Replying to LO24323 --
Dear all,
Gavin's talk over the instruments to know the profiles of people reminded
me of the Body Type Test that I came across in www.chopra.com
I believe that it is inconclusive to know people only by their
psychologoical frames. Knowing something about their bodies make so much
sense.
I also believe that HR professionals need to know about the mind body
connections too to help people become effective.
