Many behavioral psychologists have researched the theory that people’s behavior can be roughly classified in four groups, represented as quadrants.

This course helps people understand the four dominant personality styles:

• Driver
• Expressor
• Amiable
• Analytical.

Each quadrant represents the behavioral styles of people in that group. By recognizing our dominant style and developing the ability to identify traits in others, we can change our behaviors to interact with a wide variety of personalities and tendencies. During the course participants can learn about group dynamics in general, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and harness their efforts towards team goals.

Participants will also discuss the different development stages a group goes through to reach success.
