THe Power of Polarities
An Innovative Method to Transform Individuals, Teams and Organizations.
Based on Carl Jung's Theory of the Personality.
What explains extraordinary human achievement? When things are achieved against all odds? Whether you are an individual, team or organization, the key to human achievement lies in opening yourself up to introspection: Who am I? What am I good at? What do I want to do with my life? How can I get there? (and if you are a team or organization, just replace "I" with "We").
Next, understand the polarities in the personalities of yourself and others. The secret behind the power of polarities is that paradoxically they are intended to harmonize, not polarize. Their purpose is to balance, not disrupt each other. They then become an infinite inner source of growth and renewal that can be accessed by anyone, anytime, anywhere.
Great achievements are grounded in the ability to harness the power of polarities and cover all the bases of the personality.
This book uses a novel interpretation of Carl Jung’s personality types to help you discover the answers to these questions. It will help you to:
Understand your personality and its development
Thrive in life's significant roles and relationships.
Find the key to your genius
Understand and take responsibility for your limitations
Live your life with intention and have authentic impact
Gain a sense of purpose, meaning and belonging
Change and forge your destiny
Be the best you can at what you do
