Coaching W/ Personality Type
Description
Most coaches know that Personality Type indicators can add enormous value to their work. Based on the work of the distinguished Swiss psychologist, Carl Jung, questionnaires such as the MBTI® and its many rivals can give clients swift, deep, unsettling and reliable insights into their own behaviour and needs. Yet many coaches hesitate, asking questions such as:
• Do I know enough about it to use it confidently?
• Where does it add value in work with senior leaders?
• Where can it be useful when I’m working with a client on career issues?
• What should I do when a client challenges me on validity and reliability?
• What other psychometric assessments might I use and how do they complement Type indicators?
• How should I use it with groups, for instance on management development programmes?
• How does it work as part of a team coaching project?
This book will build your confidence. It gives you honest, straightforward, practical and realistic advice on these and other issues, from an author who is internationally recognised as a leading thinker and practitioner in executive and team coaching, as well as being an expert on Jungian Type. The book is enriched by dozens of short case studies.
"How can anyone resist? 'Coaching for Personality Types’ is a well written, accessible and stimulating book from one of my favourite coaching authors. Jenny brings her vast experience and warm personal style to offer the reader an in depth review of type based personality instruments from MBTI to Lumina, and how executive coaches can use type based approaches with sophistication to offer fresh insights and understanding to their clients."
Professor Jonathan Passmore, School of Psychology, University of Evora & Centre for Coaching, Henley Business School, UK
"A masterclass in the area. Jenny Rogers is an expert in both coaching and assessment but she avoids unnecessary statistics and theories. Rather, her book uses in-depth knowledge to underpin rich case studies, stories and really practical insights. The majority of coaches use the type model and type measures: this book enables them to become experts in their use – and doesn’t shy away from offering alternative approaches. There are plenty of type introductions around. This is the best for practising coaches by a long way."
Ian Florance, Consultant Editor, Meyler Campbell and Secretary European Test Publishers Group, UK
"As an extraordinarily well-written guide to assist both beginners and veteran coaches in the use and interpretation of the MBTI, Rogers' book has much to recommend it, and I do so wholeheartedly. It does what it says on the tin, but my goodness, it does a great deal more than that.
The section on the origins and psychological underpinnings of Type, the conceptual framework of the MBTI and its psychometric properties are presented with exemplary clarity; thorough, comprehensive and scrupulously balanced. Rogers’ combination of broad brush and fine strokes makes engagement with this relatively complex subject a richly rewarding experience.
The sections on coaching, quite aside from the MBTI focus, represent a masterclass of the highest order. The author’s breadth and depth of experience across a broad spectrum of individuals, organisations, and contexts, and the holistic insights thus gained, shine through on every page. 'What Works' deserves to be the gold standard, not only in respect of the MBTI and psychometric-assisted coaching, but also as an invaluable addition to the canon of coaching practice."
