Learn to use the Berens CORE™ Approach with the powerful Essential Motivators lens that is…

• • • A framework that quickly identifies deep, core motivations and talents to inform important life decisions and awareness
    • Built on the wisdom of many great thinkers that go back over 25 centuries, articulated as ‘Temperament’ by David Keirsey in the 1980’s, and enriched by Linda Berens
    • A way of understanding ourselves and others that helps build self-esteem and positive regard
    • An elegant, solid theory of individual differences that integrates with the 16 Jungian based personality types

Berens CORE is the transformational, growth producing method that leads to honoring diversity and wholeness. It integrates well grounded frameworks of CORE Personal Patterns (aka ‘types’) and development.

Technology:

We will be using the user friendly Zoom platform for our live, online discussions and another online platform where your course materials will be available to you. You will do best using a computer or a larger ipad so visuals display large enough to read easily. Your experience will be better if you have the bandwidth to turn on video so you can see other participants in our breakout groups. You will need a headset with microphone to keep external noise down and you can participate more freely. You will receive all the technical information you need when we send you the links to log in.
