Have you ever wondered why some people just don’t get you? Or ever thought “I cannot even begin to know what my boss needs—even when I ask her, I still don’t know.” Or, “Why am I having such a difficult time getting along with the guy in marketing?”

Most of us have felt that way at one time or another. The good news is that there’s a simple tool designed to help you understand yourself AND other people too.
