Product Description
Product Resources
The Golden Personality Type Profiler can help a person understand the basis for their decision-making and the way they relate to other people. Other assessments use type-oriented approaches that are too simplistic and make no allowance for the subtle differences between people of the same type. With Golden, not only can you see Jungian 4-letter personality type, but also the subtle facets, that make up that personality type.
You can become Accredited to administer and interpret the Golden through Pearson Academy.
Use Golden to:
- Help guide employees toward better understanding of their own behaviours, attitudes, career goals, and preferences
- Build a solid foundation for team development dialogue
- Understand an individual’s work style relative to others
Applications include:
- Leadership Development
- Coaching
- Communication and Conflict Management
- Team building
- Sales Force Training plus more

- Is geared toward identifying behaviours

Reports
Pearson provides you with two report options for viewing Golden results: Choose the A/Z option to view the “How you approach life” scale with the Adapting vs OrganiZing labels. The A/Z report is great for first-time users of personality type. Choose the J/P option to view the “How you approach life” scale with the Judging vs Perceiving labels. The J/P report is for experienced users of the Myers-Briggs type tool.
The Golden Team Report is now available.
