Enjoying Team Members Who Drive You Crazy:
Team-Building with the Meyers-Briggs Type
Indicator
Each participant in this fun, interactive, and
experiential workshop will identify her/his own
Myers-Briggs “type,” recognize how s/he helps
and hinders the success of team meetings and
projects, and discover how s/he can appreciate

Oh, and by the way, you’ll find out why you drive
other people crazy, too!
