Applies the world-famous Myers-Briggs personality test for motivating yourself and your colleagues at work. This book joins a long list of titles attempting to reinterpret the classic material on personality types by Peter Myers and Isabel Briggs Myers. The Myers-Briggs test has become a classic way to find out what sort of person you are, particularly in organisational settings. The author goes on, though, to simplify the types and rename them the power player, team player, party player and diplomatic player. The book contains a diagnostic test to help determine one's own personality type. In this case, the emphasis is on professional and organisational situations. What's titled as a way to inspire people at work, also, becomes a series of prescriptions for getting what you want from someone based on his or her personality type. The premise is that people have different emotional and behavioural styles and it pays to know what type you're dealing with, as well as your own type, when trying to influence them.
