Personality is a fundamental aspect of who we are and how we interact with the world. The Big Five personality traits model is one of the most widely accepted and researched frameworks for understanding personality.

Through engaging lectures, interactive activities, and practical exercises, you will learn to identify your own unique personality traits and understand how they shape your thoughts, feelings, and actions. You will also learn to recognize the personality traits of others and develop strategies to communicate and collaborate effectively with people who have different personalities from your own.
The course will cover a range of topics, including the theory behind the Big Five model, the strengths of the framework, and practical applications in personal and professional settings.
