What we’re about
CELEBRATING 10 YEARS IN 2025!
This is a group for everybody who would like to understand more about themselves and those they live or work with - through sharing with others.
Maybe you would like to know why your kids always clash, or why your partner is so sensitive... or not sensitive enough. Maybe you would like to know why you or somebody you love never seem to fit in. Maybe you want to know why you have chosen a certain profession. Maybe you just want to share what you know about personality types or learn what others know.
The cartoon on this page represents two people reaching out to each other over an invisible wall. This invisible wall symbolizes the communication problems, clashes and misunderstandings that result from our inborn natural type differences. Our group aims to help people reach out through understanding the different personality types.
The key is that once we understand that we are not all alike, we can open our minds to sharing rather than judging each other and learn to celebrate our differences. The main focus of this group is on understanding the 16 psychological types first described by Carl Jung and made popular by Myers-Briggs and David Keirsey, but with some adjustments that bring it from just descriptive accounts of our differences in which you know your "typename" to a deeper understanding of what goes on inside us that makes us so different in one way and so alike in another.

Meet a type + 10th anniversary celebration
Thistle Hall, 293 Cuba Street, Wellington, NZJoin us to see out the year as we celebrate our 10th anniversary! (The group's first ever meetup was in December 2015.) And meet a type... The session will consist of conversations 'speed dating-style' so you can meet a range of types and see how they differ from one another - as well as the difference within the same type: one ENFP is not the same as another. Or perhaps you've rarely sat down and talked with someone who is the same type as you...
Food, drink and great conversation. Bring a plate of finger food to share. (We'll sort drinks.)
We're in the upstairs hall for this end-of-year session.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
VENUE + KOHA
We're in the upstairs hall this time. Enter at the side of the building on SH1/Arthur Street (around the corner from Cuba St) and head up the stairs. (There is also a lift, if needed.)We ask for a koha, or donation, to help cover the venue costs.
FINDING OUT YOUR TYPE
If you'd like to get an idea of your type ahead of the session, these questionnaires below might help. (You’ll see the results of the questionnaire - their best guess as to your type, based on your answers - and you can choose to provide your email address for more info, however, you certainly don’t have to; you might simply have to scroll down past that part or click ‘Skip this step’.)https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/5dab0e69919f5e0014ceba9f

Whatever assessment you do, just be sure to remember your four letter ‘typename’ (eg INFJ or ENFP).
