WHERE: Epicentre upstairs, CAULFIELD NTH – details below.

If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition and one of its key features is described as persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts. The symptoms cause clinically significant impairments in social, occupational and other areas of functioning (DSM-5, APA, 2013 pp. 50-51).

• There are approximately 30,000 young adults with ASD in Australia.

• Only 28% of this group complete tertiary courses post school.

• 50% of this group are unemployed.

• Less than half of this cohort has friends.

• 50 -70% of this group suffer from anxiety and depression.

• This group of Australians spend on average 9 hours a day engaged in solitary technology-based activities.

Currently, there are no social skills coaching programs for young adults with ASD in Australia. Neary, P., Gilmore, L., and Ashburner, J. 2015. ‘Post-school needs of young people with high- functioning autism spectrum disorder.’ Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders 18:1- 11.

Code Blue for Autism, was founded by Helen and Michael Whelan in Brisbane, Queensland. Helen has a background in the Creative Arts, Nursing and Michael is a performer, musician, writer, and esteemed academic who has led numerous research projects working with young people with autism.

In 2017, in the absence of any suitable social skill programs for their autistic son, Helen and Michael designed and developed the Chill program for young adults on the autism spectrum. To them, this situation was an ‘emergency’, or in medical terms a ‘Code Blue’. Since then, they have become the industry leaders in this arena.

Links between type and autism will be explored in this fascinating workshop.

TYPE DATA:

Meredith will present the results of her small sample of People with Autism and Aspergers + AHDH who have completed the MBTI inventory. She will also discuss her observations on a number of children/adolescents on the ASD scale.

” 10 people have completed the MBTI and confirmed in discussion. I will be asking our participants to consider their hunches before giving the results. The observation of a number of children has also led to some likely TYPE preferences; as these are relatives there has been extensive observation to draw upon. Russell is also familiar with TYPE and will share his observations of the young people he has been working with,” Meredith Fuller OAM Psychologist

Personality Instruments: what to select and how they can assist
2023-04-13 18:30 - 21:30 (Australia/Melbourne) | The Epicentre, 427 Glen Eira Rd, CAULFIELD NORTH, Victoria, 3161, Australia
Adam Le Good & Rod Winning present Personality instruments, what to select and how they can assist in a practical, useful, fun evening with two top trainers, includes video.

While the focus will be on consultants, Human Resources & Organisational Development & Training and Development professionals who are most likely to be organising these interventions, the session will have applicability for anyone who is curious about what various instruments do and do not do, and how to select according to group needs. Adam and Rod will also provide information about the way that results and familiarity with the instrument’s results may lead to problem solving, coaching, counselling, and training with groups and organisations.

Adam and Rod have a series of videos in production entitled ‘Personality and Behaviour’ explaining that instruments are either essentially personality or behaviour identifiers, behaviour being an outcome of personality and context. The video series will be useful to a wide range of practitioners, students, HR & OD & consultants.

The first episode has been completed. It is a broad level overview which compares the following instruments – MBTI, Herrmann, TMS, Belbin, Enneagram, DISC Advanced. It is not rating them, more looking for areas where they are best suited or perhaps not suited for. They have interviewed practitioners from peak bodies in each of these styles.

From Shadows to Showtime: Moving into the Light - Angelina Bennet
2023-09-01 09:00 - 10:30 (Australia/Melbourne) | Rydges Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, 601 Gregory Terrace, Bowen Hills, Queensland, 4006, Australia
Considering the nature of the shadow, how it is formed and how it can shed light on our untapped potential.

This session is a keynote at the From Shadows to Showtime Conference, 1-2 September in Brisbane. Further details below.

Although the pandemic wasn’t what anyone asked for, being in lock down did give me the opportunity to really tap into my introverted intuition and get creative. What started out as the need to fill a blank wall, ended up as a deep dive into my life stages using collage. The process helped me to see what parts of my personality had been set aside and what my ‘true self’ was about. In this session I will provide some theoretical insights into the nature and formation of the shadow – both the ‘dark’ and ‘light’ shadow – and how we can harness our untapped potential. This session will provide opportunities for participants to consider their own light shadow and is suited to Type users at all levels. In fact, you don’t even need to know about Type.

About Angelina Bennet

Angelina is a Chartered Occupational Psychologist and specializes in developing individuals through personality work. She has an occupational psychology business in the UK offering coaching, development and assessment. She also type qualification training through Type Pro Ltd. Her other areas of interest centre around people development include transpersonal coaching and the Enneagram. She is a past President of BAPT and the author of ‘The Shadows of Type – Psychological Type through Seven Levels of Development.’

Elvis Presley: Exploring the 8 Jungian functions & type development with Mary McGuiness
2023-09-02 13:30 - 14:45 (Australia/Brisbane) | Rydges Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, 601 Gregory Terrace, Bowen Hills, Queensland, 4006, Australia
Explore the life and music of Elvis Presley, his use of the 8 Jungian functions and type development. We will use the work of Gary & Margaret Hartzler to look at differences between poorly developed and well-developed functions.

This session is a keynote at the From Shadows to Showtime Conference, 1-2 September in Brisbane. Further details below.

Enjoy glimpses of the life and music of Elvis Presley as we explore the 8 Jungian functions and the process of personality development. Type theory tells us that we can use all the 8 Jungian functions (cognitive processes), but each type prefers certain functions and struggles to use and develop the others. Gary and Margaret Hartzler in Functions of Type list several skills associated with each of the 8 functions. These skills illustrate why a poorly developed function will be expressed differently to a function that is well developed. By looking at evidence from Elvis’s life, his music and his own words we will try to identify how he used each function, how his use of the functions changed over time, and how the changes were reflected in his music. And we will use the opportunity to reflect briefly on our own use of each function. This session will include theory, storytelling, some brief interaction and reflection, film and, of course music!

About Mary McGuiness

Mary McGuiness ENFP has 30 years’ experience teaching personality theory and training professionals to use the MBTI and MajorsPTI. She is founding Director of the Institute for Type Development, est.1986, providing advanced training for type professionals and consulting to organisations.

Mapping the Shadow: A Type-Based Approach to Shadow Work - Max Chegwyn
2023-10-24 19:30 - 21:00 (Australia/Melbourne) | Online Event
Discover how to integrate the shadow using Type and the Seven Habits of Individuation model. In this presentation we will explore the common ways in which Type maps to Persona-Shadow dynamics and the different practices each Type can use for integration and psychospiritual growth.

Jungian Shadow Work is increasingly being used as a coaching tool. More people are recognising the benefits of integrating deeper aspects of themselves to bring balance to their lives, careers, and relationships. However, the shadow is not something that can be easily captured in a concept or identified independently.In this presentation, we will discuss how Type can be used as a foundation for mapping and integrating the shadow. We will examine the most common ways Type correlates with Persona-Shadow dynamics and how this serves as a valuable tool for identifying shadow material. Finally, we will explore how different classifications of shadow material can be integrated using the Seven Habits of Individuation model.

About Max Chegwyn

Max Chegwyn is a psychospiritual educator and coach dedicated to helping freedom-minded individuals develop self-knowledge. As the curator of the Seven Habits of Individuation model, Max focuses on fostering individuation and psychospiritual growth.

Meeting the needs of parent and child – how is this possible?

AUSAPT is delighted to offer a 4-week program on parenting. Sue Blair will lead you through a fascinating exploration of how Type influences everyday distractions, dilemmas and dramas. How can everyone in a family get their needs met? What shifts can be made to facilitate a positive and rewarding family life? How can you set yourself up to succeed?

This is a valuable opportunity for a small group of parents who are united in wanting to do the best for their children. There is so much that can be done to enhance the parenting experience and improve outcomes for the people we care about the most.

You will learn, laugh and leave enlightened!!!

SessionFocusDate (AEDT)1Meeting the needs of Extraverts and Introverts4 November2Meeting the needs of Sensing and Intuiting11 November3Meeting the needs of Thinking and Feeling18 November4Putting it all together – understanding our stress triggers25 November

Session Details

Session 1: Meeting the needs of Extraverts and Introverts

This session briefly reviews these preferences and then looks more deeply into what it means within the family group. Every family has a different combination and most families need to be bi-lingual in both styles so that the needs of each person can be met. What problems can occur? What happens when parent and child differ? What happens when they are the same? It’s not as obvious as you may think. Being able to adapt is essential. Parents – please remember – you must have your needs met too!

Session 2: Meeting the needs of Sensing and Intuiting

This session looks beyond the usual analysis of Sensing and Intuiting to a new perspective when looking at these functions in combination with the Judging and Perceiving functions. i.e. SJ, SP, NJ and NP. This opens up a whole new vista of diversity. We often don’t realise our natural bias when parenting. Nor do we understand what it feels like to perceive in a different way. We will explore how to spot these differences in your child, how to experience them for yourself and how to understand what’s going on so that, as parents, you can set yourself up to succeed.

Session 3: Meeting the needs of Thinking and Feeling

When it comes to ‘care and support’, which is typically thought to be in the ‘Feeling’ domain, ‘Thinkers’ have very different needs and offer a very different quality of support. This is often misunderstood by the ‘Feelers’. Seeing as parenting is very connected to offering care and support, I think it is a good lens to explore. It can also be a key issue when co-parenting if you are opposite on this dichotomy. As in session two, we will do a deeper dive into how Thinking and Feeling combines with the Judging and Perceiving preferences. This will reveal significant differences which, if understood, can lead to a great deal more harmony in the home.

Session 4: Putting it all together – understanding our stress triggers

Everyone attending will have a different combination of personalities. No two homes are the same! We will take a look at these combinations and see what can be done to make your home life calmer, less stressed and more satisfying. Parenting is the most important role you have in this world. Taking the time to really ‘see’ each of your children and adapt to their needs is your gift to them. Meanwhile, they also need to know that their parents have needs too. At the end of day it would be great if your children say “I was well parented by imperfect parents”. We will never get it perfectly right, but we can feel so much better about it when we absolutely know we did our best. Myers-Briggs gives us the opportunity to understand who we are parenting through the personality type lens. It’s not all you need to know but, my goodness, it’s an enormous help!

Type and Music Preferences with Ian Ball
2023-11-25 13:45 - 16:30 (Australia/Melbourne) | The Epicentre, Caulfield North, Caulfield North, Victoria, Australia
An AusAPT in person event in Melbourne, Victoria

There are many reasons why particular pieces of music attract us and why we go back to those preferences. There are also reasons why particular styles of music are ones we avoid or find unbearable.

In 2006 Elwin Hall and I conducted a workshop at the AusAPT conference exploring these ideas and looked for linkages between one’s preferred type and one’s preferences for music.

This new session reviews the research conducted since then and serves as an update on this theme. The new evidence gives much more confidence about the relationships. There has been a reconceptualisation about music preferences and this will be explained in the session.

It is hoped that participants will have a greater appreciation of the linkages between type and preferences for music with particular attributes. You may be delighted with some live singing!

Nicholas Toko will present on the personality organisation of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) and the personality disorders known as the ‘Schizophrenias’ and where these dis-orders lie on the introversion and extraversion spectrum.

He will discuss ‘Personality gone awry’, behavioural characteristics of BPD, NPD and the schizophrenias, how a personality disorder is diagnosed and look at some of the difficulties people with personality disorders have in gaining a sense of self, compared to a ‘healthy’ personality which can gain some objective view of itself and make necessary changes.

I don't know anything about Art, but I know what I like - Don Kampf
2024-07-20 13:30 - 16:30 (Australia/Melbourne) | The Epicentre, 427 Glen Eira Rd, CAULFIELD NORTH, Victoria, 3161, Australia
‘I don’t know anything about Art, but I know what I like.’ This seems a fair statement, and I wonder if Type strongly influences peoples’ likes or dislikes in Art?

Everyone has their own personal take on art in its many different forms. Some people are attracted to beauty, while others enjoy the darker side of the artistic world. Some are merely great at appreciating the talents of others – while some are amazing at partaking in their own creative abilities.

We’ll explore these aspects of psychological type and art in an in-person session in Melbourne with Don Kampf.

DON KAMPF, ENFP, gained psych degree and post-graduate qualifications and later taught at universities in Business and Law faculties, whilst operating consulting and coaching practices. Throughout, he retained an ongoing engagement with art, with frequent periods of active output in painting and drawing.

Don participated in many art workshops; through art groups and affiliations, the National Gallery Society, Centre for Adult Education and University of the Third Age. He also participated in many art exhibitions and shows including Camberwell Art Show, Darebin Art Show, Eight by Eight Art show, Glen Eira arts and culture, Ola Cohn Centre and extensive private showings.

Painting has been Don’s primary pursuit since 2017. Don is a tutor in Art at the University of the Third Age, Glen Eira. Some examples of Don’s art can be seen below and at https://www.facebook.com/don.kampf.3

Should I Laugh or Cry? Exploring the Impact of the fourth ('inferior') function with Andrew Mountford
2024-08-17 13:30 - 16:30 (Australia/Melbourne) | The Epicentre, Caulfield North, Caulfield North, Victoria, Australia
Should I Laugh or Cry? Exploring the Impact of the fourth (‘inferior’) mental function as expressed in an individual’s personality (psychological) type.

Carl Jung observed that an orderly progression emerges for most people in relation to four mental functions based on Perception and Judgement. Isabel Myers developed the MBTI® to implement Jung’s theory of type.

Perception is about ‘all the ways of becoming aware – things, people events or ideas. It involves information gathering, seeking sensation or inspiration – selecting which stimulus to pay attention to.’

Judgement means ‘all the ways of coming to conclusions about what has been perceived. It includes evaluation, choice, analysis and the selection of a response after receiving the stimulus.’

Mary McCaulley, who worked intimately with Isabel Myers, noted that the purpose of the MBTI® was to make the theory of psychological types by C.G. Jung understandable and useful in people’s lives.

The theory goes that individual type development occurs in different ways for different types – but the stages of development follow a typical path. The first or ‘dominant’ preference emerges in childhood (6-12 years). The second or ‘auxiliary’ function appears in adolescence (13-20 years). The third or ‘tertiary’ function appears in early adulthood (20-35 years). The least developed or ‘inferior’ function makes its presence known in mid-life (35-50 years). And after that? Come to the session on 17 August to reflect and discuss. The session title offers a clue…

When we include the use of these functions in the extraverted and introverted ‘world’ we arrive at eight possible preference choices.

Roger Pearman reminds us to keep in mind that the goal is not to equally use all eight functions but to at least recognise their contribution to our lives. Equal use would not be desirable. This would be like eight voices talking at you at the same time and at the same volume. He suggests that ‘chaos of self’ would certainly result.

November: Bullying – explores reactions when your child is bullied or when s/he is the one who bullies others, including the parent

At the conclusion of the workshop participants will receive a list of 100+ hints for working with type differences in children.

‘10/10’ – Our Final AusAPT Annual Conference

AusAPT was conceived at a conference — the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator: Australian Perspectives conference, held in Melbourne in October 1991.

In October this year, we’ll be back in Melbourne for our 20th — and last — AusAPT conference.

In CB radio code, “10/10” means “transmission completed” — so it’s apt that we’ll gather on the tenth day of the tenth month for our final face-to-face conference, at Karstens Conference Centre in central Melbourne.

Our Friday conference program features distinguished figures from the world of personality type, locally and internationally — Sue Blair, Mark Toner, Alex MacFarlane, and one of AusAPT’s founders, Peter Malone.

We’ve kept the price of our 10/10 Conference low which includes lunch and post-conference drinks. Prices are:

Your conference registration also includes an invitation to our Thursday evening pre-conference Soirée Au Revoirée at the charming Epicentre in suburban Caulfield North.

All sessions will be held in English, except for one that will be in Japanese.

Type Around The Clock will be accessible to anyone, anywhere, at any time during its 24-hour duration. But some sessions will, of course, be at more convenient times than others.

If you’re in Australasia, the first two sessions will run daytime Saturday 18th April: Brian Lawrence will start at 10:30am AEST in eastern Australia (12:30pm in New Zealand), followed by Terri Connellan at 12:30pm AEST (2:30pm NZ). You might also like to join Terumi Ito’s session at 3pm AEST (5pm NZ): it will be conducted in Japanese, but with live-translated captions that may give you the gist of the discussion.

The next block of sessions, from our type friends in the UK and France, will follow on Saturday evening and night: Josh Leach and Jerry Gilpin at 6:30pm AEST (8:30pm NZ); Steven Launay at 8:30pm AEST (10:30pm NZ); and Sue Blair and Elizabeth Dunn at 11:00pm AEST (1:00am Sunday NZ).

You’re welcome to register for just one or two sessions of special interest — or for a round-the -clock marathon of all nine sessions.

Between the presentations there will be breaks and social sessions, a great opportunity to meet and chat with other type enthusiasts from all over the world.
