Steven Sisler may not be a household name, but he should be. Steve is a Master Level Behavioral Profiler and the lead Behavioral Analyst at The Behavioral Resource Group. He consults on personality, career strategy, leadership strategy, culture, spiritual growth, relationship management, and temperament strategy. We were introduced to Steve by one of our listeners and we were happy to invite him on the show. His wit and wisdom were both entertaining and rewarding in ways that only a guy who has held jobs as diverse as roofing a house to authoring seven books and speaking at conferences can be. Steve’s behavioral focus emerges from his work with personality assessments, and this brought a fresh perspective us as we rarely dive into the tools of the trade. We discussed the value of understanding who we are as individuals to help us better understand how others are. As Steve said, “We don’t see people as they are, we see people as we are.”  We hope you enjoy our conversation with Steve and we’ve shared links to many of the references – and there were many – for those unfamiliar with this field of study.   Links   Steven Sisler: https://behavioralresourcegroup.com/about-us/about-steve-sisler/ King Solomon (Ecclesiastes 9:11): https://quoteinvestigator.com/2015/06/04/race-swift/ Descriptive Self: https://positivepsychology.com/self-concept/ Normative Self: https://philarchive.org/archive/SILAAN-4 The Prince of Egypt (Disney): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prince_of_Egypt Robert S.
