The Four Tendencies: How to Build Better Habits and Relationships at Work

There’s no magic, one-size-fits-all answer for building a happier, healthier, more productive life. Gretchen Rubin, a LinkedIn Top Voice and 7x New York Times best-selling author, developed the Four Tendencies framework to help you harness self-knowledge so you can take steps to create the life you want—in the way that’s right for you.

Gretchen explains how each tendency—Upholder, Questioner, Obliger, and Rebel—interacts with work expectations and personal goals. When you know where you (and others) fit in this framework, you can align your habits and expectations accordingly. The course is suitable for independent professionals, team members, and anyone eager to improve workplace harmony and personal success.
