Make every training session an exhilarating and meaningful exercise with Just My Type. A fun, dynamic card game based on Jung’s four personality types:

  • Extraversion/introversion
  • Sensing/intuition
  • Thinking/feeling
  • Judging/perceiving

Just My Type also offers participants the opportunity to discuss how behavior preferences impact their relationships with others. They then use these tips to discover how they can work together more effectively.

How It Works

Cards are divided into four "suits," representing the four personality dimensions. For example, a "thinking card" might contain the word "logical." Players are randomly dealt several cards from each suit.

To fashion a hand that best captures their personality style, players trade and discuss cards. After the game, participant workbooks provide an overview of personality types, short activities, and instructions for generating and discussing an optional team profile.

Uses and Applications

The primary objective of Just My Type is to provide trainers with a fast and fun method for learning how behavior impacts employee relationships. Playing the game provides an opportunity to discuss each preference so teams can work more effectively and productively.

Use Just My Type:

  • As an ice breaker or introduction to any workshop
  • To provide a quick and effective introduction to personality type theory
  • As a highly educational and experiential activity within a workshop
  • To develop team cohesiveness through awareness and acceptance of individual preferences

Learning Outcomes
