Book Review by Jack Falt
This CD is something you can listen to in your car while you are waiting in traffic. I listen to this kind of material while I am doing my morning stretching exercises.
The author is Canadian and has a wide background including MBTI® and True Colors®.
The CD seems to mix up the terms “type” and “temperament,” which can be confusing for someone going on to psychological type. The CD begins with describing the purpose of “type.” Then there is a separate track for each of the four colours, describing them in general terms. Then there is a track that focuses on sales and service. The final track gives tips for manager, parents, teacher and spouses. There is a lot of information on the CD and it will take a while to absorb it all.
One thing about this CD that did annoy me was the squealy music they use between tracks. I suppose it is the latest in music styles but I would think that it would be annoying for older people.
I would definitely recommend the CD for any trainer. If you are giving a workshop where money is no object, this would be a great handout. If cost is more of an issue, you might recommend that a company purchase a copy that can be shared by staff. The CD describes the four temperaments but does indicate how to determine ones temperament. So you are not giving away any secrets.
