Elizabeth was a keynote speaker at the APTi XVII Biennial Conference in Baltimore July 2007. |
| Speakers subject at pre-conference: The Murphy-Meisgeier Type Indicator for Children (MMTIC) Like the well-known MBTI, the MMTIC™ is a self-report assessment of psychological type. Although the two instruments share the same theoretical approach to understanding personality, first proposed by Carl Jung and further developed by Isabel Myers, the MMTIC instrument is designed for elementary, middle and high school. This valuable tool gives educators, administrators, counsellors, parents, teenagers, and children valuable insights and has profound implication for both early learning success and lifelong healthy type development and use. A new version of the instrument and revised MMTIC Manual have just been launched, reflecting significant improvements in assessment, administration, and interpretation. By attending this program, delegates will learn to recognize how type development evolves through the developmental stages of childhood through adolescence, explains type concepts to children in a way they can understand and use, and identifies effective instructional and parenting strategies for children of all types.

| Speakers subject: Type in the training room How may a trainer’s personal type preferences help and / or hinder the learning potential of participants in their learning programmes? How do you adjust your teaching and give support to everyone, in all learning environments, even if the teaching is on-line and the classrooms are virtual? As trainers or teachers, how do we make sure that our own type preferences don’t restrict our ability to support the learning needs of our students and trainees? How do we design learning interventions that ensure effective learning for all individuals? With experience, teachers and trainers learn to incorporate a variety of learning approaches and activities into the training room (or classroom, real and now virtual). Discover which learning techniques work best for your audience in formal or work-based learning contexts. See how you can reduce blind spots. | |

| Speakers subject: Five Lenses of Coaching Linda Berens have prepared an exciting workshop about how you achieve effective, sustainable results in your coaching approach if you work with different lenses of type. No matter what your coaching approach is, you will be more effective if you use more than one lens and you have a solid knowledge of each of the 16 types as a whole. Each of the sixteen types can be understood through five different lenses: 4 dichotomies, whole type, temperament, Interaction Styles, and Cognitive Dynamics. Each lens, built on a different model, brings out different information to work with. Each model brings different information to our understanding of type as well as to resolving different problems and achieving different results. | |

Vibeke S. Bruhn (Denmark)
 | Vibeke S. Bruhn, MA Psychology, has worked intensively with the practical use of typology since 1991 – particularly as a method to support development processes in individuals, groups and organisations. She works primarily on individual coaching processes and as a process consultant and she also lectures at internal company management development courses. The leading element is change and the existential challenges involved in change. |
| Speakers subject: Valuable Changes as We Travel through Life Vibeke S. Bruun focuses on C.G. Jungs work on psychological type, the individuation process and the underlying archetypes that expose themselves as we travel through life. Besides focusing on the possibilities and pitfalls as we develop our type and functions you will be introduced to the dilemmas of the post-modern society: ”You can almost have it all – but at the same time it’s difficult to slow down and focus so that you can figure out what you really want”. In other words: It suddenly seems very important to engage in reflections about identity and integrity – and make some choices along the way. And this makes us feel very special – if we were the first man on the moon. | |
Thor Ødegård (Norway)
 | Thor Ødegård is manager at Optimas and introduced the MBTI to the Norwegian market in 1994, and worked with this instrument until 2000. In 2001 Optimas created the Jungian Type Index (JTI). The JTI uses the same language and the same typologies as the rest of the typology community. It is translated into 11 languages, and is a market leader in Norway and probably in Denmark, less than a year after it was introduced. |
| Speakers subject: Conflict and type Thor Ødegård, who has worked with over 80 conflicts, has prepared a workshop focusing on how to cut the time solving conflicts dramatically by applying the theory of type dynamics. When tensions run high, and you have a serious personal conflict, it is not advisable to use either the JTI, or other instruments, simply because the persons involved will be too suspicious to engage in an activity they will perceive as dangerous. When a leader has unconsciously accepted that it’s the environment that has taken charge, he/she begins to apply defensive strategies. When others set the rules, it’s very hard to be offensive. By understanding how the mental functions interact, it’s possible to create a diagnostic tool to determine whether the individual is still in the reach of a dynamic interplay between the dominant and auxiliary function, or if he/she has stopped using the auxiliary function, thus turning the dominant function into a one sided mental function. | |
Georg M. Stüer (Germany)
 | Georg M. Stüer has worked as a trainer and coach since 1993. He has used typology since 1996 as well as Transaction Analysis. His customers are BMW as well as EXXON, E.ON, Sanofi Aventis and others. George has been a member of the board of the DGAT, the German Association of Typologie for 8 years, and as a freelancer George lives in Berlin. |
| Speakers subject:Typology in coaching During the work as a coach the most important part may be the beginning, when we search for the true reason of coaching - the deeper reason for the client to ask for help. We call this the contract-work. Sometimes this chapter of our work lasts two or three sessions and it´s always very severe for the client. Often he offers us a lot of secondary reasons trying to avoid specifying the true matter. And then she or he starts to feel the pressure. And now the client goes deeper into his preferences what we can notice as trained observers. Sometimes the inferior function may take over. | |
Jo Maddocks (UK)
 | Jo Maddocks is a Chartered Occupational Psychologist and Director of JCA in the UK. Having used personality and cognitive tools for over 10 years, Jo recognised a ‘missing link’ in their application often expressed as the ‘so what’ factor. Over the last 8 years Jo has co-developed a model and tools for how we can make best use of our personality and intelligence through the use of Emotional intelligence which he has applied widely within the business and education sectors. |
| Speakers subject: A Theoretical and Applied Link between Type and Emotional intelligence Jo Maddocks is focusing on Emotional Intelligence (EI) and how to map the framework of EI onto the Jungian type preferences and show how type dynamics may indicate a possible order of strength in the four parts of EI. Emotional Intelligence is an established concept that is frequently applied alongside type instruments for people development and change. Connections made between the two approaches have tended to look at the overlap between EI scales and type preferences but no theoretical link explaining how they are related has yet been made. He will be focusing on two core differences between EI and type; that EI is about competence - type is about preference, and EI is changeable – type is ‘relatively’ fixed. This then leads us to explore how EI and type are interdependent and when used in combination can provide a more powerful approach for personal development. | |
Roy Childs (UK)
 | Roy Childs is Managing Director of Team Focus, an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society and a Chartered Occupational Psychologist. He has been working in organisations at senior levels for more than 20 years and the main thrust of his work involves developing capability and building relationships – usually in a leadership context. |
| Speakers subject: Relational Intelligence and Current Leadership Thinking Roy Childs will explore the bridge between Emotional Intelligence, Relational (or Social) Intelligence and Leadership. The theme is that EI is too much of an “eclectic collection of wishlist competencies” that represents a wide range of ideas at different levels of complexity. EI has too much on an individual focus when leadership is really a phenomenon in the space between individuals. It therefore, necessarily, misses key elements of the Leadership Challenge, which can be usefully integrated into a body of thinking. Roy will outline some of this criticism and present a map for navigating this important terrain in a flexible way. It will include how to integrate different models, including Psychological Type, into the process of leadership development. | |

Anne Buchanan (Netherlands)
 | Anne is a behaviour specialist, with a background in large international organisations. Her main focus is on culture and the way different cultures interact, both as subcultures within organisations, and as national cultures working within the framework of an organisation. Founding member of Iridata, since September 2007 Anne is affiliated with Insights in Benelux as Senior Consultant. |
| Speakers subject: The new generation of Insights Discovery Current research will result in a new instrument, which will reflect to a greater degree the interaction of the four functions and two attitudes. The basis of the research is linked to two aspects of Jungian typology: the attitude of the auxiliary function, and the concept of type mobility. The new Insights Discovery measures attitudinal functions directly, i.e. the four functions paired with the introverted or extraverted attitude, this has demonstrated that the auxiliary function does not always have the opposite attitude of the dominant. Another outcome of the research is that personality type is not always stable – we sometimes shift on a path, which is relatively predictable. | |
Andrew M. Lothian (Scotland)
 | Andrew M. Lothian (Andi) is Founding Director of Insights Learning & Development - the culmination of an unusual and diverse career. The Insights Discovery System first evolved in 1997 with the incorporation of the pioneering personality theories of the Swiss psychologist Dr Carl G Jung. Insights Discovery offers participants heightened individual and organisational self-awareness, and a platform to re-build interpersonal relationships combining the essence of the 'Intelligences' - Mental, Emotional and Spiritual. |
| Speakers subject: The new generation of Insights Discovery A highly interactive methodology of delivering knowledge of Jung's Psychological Types, Discovery workshops are created around a floor mandala mat. The mandala experience heightens awareness of differences between stable, and mobile types. The latter aspect of self development - type mobility - offers the potential of assisting individuals along their journey of individuation. Participants experience energy flowing from the attitudinal-functions (AFs) related to the priority and intensity of their own unique pattern of eight AFs. In completing the Discovery Instrument in advance of the event (Insights Discovery New Generation Workshop questionnaire on-line), each workshop delegate will receive a comprehensive Discovery personal development profile; together with the intensity of all eight of their attitudinal-functions including the inferior attitudinal-function. During the workshop, participants will test the outcomes of the Discovery Instrument against their current knowledge and experience of psychological type. | |

Marti, an Introvert, has been married to her Extravert husband for 42 years. |
| Speakers subject: Mind the Gap: How to Close the Gap Between Introverts & Extroverts The hard wiring of the brain and the physiology of the nervous system predisposes people towards introversion or extroversion. This impacts much more than how we like to socialize. Current neuroscience research reveals that “Innies” and “Outies” restore energy, communicate, process information, make decisions, handle stress, pay attention, socialize and interact in opposite ways. Introverts enter into relationships, jobs, educational institutions and counseling with expectations placed upon them generally designed for extroverts. Extroverts expect introverts to behave and interact as extroverts! During this session, you will learn about innie and outie temperaments that will help make sense of the different behaviors and attitudes. You will be able to validate your preference(it might surprise you), develop a deeper understanding of the underlying hard-wired physiology, gain the ability to spot Innies and Outies, learn how to “speak” their language and gain a deeper appreciation of the distinct advantages of each. | |
