What type of party should I throw? © Fiona MacKay Young 2008 This month I've been thinking about the different types of parties that the different personalities would enjoy. The most common type of party, where people just mingle and chat is a great enjoyment to some, and torture for others! If you are an extrovert who enjoys people in general, you will thoroughly enjoy the chance to go around and chat to whomever is there, whether it be friends and family or total strangers. The concept of socializing is perfectly suited to you, and you to it. But whether you are aware of it, or not, social gatherings are not so easy for everyone. Some people can be very comfortable socializing with people they know well, no matter what their backgrounds, just the fact that they are familiar faces makes it easy to mingle. However, often these same people will be very uncomfortable in larger gathering and drift only towards those they already know rather than take the opportunity to meet new people. People who are selective in their choice of friends, seldom are interested in small talk. They don’t mind who you are, whether they know you or not, if they discover a common interest with you, they can chat to you for hours and enjoy the experience immensely. However, they will get bored fast if no area of common interest appears. They are not interested so much in listening to a wide variety of topics. They have their own interest zones, and stick in that general area. The loner will do bit of socializing if absolutely necessary. If it comes as part of the work, or they have become used to it through work, they may do a very good job of it. However, they don’t really enjoy it, and much prefer to have time on their own, or at least just with one compatible other. Games of many kinds are a good idea for social events because they tend to give the opportunity to each type to behave in their preferred style. There is the game player who makes a great deal of noise, comments on everything every one else does, encourages and comments from the sidelines and is generally involved throughout. This is the social type. The less social player can play his or her part as required, but be more quiet and withdrawn at other times, recharging batteries as they go. Most games give you the chance to sit between 2 people, so the selective and clannish players can choose where they sit to suit this trait. People, as well as socializing in different ways, are auditory, visual or kinesthetic. This means they take in information and prefer things that employ the use of listening, seeing or doing. We each have a preference. So in any group, an activity that includes all 3 will be best suited to a mixed group, and many games do involve all three. Games have been popular for a very long time. There has to be a reason. And the reason is that they fulfill the needs of all types of people. So next time you have a social gathering, consider getting things going with a game. And of course, my suggestion would be the Signature Analysis Party Game!!!
