WHAT YOU GET
A 22-Page Report Covering Eight Foundational Sections and Six Development Competencies
The Foundational Sections Each report opens with population and manager representation data, typical strengths, and a type-representative quote, then moves through eight sections written specifically for that type: Basic Habits of Mind, Typical Communication Patterns, General Learning Strategy, Interpersonal Qualities Related to Motivation, Blind Spots, Stress Related Behavior, Potential Barriers to Effectiveness, and Overusing Type Tendencies.
The Development Competencies Six competency-based development areas: Approachability, Taking Charge, Dealing With Conflict, Technical Focus, Drive for Results, and Informing. Each competency opens with a type-specific framing of why that area matters for this type, followed by five to seven behavioral strategies with concrete guidance on what to practice and how.
The Reading List A curated reading list organized by competency for participants who want to go deeper on a specific area.
Effectiveness Data, Not Type Theory
The competency content in YOU Type Effectiveness Reports is not derived from type theory. It is derived from effectiveness research and then translated through the lens of type.
The data comes from the Center for Creative Leadership, one of the most extensive sources of leadership effectiveness research available. The reports were developed by Roger Pearman in collaboration with Michael M. Lombardo and Robert W. Eichinger, whose work on leadership competencies has shaped how organizations develop talent for decades.
The research premise is straightforward: successful and effective people know themselves better than most. The YOU framework maps that effectiveness data onto personality type, so the behavioral strategies in each report reflect not just what someone of that type tends to do, but what research shows moves performance in the specific areas where that type most often needs development. A behavioral strategy for Dealing With Conflict means something different for an INFP than it does for an ESTJ. The reports do not flatten those differences. They work from them.
WHO THIS IS FOR
For Practitioners Who Need Type to Go Somewhere After the Debrief
Your type conversations produce recognition but not behavior change.
The YOU Type Effectiveness Reports give you six competency areas with specific behavioral strategies so the coaching conversation has a concrete development agenda, not just a type description to discuss.
Your team workshops need structured follow-up content after the initial type session.
The six competency areas and the Overusing Tendencies sections give you material for follow-up sessions that move teams from type awareness to targeted development.
You need individualized development plans anchored in type, not a generic competency framework applied on top of it.
Each report is written for one type specifically. The strategies reflect how a person of that type processes, applies, and resists change, not how a general population does.
Your clients need to understand how their type shows up professionally, not just personally.
The Blind Spots, Stress Behavior, and Barriers to Effectiveness sections surface patterns that generic career and leadership assessments do not address.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
What Type Descriptions Leave Out
Practitioners who do serious type work deserve a report that goes where coaching conversations go. The consistent limitation of type descriptions is this: participants recognize themselves and then have no clear path from recognition to change. Knowing that INFPs tend toward harmony or that ENTJs lead with decisiveness does not tell anyone what to practice or what to stop doing. When the type conversation stops at description, the practitioner is left building the development bridge from their own expertise and experience, session by session, without a structured resource the participant can return to.The YOU Type Effectiveness Reports were built on the premise that effectiveness is observable and learnable. The competency content is drawn from data on what high performers do differently, then mapped to personality type to show how those behaviors look and feel from inside a particular type’s experience. You stop being the practitioner who delivers a type description and hopes the participant figures out what to do with it. You become the one who hands them a development roadmap written for the way their mind works.
Key Features of YOU Type Effectiveness Reports
16 Type-Specific Reports
One report for each of the 16 Jungian personality types. Each report is written for that type specifically, not adapted from a generic template. The behavioral dynamics, blind spots, stress patterns, and development strategies reflect that type’s cognitive and behavioral tendencies.
Six Development Competency Areas
Each competency area opens with a type-specific framing and includes five to seven concrete behavioral strategies. Strategies are written at the level of specific action, not general principle, and include guidance on what to practice, what to watch for, and how to build the behavior over time.
Research Foundation From the Center for Creative Leadership
The effectiveness data underlying the competency content draws from Center for Creative Leadership research, grounding the development guidance in evidence about what drives performance, not just type theory.
Overusing Tendencies With Corrective Strategies
A dedicated section addresses what happens when natural strengths become liabilities. Most type tools stop at observation. YOU Type Effectiveness Reports include specific corrective strategies for each overuse pattern, not just identification of the problem.
Competency-Organized Reading List
Each report closes with a curated reading list organized by development competency. Participants who want to go deeper on a specific area have a research-grounded starting point.
No Assessment Required
Reports are generated by type selection, not by completing an additional assessment. You can generate a report for any type from any prior determination, whether from a Core Factors type assessment, another instrument, or a facilitated best-fit process.
