How to work with different people.


Personality profiling is critical to effectively working with people because people differences lead to people problems.

Each person has a dominant style that influences them and each has strengths and weaknesses not shared by other styles.

We each boil at different temperatures and patterns of behaviour in one style tend to trigger stress in the other three styles.

People become difficult when things don’t go their way. This is because every style and behaviour has a primary intent that it is trying to accomplish!

This table gives a quick snap shot of the extremes that can arise when a person is stressed or working under pressure.



There are two keys to more effectively working with people.

 Firstly to know and understand your own personality style because you need to be aware of how your own primary intend can influence your behaviours.

Second is to become aware of the clues people leave that can give you an insight into their behavioral style. This will allow you to both understand the way a person is behaving and give you some keys to make your communications more effective.

We now have a short workshop available that will help you work more effectively with other people, including work colleagues and clients or customers.

You will gain an insight into your own personality type and behavioral style as well as the people you work with. This can be a vital tool when working in stressful situations or seeking to manage team members or clients through change scenarios.

Contact us for more details about this this workshop.
