Course Description
This free course gives you a clear and simple introduction to how personality affects the way people communicate, respond, and negotiate. It is designed as a taster that helps you understand the basic ideas behind personality styles and how these differences influence everyday interactions. The lessons are practical, easy to follow, and focused on giving you small insights you can start using right away.
You will begin by exploring why personality matters in communication and negotiation. The course explains how recognising patterns in behaviour can help you understand others more accurately and adjust your approach with more confidence.
You will learn the concept of the four colours, a model that groups common behaviour traits in a way that is simple to understand and easy to remember. You will also be introduced to the eight aspects, which give you a more detailed look at how people differ in motivation, thinking style, emotional response, and decision making.
The course includes short exercises that help you notice your own tendencies. These activities encourage self reflection and give you a clearer view of how your personality influences your choices and interactions. You will explore ideas such as inspiration driven behaviour versus discipline driven behaviour, big picture thinking versus practical thinking, and people focus versus outcome focus.
As the lessons progress, you will see how personality awareness supports better negotiation. The course explains how understanding different personality types can help you reduce misunderstandings, communicate with more clarity, and create smoother, more cooperative conversations.
By the end of this taster course, you will have a basic understanding of personality differences and how they shape communication. You will be more aware of your own style and better prepared to adapt to others in everyday negotiation situations.

It was really pleasure to understand the person mind and the smallest hacks and tricks ,while you are negotiating and talking with person in front of you and able to get what you want.The course was quiet beneficial for the people who cannot make an impression on the opposite person ,because of which i can understand the situation which give some satisfaction of overcoming the difficulity of getting embarrased infront of everyone.

I really enjoyed learning a little of the history of personality traits via Hippocrates. A little free knowledge can go a long way, especially when it is well narrated and rationed out as this course is. So far, I would have been willing to pay a dollar or two for it, in the right circumstance, and I'm generally a very cheap person.

What I have learnt in this course is that understanding personality type can help you to understand your preferences and the preferences of other people and how or why these might be different. Personality types are useful for recognising how we lead, influence, communicate, collaborate, negotiate business and manage stress.

I learnt a very big thing as instructor described about 8 aspects of area and last three sessions were very good with deep insight of particular topics covered by faculty It was a great experience with faculty that he taught free lecture. It was a great time to get deep insight about personality development.

Sometimes, a short and simple course is all you need. The information provided will be very useful when dealing with clients in my business. I found it easier to understand than some of the other personality type theories I'm familiar with. Thank you.
By Missy Tiffany Mendoza on 6/25/2018
This course directly confesses personality types and their aspects/examples, so that we can talk/negotiate with others by their personality types, so that our personalities don’t clash with those personality types in negotiation/social situations. That’s how this course is impressive, understanding and honest.

Not only is it going into detail about each subcategory, it is also leaving no rock unturned with each term used and associated with this subject. Every time I think I'm going to need to look something up, the answer is revealed. Great material and very interesting!
By Rayzelle Ellise Santos on 12/3/2017
Course is a little too basic. If you have NO prior idea on different personality types then this course may be interesting for you. However, if you have heard of different personality types (even if they are not the exact things discussed on this course), then the course will feel too basic, too easy and will not add anything of much value to you. On the up side, the instructor speaks well and is very engaging! That's the reason why I managed to complete the entire course even though I feel like I already know what he's talking about.
By William Rodriguez on 11/26/2017
The information in this course is very interesting and allows for many positive outcomes in the negotiation of any subject, deal or matter. It's all about knowing oneself and getting to know the negotiating style of whomever is on the other side of the table...
By Christopher Duncombe-Cooper on 8/4/2017
I know quite a bit about personalities and types but this is explained in a very user friendly way. So far so good. Interesting to learn about colour and negotiation but this was a great refresher for general information. Thank you for offering a free taster course.
