results of a five-year global study on workplace well-being and reveal research-backed, high–return on investment (ROI) ways you can manage and enhance workplace well-being in the new normal.

During this webinar, we will:
     - Review key findings of the workplace well-being study, including breakdown by age, gender, personality, occupation and country.
     - Discuss demonstrated, measurable ties between workplace well-being and organizational performance.
     - Identify research-based ways for improving well-being and specific strategies for improving workplace well-being that can be applied in any organization.

Why workplace well-being is the key to company performance

Aimed at people who are new to the MBTI, we will look at research showing that teams with a diverse mix of personalities are more effective. The catch: diverse teams can also experience more misunderstanding and conflict.

So, how do you make sure your team is effective? To start, each person should understand their strengths and how they fit in with the whole team.

In this webinar, John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will discuss how managers, team leaders, and HR professionals can use the insights provided by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) framework to maximize team performance and build individual awareness.

He will discuss the challenges of working with, and in, a diverse team, and show how teams can:

- Identify strengths and potential challenges
- Work to minimize the effects of potential blind spots
- Improve team problem solving, communication, and conflict resolution/management
- Maximize the advantages from the similarities and differences of team members
- Develop team and individual action plans to improve overall performance

We will also show how managers and team leaders can access these insights directly, even if they have no previous knowledge of the MBTI assessment.

Why do some teams clash while others collaborate?

All leaders want to unlock their team’s full potential. However, not all leaders know that the approach to unlock potential in Introverted team members is different than for Extraverted team members.

When it comes to the world of work, diverse teams containing both Extraverts and Introverts tend to perform better than less diverse teams. However, more diversity can also mean more conflict, and Extraverts may misunderstand and underestimate their Introverted colleagues or reports. As a result, businesses are missing out on a valuable resource.

In this webinar John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will dive into the differences between Extraversion and Introversion and will:

-Explain how team leaders can unleash the power of Introversion amongst their employees with the MBTI® framework 
-Provide key insights for Extraverts and Introverts to learn to work more effectively together
-Discuss how this applies to new research around remote working and the COVID-19 pandemic as well as to traditional workplace settings
-Outline how to leverage the Extraverted side of every Introvert, and share a seven-step plan for successful teamwork

Unleash the power of Introversion in your team

Having and fostering a “Growth Mindset” in the workplace leads to improved performance and outcomes for organizations, teams and employees. A Growth Mindset can also support development of our personality. 

Join this webinar to:
- Learn the latest research showing why having Growth Mindset matters professionally and personally 
- Learn how to apply a Growth Mindset and the MBTI personality framework to support individual and leadership development
- Gain tips for enhancing your personality strengths using a Growth Mindset

Developing a growth mindset and your personality for success

It is, sadly, well-known that women and minority ethnic individuals often get a raw deal in organizations. Women make up less than 10% of executive directorships in FTSE100 companies and less than 4% of executive directors in the top 150 FTSE companies describe themselves as black or minority ethnic. What’s less well-know is the way that attitudes to differences in psychological type can exacerbate this situation. In this webinar John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership at The Myers-Briggs Company, will use data from 1.7 million people to show how, by undervaluing particular aspects of personality, organizations contribute to the under-representation of women and minority groups at senior levels. He will discuss how type practitioners can use this knowledge to help address these issues and outline specific actionable steps that organizations can take.

Promote a diverse and inclusive workplace by understanding personality

Connecting with your audience through a screen is more difficult than it seems. Though switching from an in-person presenter to a virtual presenter may have its challenges, we've got you covered.

Engaging virtual delivery

John Hackston, Head of Thought Leadership, has been gathering your stresses and concerns during the Coronavirus crisis, and he’ll be sharing how these relate to MBTI personality type.

We’ll also take you through:
- What might cause stress for different personality types in the “new normal”
- How to spot signs of stress in your team, even without visual cues
- Techniques to escape the “stress zone”
- Advice for how to stay psychologically safe while working from home

Stress and stress reactions are unavoidable at a time like this. Recognising this, accepting this and having the tools and language to discuss this is crucial, and exactly the kind of support people are telling us they are looking for.

Who should join?
You don’t have to be MBTI qualified, in fact, we think everyone should know this, so do invite other members of your team.

If you have no idea what the MBTI framework is, there are some brilliant videos on our website to help you, although we will explain a little in the webinar.

If you’re MBTI qualified, you will have covered some of this on your training and we have some great slide decks for you to download, but this is a good refresher.

Personality and stress in a virtual world

While for many virtual working from home every day is the norm, for the vast majority this is a new experience. Helen Rayner, Lead Consultant at The Myers Briggs Company has undertaken research to explore the perceptions of working in virtual, co-located and combined teams and the impact it has on teamwork. 

In this webcast we will dive into that research, highlighting the five team scales that emerged, breaking down the challenges faced by virtual and office-based teams and highlight tools and techniques you can use to maintain team effectiveness.

How personality influences virtual teamwork

While we adjust to virtual teams becoming the norm in many organizations, managers and senior leaders are finding it increasingly urgent to focus on the impact of virtuality on team communication.

This is not the time for team performance to slow down, and team communication is a huge part of the shift. It is a precursor to effective team processes and outcomes, and with many organizations now forced to choose virtual teams as the go-to model for getting things done, you will be on the front line of supporting how to implement effective virtual team communication strategies.

When high quality communication is present amongst dispersed or remote teams, it leads to shared understanding, smoother overall functioning, and better performance.

In this one-hour webinar, our Senior Consultant, Rachel Cubas-Wilkinson, will:
- Explore the evolving shape of teams and trends for virtual teams in organizations.
- Examine the most crucial team elements which support high-quality communication.
- Consider personal and organizational strategies that can impact and improve the effectiveness of virtual teams.

Virtual teams and the critical role of effective communication

What’s the role of trust in the workplace?

Trust is the foundation for developing positive relationships. In this webinar, we’ll see why it matters. We’ll discuss the benefits that high-trust organizations enjoy, and we’ll share the evidence which supports that claim. 

Join the webinar and you will:

 - Learn the critical role that developing trust has in teams  
 - Explore different models of team effectiveness that are built on trust
 - Learn how to spot the signs that trust is lacking in a team
 - We’ll then introduce the MBTI framework to show:
 - How the MBTI assessment helps teams build trust
 - How one of our clients used it to build trust and improve team effectiveness

The always-on culture means always being connected to other people and being able to communicate anytime, anywhere across the world.  However, when smartphones and the internet are available 24/7, people can struggle to “switch off”. Our latest research explores what the always-on culture means for work-life balance, stress and engagement. We will also explore the role of personality and guidelines for optimizing the always-on culture for yourself, teams and organizations.

The role of personality in the always-on culture

FIRO-B® and MBTI® assessments join forces to help people build trust, develop powerful relationships and reach their greatest potential.

Creating powerful people is at the core of what you do. You want to help people build trust, develop powerful relationships, and reach their greatest potential. Self-awareness is the start of this journey through the exploration of communication and behavior styles.

Using the FIRO-B and MBTI assessments will enhance understanding of how personality type drives behavior and help individuals become more intentional in their choices and behavior by applying the results.

In this one-hour webinar, Ingrid Manning, Director of Global Practitioner Education, Quality & Content at The Myers-Briggs Company, shows how to leverage the FIRO-B and MBTI assessments to:

- Develop deeper insight into how personality, interpersonal needs, and other influences drive individual behavior
- Understand how both verbal and nonverbal communication can impact relationships, create misleading perceptions, and contribute to conflict
- Increase trust, influence, and engagement through intentional changes
- Enrich your practitioner tool kit for working with individuals and teams

Increase trust, influence and engagement by understanding behavior
