Steve Myers' Blog Archive

Welcome to my blog.

A full list of archives is below, sorted into themed categories.

As one might expect with a blog, what I write is a little bit random. However, there is a loose structure in that there are articles on Myers Briggs/Jung Theory that tend to be of general interest or cover the more theoretical side of things. There are articles on Teamwork that share some of my experiences and the lessons I've learned whilst in team building consultancy. Of interest to those starting out in the field, or just looking for some different exercises, there is the Trainers/Consultants Information, which tends to focus on practical team building activities. This section includes some practical guidance on how to use the online questionnaires that are available for use at this website. And finally, there is a News/Miscellaneous/Personal category. In this category I put some more traditional blog stuff: the meaning of life, 42, discussion of the latest knitting fad, that sort of thing.

At the present time (1st half of 2007) I am recuperating from a heart illness (myocarditis). The convalescence plan is that I should be doing very little, which means that I have plenty of time to read and write. Hopefully this means that, for the time being at least, there will be regular, fresh articles.

In addition to the links below, which takes you to specific pages/posts, you can go straight to my latest blog or read what the blog is about. You can also search this blog or the full Team Technology website using the Google facility immediately below right.
