Synopsis

Like leaves of many colors, we each have a different energy. Each colored leaf excites the senses in different ways and evokes a different emotion just as each of us impacts and influences others in different ways. This energy is driven from within by our predispositions and yet influenced by our interactions with others. There is a richness and variety in the many ways we have of expressing who we are. The four interaction styles are patterns of behavior that have been described by many over the years. Each style has a theme-centered internal drive that helps set the boundaries of our comfort zones in the chaotic world of interpersonal relationships. If we can recognize our own style, we can better match our energy and know how to adapt and flex when necessary to reach goals and meet others at their view of the world. Understanding Yourself and Others: An Introduction to Interaction Styles reveals the four fundamental interaction style patterns for you to try on in your search for understanding yourself and others. Within these patterns are clues to the how of our behaviors. Find out how you consistently seem to fall into certain roles in your interactions with others and how you can shift your energies to take on other roles when necessary. The Understanding Yourself and Others Series offers you powerful and insightful tools to help you achieve your professional and personal goals whether you're the leader of an organization striving to build better teams or an individual wanting to better understand yourself and the people with whom you interact. The series presents the essential elements of personality through three overlapping and complementary models: temperament theory, interaction styles, and cognitive dynamics, all of which support systemic learning and application. Exploring these models helps answer questions about how and why we do what we do, and provides hands-on guidance through showing you potential paths for growth and development. The books in this series are written by experts and are based on proven methods for effective learning and application. Edition 2.0 includes content on the 4 variations of each interaction style which is gives us the 16 personality types.
