Much of this workshop was refresher for me. Identifying and relating to personality types
was similar to other tools I am familiar with. A few years ago I was introduced
to “True Colors” by Carolyn Kalil which I found very similar. This workshop got me thinking about the
importance of communication, and how to effectively communicate- with my co-workers,
my peers, and my boss. An aspect of management
that could be explored more is how to get people to do what you want them to do
when you have no “managerial” authority over them. Another management workshop
could be more on managing your boss and managing your peers.

Marilyn,
Thank you for your post!
I'd recommend reading Dan Pink's new book, "To Sell is Human." This book is all about how to get others to do what when you don't have any managerial say over them.
I think your point about managing your boss and peers is well taken and without having done any research into the matter, I suspect it all comes down to our good friend, communication. However, it's something I'll keep on my radar!
