StylePlay
StylePlay is a fast-paced, interactive card game that brings personality theory to life. Based on the work of Carl Jung and others, it helps participants identify and understand four key personality styles: Direct, Spirited, Considerate, and Systematic. With 12 energizing games, StylePlay boosts self-awareness, strengthens communication, and improves teamwork in a fun, nonthreatening way. Use it as a stand-alone activity or pair it with other training to make soft-skills learning more engaging and memorable.
Overview
Overview
Rooted in Carl Jung’s early work, personality style shapes how we behave and interact. StylePlay is a collection of 12 quick and energizing group personality card games that help identify four key styles – Direct, Spirited, Considerate, and Systematic – so individuals and teams can play to their strengths and adapt for better collaboration.
StylePlay is based on the well-known research and personality theories of psychologists Carl Jung, William Moulton Marston, and others. Each personality type game allows participants to identify preferred styles – either their own, those of other participants, or those of famous people.
How It Works
How It Works
Every StylePlay card displays an adjective describing a characteristic that people usually demonstrate in daily interactions. Participants can take part in 12 different card games – or the facilitator can create a new game with the StylePlay cards. Each of the games allows participants to identify preferred styles – either their own, those of other participants, or those of famous people.
StylePlay can be used alone, in combination with any Style Suite title, and with other training products. The Facilitator Guide features a brief overview of the Style Theory that is the basis of the games and the other Style Suite instruments. In addition, debriefing questions and key learning points are provided to help facilitators draw significance and to help participants gain deeper insights.
