A good way to bring these lenses to life is to set them up by marking out a type table on the floor and having people stand in their type area. This is known as a living type table.  \nThe exercise uses the process lens, focusing on the type table’s four columns: ST, SF, NF and NT. This way of looking at the type table fits most closely with type theory. These combinations are particularly important in looking at communication issues (ask people to ignore E–I differences) .  \nMaterials required  \n- Flipchart paper and pens (one per group)  \nInstructions  \nApplications  \n-Communication  \n- Selling  \nType preferences studied  \n-Sensing, Intuition, Thinking and Feeling  \nTime required  \n-30 minutes  \n-Put one piece of flipchart paper in each corner of the room, labelled ST, SF, NF and NT.  \n- Split people into these four process pair groups.  \n\n| ST\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>SF\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>NF\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>NT |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Specific information | Specific information | Vision | Vision |\n| Logistical analysis | People/values\u003Cbr>orientated | People/values\u003Cbr>orientated | Logistical analysis |\n\nYou can use these high-level description as clues on your flipchart paper, or refer your participants to other resources.  \n-Ask groups to design a poster to appeal to their opposite process pair grouping:  \n(ST  NF) (SF  NT)  \nThe poster might advertise something relevant to the group, or an organized social event, such as a company picnic.  \n-Ask each group to present to their opposite group, at whom the communication is aimed.  \n[www.themyersbriggs.com](www.themyersbriggs.com)  \nMBTI® Step I™ Exercise | Type and communication   \n-Ask the group that is being influenced to comment on the effectiveness of the communication. Ask what this ‘target’ group liked and what worked for them, plus one thing they would change to make the poster more appealing to them.  \nDebrief  \nUse the functional pairs posters and the following points to debrief the exercise.  \nSTs may:  SFs may:  \n-value specific information (e.g. Where/what is the event? What time? What will happen? How do I get there? Who do I contact? Are there any contingency plans?)  \n-value Sensing experience (colour, food, attractive presentation will appeal – often overlooked by Intuition types!)  \n-be annoyed by too much or false information (e.g. Intuitive types ‘grabbing’facts and figures out of the air) .  \n-value specific information (as for STs, but with particular interest in ‘who’ questions)  \n-value personal service where loyalty is emphasized  \n-be annoyed by false information (e.g. Intuitive types ‘grabbing’ facts and figures out of the air), impersonal treatment or lack of trust and warmth.  \nNTs may:  NFs may:  \n-value an appealing and intriguing concept  \n-enjoy a problem-solving element or ‘puzzle’in communications  \n-want the communication to reflect competence and not to insult their intelligence or competence  \n-want to help design whatever it is and will want only enough information or intrigue to decide whether to involve themselves.  \n-value an appealing and intriguing concept  \n-enjoy human or personal communications  \n-respond to a communication that appeals to their personal values and vision for the future  \n-be annoyed by excessive detail and impersonal treatment.  \nFurther reading  \n-MBTI Communication Style Report  \n-Introduction to Type and Communication, Donna Dunning, 2003  \n-Using Type in Selling, Susan Brock, 1994  \n-FLEX Talk®: Practical Communication Skills Using Personality Type, Judy Allen, 2002  \n-TheArt of Speedreading People: Harness the Power of Personality Type and Create What You Want in Business and in Life, Paul Tieger and Barbara Barron-Tieger, 1998.  \n[www.themyersbriggs.com](www.themyersbriggs.com)  \n© Copyright 2016, 2020 The Myers-Briggs Company and The Myers-Briggs Company Limited.
