Introduction
The first step in knowing how to connect more authentically and productively with others is to know oneself.
When people have a clearer sense of themselves - their strengths, their preferences and their challenges - it more fully informs how they can engage with others to cultivate relationships.
The Right Relationship program offers individuals and couples the chance to engage in the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) process to help them:
- more clearly understand and express their personal preferences
- recognize common causes of stress in their lives
- improve their capacity to recognize both similarities and differences with others
- strengthen their communications with others
- have a common language by which to understand themselves and others
Program Sequence
Our program engages people in the established three-step sequence of the MBTI process, with dedicated meeting time provided for each step. The program typically spans three weeks, which gives participants adequate time to understand and engage in each step.

In this introductory meeting, we:
- Establish the scope, purpose, timeline and goals of the program

ESTIMATED TIME: 30 minutes
Session 2: Exploring and Clarifying Your Preferences
In our second meeting we:
- Learn how the MBTI tool offers insights into ourselves
- Invite you to predict your type
- Share the results of your online assessment
- Offer you a chance to compare and discuss your predicted type and your assessed type.
- Introduce function stacks and provide materials by which to explore them in the context of your own personal development.

Session 3: Applications and Implications of Your Type
With your best fit type and function stack established, we can explore how your preferences impact your personal and professional relationships, with aspects that can include:
