Description

Description:

In her lecture, Fisher discusses four biologically based styles of thinking and behaving and, using her data on mate choice among 28,000 individuals, shows why we are chemically drawn to one person rather than another.  In this workshop Fisher goes deeper into these natural temperament constellations, and discusses how partners with very different (and similar) biological styles of thinking and behaving interact to create great joy, confusion and sorrow in their partnerships.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Explain the biological basis of many personality traits.
  2. Describe how one’s biologically based temperament contributes to understanding and misunderstanding in all of one’s relationships.
