MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 28, 2007 – CPP, Inc. (www.cpp.com), an industry leader in research, training, and organizational development tools including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) instrument, announced that its co-president Jeff Hayes will be a guest speaker for the American Management Association (AMA) Webcast “Who Are You? Assessment Instruments and What They Can Tell You”. Hayes will share insights from his 20 years in the organizational development industry and discuss the increasing popularity of assessments such as the Myers-Briggs® instrument for building leadership competencies, increasing employee engagement and retention, enhancing team productivity, and improving the bottom line.
“By understanding your personality type preferences, you’ll gain powerful insight into more effective and persuasive communication techniques, better decision making, and improved conflict management skills,” said Hayes. “For organizations, assessments provide objective insight into the workforce that can lead to more productive teams, superior succession planning, and better career decisions based on interests.”
