The theory behind the What’s Your FLAVA?® concept, can be traced back to 450 B.C. Hippocrates, who is considered the “Father of Medicine” identified that there are four different types of human beings. During the last century noted psychiatrist, Carl Jung described personality differences as a fundamental basis for understanding human beings. His work, Psychological Type, was translated into English in 1923, it had a profound effect on Katherine C. Briggs. As a result, Briggs and her daughter, Isabel Briggs-Myers, developed the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The Myers-Briggs theory states that much of the random variation in human behavior is actually quite orderly. In their work, they identified and characterized sixteen (16) different types of personalities.
These differences create natural barriers to interpersonal communication, making interactions between people of different personality types difficult. The science of What’s Your FLAVA?® is predicated on these historical scientific principles. However, it does not re-invent the science, It improves the methodology. The FLAVA process is simpler and is easier to apply in your life than other personality systems. It's more than just FUN, its FUNctional!
