We have been doing temperament types today, re-visiting Kiersey, which I originally explored years ago as part of looking at my own personality and learning type in preparation for training. I haven't changed I'm still very much a Guardian, with learnings towards Rationalist. So on this occasion thought I would take a look to see what each temperament means in the training delivery environment and came across the following information:
THE ROLE OF PERSONALITY IN K-12 EDUCATION
Pennock, Anthony J. The Robert B. Miller College & Moyers, Kelly L. The Robert B. Miller College Proceedings of ASBBS Feb 2012, 19(1), p711
"Guardians “speak mostly of their duties and responsibilities, of what they can keep an eye on and take good care of, and they're careful to obey the laws, follow the rules, and respect the rights of others” (www.kiersey.com, n. d., para. 11). It is widely accepted that teachers are typically guardians because “teachers tend to be those individuals that are practical and conscientious, or innovative and comfortable with value/emotion-laden judgments” (Decker & Rimm-Kaufman, 2008)."
Which temperament most matches your style and what is the impact on your training?
