Third Edition of Company's Best-Selling Training Instrument Now Available

KING OF PRUSSIA, PA--(Marketwire - June 11, 2008) - HRDQ, a leading developer of training resources, today announced the release of the third edition of What's My Communication Style?, its best-selling communication assessment. Founded on the research and personality theories of psychologists including Carl Jung and William Moulton Marston, the company's flagship product has been updated to reflect the most recent normative data and best practices.

Available in printed and electronic formats, What's My Communication Style?, third edition, offers an accurate and reliable way to quickly identify personal communication style, understand the various forms of communication, pinpoint the styles of others, and learn how to 'flex' personal style to improve communication. "The new edition was updated based on client input and developed with our end users in mind," said Martin Delahoussaye, HRDQ's Vice President, Publishing. "The end result is a more robust training instrument that is uniformly functional across various training initiatives and methods of delivery."

Enhancements to the instrument include design and material organization changes, as well as increased subject and background information. Facilitators benefit from updated technical development data, new workshop outlines and agendas, and information for simultaneous use of the printed and electronic versions. Participant materials include expanded information on the background of communication styles and their attributes, and integrated personality style charts designed to help participants "speed read" the styles of others.

"Used as a stand-alone assessment, as a component of a larger training initiative, or facilitated as a workshop, What's My Communication Style? creates an excellent foundation for open communication, and our clients report its relevance, flexibility, and results make it an indispensable part of their training curriculum," said Delahoussaye. "Whatever the training need or delivery method, facilitators can trust the instrument to provide the most recent and useful information that drives immediately applicable results."
