What Is Personality Style?

Want to learn how to motivate others, improve communication and relationships at work and at home, reduce conflict and stress, and so much more? Answer a series of questions in about seven minutes in on PersonalityStyle.com and you'll be well on your way.

PersonalityStyle.com helps provide an understanding of the differences in people and is used by many counselors -- marriage, family, pastoral, and others -- to help determine an individual's personality style. Human resource managers and professional consultants use various forms of the same assessment found on PersonalityStyle.com as an aide in hiring, or to develop an effective and cohesive team, in leadership training, and more. The basic premise of the PersonalityStyle.com behavioral system is that by understanding ourselves we are better able to communicate with and, thereby, improve our relationships with others at work, at home and in the community.

Developed by the Institute for Motivational Living, the customized assessments begins with a series of phrases selected by the respondent that describe his or her behavior. The simple 24-question profile takes only about seven minutes to complete. Respondents then receive a “snapshot” report that gives them a look at who they are and how they communicate and are perceived by others. By upgrading to the full version of the report, users receive a 20-page customized report.
