Coaching with Personality Type: What Works Summary

Coaching with Personality Type: What Works by Jenny Rogers

Most coaches know that Personality Type indicators can add enormous value to their work. Based on the work of the distinguished Swiss psychologist, Carl Jung, questionnaires such as the MBTI (R) and its many rivals can give clients swift, deep, unsettling and reliable insights into their own behaviour and needs. Yet many coaches hesitate, asking questions such as:

* Do I know enough about it to use it confidently?
* Where does it add value in work with senior leaders?
* Where can it be useful when I'm working with a client on career issues?
* What should I do when a client challenges me on validity and reliability?
* What other psychometric assessments might I use and how do they complement Type indicators?
* How should I use it with groups, for instance on management development programmes?
* How does it work as part of a team coaching project?

This book will build your confidence. It gives you honest, straightforward, practical and realistic advice on these and other issues, from an author who is internationally recognised as a leading thinker and practitioner in executive and team coaching, as well as being an expert on Jungian Type. The book is enriched by dozens of short case studies.

How can anyone resist? 'Coaching for Personality Types' is a well written, accessible and stimulating book from one of my favourite coaching authors.
Professor Jonathan Passmore, School of Psychology, University of Evora & Centre for Coaching, Henley Business School, UK

A masterclass in the area - while there are plenty of type introductions around, this is the best for practising coaches by a long way.
Ian Florance, Consultant Editor, Meyler Campbell and Secretary European Test Publishers Group, UK

As an extraordinarily well-written guide to assist both beginners and veteran coaches in the use and interpretation of the MBTI, Rogers' book has much to recommend it, and I do so wholeheartedly.

Neville Osrin, Emeritus Fellow, University of Exeter Business School, UK

I believe Jenny's book to be essential reading for anyone interested in using any psychometrics in their coaching -- or in their work generally.
Rev. Dr. Rodney (Rod) Woods, Senior Minister, City Temple London, UK

I recommend it to all coaches as essential reading.
Julia Vaughan Smith, Action Researcher/Writer/Workshops and Retreats

Jane Cook, Head of Coaching and Leadership, Linden Learning Ltd

Jenny's depth of knowledge and experience in this field shines through in this book.
Sandy Oosthuysen, NHS Asst. Director of Organisation Development and coach, UK

From the title onwards it works! An invaluable companion for novice and experienced coaches alike.
