To get started in MBTI, we recommend our basic
Introduction to Psychological Type workshop for groups. It runs for a full day (6 ¼ hours, including breaks and lunchtime). Or it can be split into two half-days. There's plenty of action and interaction.
This introductory workshop works very well with a group of 12-16 (or more) people. That's because with a large group, there's a better chance of having a wide range of "types" present, and everyone can see them in action.
However, we can also do sessions for individuals, couples, families, or groups smaller than 12-16 people. These we tailor to your needs and the number of people, and each session can run anywhere from 2 - 4 hours.
In all cases, we guarantee
professional confidentiality for individuals, couples, workshop groups and families.

TypeQuest personal services
A popular way to explore the MBTI is through our personal services format: a session of two hours or so, in which you get an introduction to the MBTI, determine your own "true type", and learn about how your type relates to and with other people in your life.
These smaller sessions work very well for one person or for a couple interested in the areas of personal growth, interpersonal communications, and personal/couples relationships. We can also offer smaller sessions for families and small groups.
Again, we guarantee
professional confidentiality for individuals, couples, groups and families.

Follow-up programs
We also offer follow-up workshops and programs on:
- Type at Work
- Type and Stress
- Type and Teams
- Type and Couples
These programs vary in length, and are often tailored to meet your needs. They can be full- or half-day workshops, or take the form of followup discussions of 2 - 4 hours for groups, individuals, couples or families.
For each of these followup programs, a prerequisite is that you have been through our
Introduction to Psychological type program or one of our
Personal services programs, or that you have been through a recognized similar program within the last 12 months.

Work-related programs
- Management skills
- Supervisory skills
- Leadership
- Team-building
In these areas, TypeQuest uses proven assessment tools and programs from
Human Synergistics Canada, a branch of
Human Synergistics International. We recommend that these programs and simulations be used in conjunction with the MBTI, but they can stand alone.
Human Synergistics training and development programs have been, and are, used by hundreds of leading companies and agencies and Fortune 500 firms. The programs offered by TypeQuest often include the use of 360-degree feedback, for which information is gathered in advance. And we take each participant through private briefings and preparation before the actual workshop.
The Human Synergistics programs we use include LSI and LSI 360°, LSI Stylus, and the Management Effectiveness Profile System (MEPS).
TypeQuest also offers a range of team-building programs and exercises including the Human Synergistics Group Styles Inventory (GSI). Our initial team-building program uses one of a number of Human Synergistics "team survival" simulations. As a followup, we offer an excellent Business Turnaround simulation, in which your team is challenged to rescue a failing company.
Human Synergistics also has programs to probe and measure a company's "organizational culture". We can help your company take a "reality check" on its current culture, and pinpoint areas for change that will help your organization better attain its vision.
Ask about TypeQuest's job-related workshops, using the MBTI and/or Human Synergistics programs. These workshops can also be scheduled on or around weekends, to reduce the time lost from work.
