			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TypeLabs, a leading provider of online personality type resources and training, today announced the launch of a new online seminar &#8220;Transformational Leadership and Analytical Psychology&#8221; presented by Steve Myers, creator of the Management Team Role-indicator. &#8220;Research consistently shows that Transformational Leadership is more effective that other forms of leadership.&#8221; Myers said. &#8220;This new seminar is designed to show why practitioners need to move beyond psychological type to the alchemy of the unconscious in order to transcend the realms of Transactional and Transformational Leadership.&#8221;<span id="more-458"></span></p>
<p>The seminar will be presented live on January 26, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. &#8212; 2:30 p.m. EST. The seminar is affordably priced at a special reduced price of $79 per attendee.</p>
<p>&#8220;At TypeLabs, our goal is to provide our customers with exceptional value through access to on-demand expert content and resources.&#8221; said Kris Kiler, President of TypeLabs. &#8220;This seminar will be of interest to any type practitioner looking to get deeper into understanding transformational leadership.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the last 30 years James MacGregor Burns&#8217; Transformational Leadership has become the most important and widely used leadership model in organisational, political, social and cultural development. Whilst making no assumptions about participants&#8217; prior knowledge of Transformational Leadership, Steve Myers will introduce a distinctive perspective based on C.G. Jung&#8217;s analytical psychology, which will make this webinar of interest to all levels of experience. The webinar will begin by introducing and examining the concepts of transformation in Burns&#8217; and Jung&#8217;s theories. Steve will show why practitioners need to move beyond psychological type to the alchemy of the unconscious in order to transcend the realms of Transactional and Transformational Leadership. He will discuss the unique insights offered by analytical psychology that suggest the use of strategies complementary to those used in mainstream transformational leadership development. He will include practical examples and discuss implications for practitioners in leadership coaching and development.</p>
<p><em><strong>Objectives: </strong></em><br />
-	To establish a basic understanding of the concepts of transformation in Burns&#8217; and Jung&#8217;s theories<br />
- To position psychological type and Jung&#8217;s approach to alchemy within the framework of transactional and transformational leadership<br />
- To explore the process of transformation within analytical psychology and how it affects and is affected by relationships between leader and follower(s)<br />
- To identify practical steps that can be taken to promote transformation in individuals and organisations through leadership development</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are very excited to announce a new ebook to the Typexchange website &gt;</p>
<h2>Let’s Split the Difference: Your Guide to Clarifying the Differences between Similar Types by Susan Nash</h2>
<h3>Exclusive &#8211; You can only purchase this ebook on Typexchange!<span id="more-431"></span></h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Let’s Split the Difference: Your Guide to Clarifying the Differences between Similar Types." href="http://www.typexchange.com/products/Let%E2%80%99s-Split-the-Difference%3A-Your-Guide-to-Clarifying-the-Differences-between-Similar-Types..html">Buy this book now!</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Description:</span></span></p>
<p>Every year, many thousands of people use the knowledge of psychological type (as described  initially by Carl Jung in 1921) to raise individual awareness, increase leadership effectiveness, build team cohesiveness and provide support to the coaching process.</p>
<p>Most people access these concepts using an assessment tool called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) which provides a “four-letter Type” (E/I, S/N, T/F, J/P) that describes an individuals preferred way of gathering information and making decisions.</p>
<p>Often individuals struggle with selecting their ”best-fit” type using only this assessment tool because of  the difficulties in distinguishing between innate and learned behaviours.</p>
<p>To help in the sorting process, it is helpful to use the four lenses of type:</p>
<ul>
<li>Function-attitudes: what are the information gathering and decision making preferences?</li>
<li>Hierarchy of functions: how do these cognitive processes manifest for your personality type?</li>
<li>Temperament: what are your core needs and what pattern of values, talents and behaviors do you identify with?</li>
<li>Interaction Style: how do you engage with others to get your core needs met and what pattern of aims, beliefs, energy and appearance do you most identify with?</li>
</ul>
<p>This book includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>An overview of the four lenses of type</li>
<li>Comparisons between different types</li>
<li><span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 7pt;"> </span>Resource guide for further information</li>
</ul>
<p>This book has been designed as a resource for trainers, consultants, coaches, and leaders to help individuals assess their best-fit type, and thereby have greater access to their innate talents.</p>

<p>CPP is running a special promotion in response to the free assessment offered on Facebook that got immediate attention from Facebook users as well as from CPP. This assessment initially seemed to be passing itself off as the MBTI as well as &#8220;borrowing&#8221; graphics from the MTR-i (team role instrument based on the 8 cognitive functions).</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s an excerpt from their post&#8230;. <a href="http://bit.ly/2wS1th" target="_blank"></a><span id="more-257"></span></p>
<p>**********</p>
<div id="billboard">
<h1>Welcome <strong>Facebook</strong> users!</h1>
<p>We&#8217;re CPP, and we&#8217;re the publisher of the authentic <strong>Myers-Briggs<sup>®</sup></strong> (<strong>MBTI<sup>®</sup></strong>) personality assessment.  We recognize you may have recently taken a free <em>&#8220;What&#8217;s Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type?&#8221;</em> Facebook app.  This imitation quiz was not created nor endorsed by CPP.</p>
</div>
<p>************</p>
<p>This is a great opportunity to take the MBTI for $20!  While the feedback process isn&#8217;t quite ideal &#8211; it is still the MBTI. As an affiliate of the MBTI Complete site, I definitely recommend you take advantage of this limited deal.</p>
<p>Go take the MBTI online now &gt; <a title="Take the MBTI Online" href="http://bit.ly/2wS1th">http://bit.ly/2wS1th<br />
</a> (note that this is *not* an affiliate link and I make no money from you taking the MBTI through this link. You can always go to Typexchange and get your type description or purchase an ebook or 2 after you&#8217;ve take the instrument :)  &#8211; <a title="MBTi Type Descriptions" href="http://www.typexchange.com/categories/Type-Descriptions/">http://www.typexchange.com/categories/Type-Descriptions/</a></p>
<p>Cheers to your success!</p>
