Product Description: What’s Your Type at Work?
Are you one of those organized people who always complete your projects before they are due? Or do you put off getting the job done until the very last possible moment? Is your boss someone who readily lets you know how you are doing? Or does she always leave you unsure of precisely where you stand? Do you find that a few people on your team are incredibly creative but can never seem to get to a meeting on time? Do others require a specific agenda at the meeting in order to focus on the job at hand?
Bestselling authors Otto Kroeger and Janet Thuesen make it easy to recognize your own type and those of your co-workers in Type Talk at Work, a revolutionary guide to understanding your workplace and thriving in it. fully revised and updated for its 10th anniversary, this popular classic now features a new chapter on leadership, showing you how to be more effective on the job. Get the most out of your employees—and employers—using the authors’ renowned expertise on typology. With Type Talk at Work, you’ll never look at the office the same way again!

Customer Reviews
Enjoyable Reading
I like the book. It's enjoyable and amusing reading. I like the part that each section is not too long so it keeps reader attention so reader does not get bored with the lenghty context. The authors did a good job incooperated amusing examples.

Great for using MBTI in the workplace.
This book is great for using Myers Briggs in the workplace. I used it to accompany a presentation I gave on MBTI. The participants were not very familiar with MBTI - this book talks about the types in a very understandable way and places it into to the context of the workplace. There is also some "type humor" in the book that I used to help break the ice. I looked at several books for this application and am very glad I chose this one.

Typing method flawed
I can't say this to people enough; that MBTI method typing is flawed, because of the following reasons. First, the test you take on typelogic dot com determines you internal self. Myself for example-internally I am ESTJ but in reality I am INFJ (ESTJ is my dual-the person who is the best match for my personality type). Second, as you can see from my example of testing ESTJ my internal dual-seeking self is menefesting outwardly flawing the resaults of the test thereby putting you in a pool of people you wouldn't get along with. For correct resaults-type yourself using How to Find Yourself and Your Best Match Socionics by Rod Novichkov then take the MBTI test and you'll know exactly what I'm taling about.

Good quality book
This book was an excellent look at myself. After I had taken the MBTI this book gave me insight that I otherwise wouldn't have had. It was funny to read quotes made by others who share my typology and saying... oh yeah I've said that. Well written, easy to read. A good resource for anyone looking to expand on their knowledge of the MBTI especially in work relationships.
