Trainer-Administered Materials
The following materials have been developed for use by trainers (or facilitators, seminar leaders, or team leaders) who are responsible for the design and implementation of trainee-learning experiences. The workshop trainer can design an experience lasting from a half- to a full day, depending on the mix of instruments used and the extent to which trainee participation is desired.

This is the original, basic InQ Questionnaire, designed to be administered to trainees by a trainer. It contains 18 forced-choice items and enables trainees to determine their Styles-of-Thinking scores and construct their Thinking Profiles.

#3023, Recognizing Others' Preferences
This instrument is taken from the Workbook for Recognizing Others' Thinking Profiles (#3021, above). Instead of completing the InQ for yourself, this enables you to complete it for another person, using your knowledge and perceptions of how that person thinks and does things. Ideally, conditions would be such that you could share and discuss your results with that person for confirming or modifying your impressions. By the same token, you can learn how others see you and compare that feedback with your own assessment of yourself. When team members take the time to do this for each other, the feedback and team-development process can be powerful.

Self-Administered Materials for Use by Self-Motivated Individuals 
We present three instruments specially designed for the individual for whom how you think is as important as how you relate. #3001 enables you to administer the instrument to yourself and to interpret the results; #3002 enables you to modify and improve your thinking style; and #3003 enables you to study the thinking styles of others in the effort to better influence them. In addition, we offer #3004, the best-selling paperback book, The Art of Thinking, for self-study.

#3001, Assessing Your Thinking Profile
Knowing your thinking preferences is the first step in improving your skill in influencing others. This self-administered instrument will help you understand the way you think and show you how to avoid the blind spots and pitfalls that are inherent in the strengths or limitations in each of the styles. It includes the basic InQ instrument, as well as information on how to administer it and score it, and interpret the results.

It includes a "Recognizing Others' Preferences Questionnaire" to help you identify the thinking style of the person you are dealing with, as well as providing numerous strategies for influencing that thinking style.
