About us
You are cordially invited to join us in conversations and meet similar people using Myers Briggs Personality test as a tool. (MBTI is by far the most popular personality test--a free test that takes only 15 minutes to take, and gives you valuable insights into yourself.) Learn from others through conversations in an informal friendly setting. The format is fairly informal. We will divide into a few groups for the conversations, move between groups and enjoy interacting with the many people present. People will be wearing tags identifying their personality types to spur conversations.
We meet on Every Saturday at 3:45pm at Sony Atrium at 550 Madison Avenue at 55th street. We have already had immense success with these Meetups attracting 30+ participants from various Meetup groups for each Meetup. (I also organize The 103 Great Ideas Conversations at 2pm Every Saturday at the same venue, just before this Meetup. See: https://www.meetup.com/The-103-Great-Ideas-...)
We human beings are complex beings--this Meetup is designed to enable participants to explore their own personality through interactions with similar and (and sometimes dissimilar) types, and to thereby learn a little about the nature of personality itself. At each Meetup you will have multiple conversations in different groups, and the format allows participants to interact deeply and learn in their own way regardless of their level of familiarity with personality types.
Meet interesting personalities, Explore your own, and Learn through Meaningful Conversations with many people at each Meetup.

FTI: Workshop: Trump & non trump supporters on Immigration & border security
·OnlineOnlineWe invite Pro Trump and Anti-Trump people alike to join us in researching the topic of the night. We will look for the facts related to the topic, and how the policies of democrats and republicans have influenced it historically. In this unique event, Trump supporters will have the chance to challenge facts put forth by non trump supporters, and vice versa - Once we’ve put forth the facts by each side - including any concerns put forth by the other side, we will show the conclusions each side comes to based on their understanding of the facts. Doing this will help us get a clear view of how Trump supporters and non trump supporters see the topic.
Lastly, Garrett will put together a presentation and we will get volunteers to present the trump and non trump perspective on the facts and conclusions the following week.
