Chris, in an attempt to shed light into the "what makes us different?"
discussion, I did some investigating last fall and winter using the
MBTI. Here is a link to the "verbal" version of the poster I did at
this year's IA Summit. While I'm not sure that my investigating
actually answered anything, it did appear to resonate well with those
attending and if anything, some interesting patterns began to emerge.
