Description 
To be successful
in this era of rapid change, it is essential to be an effective
life-long learner. This is true for workers as well as students.
We are constantly required to learn new technologies, ideas,
information and ways of doing things. The Quick Guide
to the Four Temperaments and Learning shows you how
to maximize learning in any situation. By learning effectively
you will thrive in work and educational environments where
information and knowledge are highly valued.
Using interactive
checklists, you will identify your learning style and preferences.
Tips customized to your learning style will help you choose
what, when, how, and where to learn. The content is summarized
using a structured learning strategy that, when completed,
documents and focuses your learning. You will see how to
adapt to different learning settings, especially those that
don’t suit your preferences. Leaders, coaches, trainers
and teachers will find practical tips for customizing and
enhancing their interventions. The quick guide is a valuable
resource for both personal learning improvement and facilitating
the learning of others.
