ABOUT OUR PRESENTER
Robert McAlpine, M.A. (ISTJ), President, Type Resources (TR) www.type-resources.com
Co-author of Intro to Type and 8 Jungian Functions and Journey of Understanding
Bob joined TR in 1993 and his unique approach to dealing with an irate customer (love them to death) is not what you’d expect from a former helicopter pilot in Vietnam.

In fact, Bob’s leadership and extraordinary classroom skills draw on over two decades’ experience as a career military officer, the U.S. Army’s Organizational Leadership and TQM Programs for Executives, experience as a DDI Certified Master Assessor, and graduate research on the MBTI® and Situational Leadership.

He has designed and managed leadership assessment and development programs for hundreds of army officers and qualified hundreds of Type Resources clients to use type theory. Bob is the best kind of teacher, the kind who models the lesson. Bob models for us how to get to know our shadow side and take responsibility for it.
