If you are raised in the West, you are taught to view the ancient knowledge of astrology as a mere superstition. Ironically, ancient astrological knowledge is re-packaged into modern personality profiling (i.e. Myers Briggs and True Colors) and sold to corporate executives for lots of money.

Of course, I’m against this. Why should businesses spend thousands of dollars on knowledge that has been around for eons? That money can be spent more effectively on product development, management training and long-term goal setting.

I know, I know, personality profiling creates jobs. I, too, want job creation, but not the prostitution of ancient knowledge for the betterment of a precious few management consultants.

Ohio Astrology would like to contribute its share during this Great Depression, I mean, Recession, and offer companies a free, downloadable personality profiling segmentation.

There are two benefits to using the Ohio Astrology Diner Food Personality Profile Segmentation:

1. It is free
2. It is easy to understand

Think of all the food that exists in the workplace (a relief of boredom, I believe). Food and corporate life go together like peanut butter and jelly. Your employees will embrace this segmentation much more than they will something with an obscure name like “Myers Briggs” and pretty soon they will all get along, which is the goal, right?
