Because this book involves people and their organizations, the list of those to whom we are indebted for their contributions could be endless, comprising hundreds of companies and thousands of individuals. We will refrain, however, and acknowledge only those individuals and organizations that deserve special recognition and thanks.
Susan Scanlon gave us license to borrow freely from her fine newsletter, The Type Reporter, the results of which appear among the boxes throughout this book. Her generosity has been a valuable contribution.
This book, like its predecessor, Type Talk, would not have happened without the efforts of Joel Makower. He is an unending resource who has a talent for crafting our rambling thoughts into the readable and intelligible work that follows. Sometimes encouraging, sometimes confronting and directing, but always pursuing excellence, Joel has been the driving force behind this project.
The people at Dell Publishing have been very supportive and insightful. Initially Bob Miller, then Jody Rein and Isabel Geffner, provided necessary guidance. Thanks to Andrea Nicolay for her guidance and support for this revised edition.
Two other clusters of people deserve special note. The first provided personal vignettes, which served as useful illustrations. Included in this group are W. Brendan Reddy; Chum Robert, an associate; Cline Frasier; John Orr; George R. McAleer, Jr.; and Tom Kaney.
The second group involves those who have read and commented on the manuscript, or some part of it. John D. Adams provided great help in the chapter on stress. Cal Voss, Chaplain Vincent Guss, and Marjorie Kelly, editor of Business Ethics magazine, offered their insights on the ethics chapter. John Clemons, of Hartwick College, along with James H. Johnson, James Sebolka, Andrew Ackerman, Janne Albertsen, Edvard Borbye, Vibeke Bruhn, and Mike Esnard, all read and reacted to the manuscript, providing valuable feedback.
So many of our clients have supplied data as well as the illustrative material. Over the years they have willingly allowed us to use them as guinea pigs as we together developed various interpersonal configurations aimed at growth, development, and increased organizational awareness. Among those organizations are American Telephone & Telegraph, Alza Corporation, Beatrice Hunt-Wesson, Bell Atlantic, AT&T Bell Laboratories, Cigna Corporation, Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Equitable, Hoechst Celanese, General Electric, Hughes Aircraft, ManuLife Financial, McDonnell Douglas, SmithKline Beecham, Sovran Bank, Westinghouse Corporation, Martin Marietta, and the war colleges of the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, and Department of Defense.
Chances are, if you and your company have been involved with us over the past years, some part of you is reflected in the pages that follow. For that we are eternally grateful.
O.K. and J.M.T.
Falls Church, Virginia
It is so refreshing to look at our personalities in a way that helps us to understand one another with a credible and appreciative approach to our differencesto focus not on the right or wrong ways of being or behaving, but rather on understanding how our individual preferences impact ourselves and others.
