Insights

In group cultures, where community and connection are more important than individuals, giving praise to one person, even if their contribution was indeed the greatest, is not welcomed. It embarrasses both the recipient and others. Positive feedback can also be a trap depending on the culture in which it is given. It’s easy to make […]
“What’s the point of deliberating and beating around the bush? The point is simple and everyone can see it: it is badly done and needs to be corrected.

Trivia

# # #
Does our personality change over the course of our lives?
Research by Markey and Tinsley in 2004 shows that personality traits are relatively stable from preschool to adulthood. However, with age, agreeableness and conscientiousness increase, and neuroticism decreases.
# # #
Inheritance of personality traits
According to research, we inherit a lot of personality traits. And so it is believed that 54% of us inherit extraversion, 49% conscientiousness, 48% neuroticism, and 42% agreeableness. The research dates back to 2003 and was performed on twins.

Temperament vs. Personality
The debate over what is temperament and what is personality is still ongoing. However, one can risk saying that “temperament is a non-verbalized personality”, i.e. temperament and personality describe similar or the very same features. Temperament is anchored in the biochemical system of the brain, and personality is a socio-cultural product built on temperament.

School classrooms are becoming an increasingly diverse environment. Immigration and individualization are just two of several factors exacerbating this phenomenon.

Em teaches schoolchildren communication skills.
Intensive relationship building, developing interpersonal skills and learning the art of communication are all necessary when at school. Unfortunately, the curriculum usually does not support these skills. If the school deals with this topic, it’s not in the form of systematic classes that would constantly improve skills in this area. As a result, young people […]

This process will not go smoothly without the buy-in from young people themselves and making them aware of the diversity of personality types, characters and cultures. School counselors and school psychologists play a key role in […]
