How Well Do You Know the People Around You?
We love to know more about ourselves. In fact, personality assessments can be a lot of fun! That is the reason, our shape assessment is so popular! Have you taken it yet? If, not you can access it here
It’s very useful to know your dominant shape because that knowledge helps you understand your own thoughts, emotions, behaviour, triggers and expectations. It helps you answer the question, ‘Why do I behave the way I do?”. It helps you experience less frustration with yourself and other people, and work and live more harmoniously at work and in life.
But I’ve noticed that, when I talk about shapes, people instantly start relating the shapes to other people in their life. Has that happened to you? The parent, spouse, ex-boss, friend or mother-in-law, it all starts to make sense!
When I talk about the Psycho-Geometrics® shapes at conferences, I notice that as I describe each shape, people often start laughing and pointing to someone in the audience, and also talking about it over lunch as they recognize a co-worker’s or boss’s dominant shape immediately.
That is what makes this framework so powerful!
Here are some quick ways in which you can identify each shape. Because knowing someone’s dominant personality style, makes it much easier to communicate with them effectively.
