Why Learn About Personality
Every day, you have to interact with yourself as well as other people in your family, work, and romantic relationships. Each of them has a unique personality.
People are different, and it can be challenging to understand other perspectives because you see the world through the lens of your own particular personality.
Although personality differences can be frustrating, they are important. Each personality type is evolved to solve a different kind of problem. Humans cooperate in societies by solving many kinds of problems together, through these diverse personality types.
Through this course, you can learn to understand yourself and others better, and to more effectively cooperate with other people.
