7 Types of Man
We must consider several conditions when trying to understand types of men and their characteristics. Alfred Adler suggested that people can be typed according to their birth order in the family, while Carl Jung mainly concentrated on the introvert dimension, one who focuses on internal matters, and the extrovert dimension, one who focuses on external matters. Jung claimed that one of these functions tends to dominate although one person can acquire characteristics from each of the different processes. Shri Shrutpragya Swamiji will explain the secret of these 7 types in this session.

20/20 Jain Vision
This session will be part presentation, part reading of various people's lives, and part discussion. Bring questions, answers, part answers, and thoughts. Be prepared to speak and debate with your peers. We will be going through a few small snippets from different religious traditions as well as atheism, and reviewing the lives of a few successful leaders for whom their attitude towards faith has proved to be an important guidepost. We will also be watching portions of movies and documentaries. We will then proceed to evaluate which aspects of Jainism we can and should look to for guidance and support in our own leadership journeys. Faith will be looked at critically and functionally - not just as a de facto "right" source of knowledge or guidance.
