Secrets of Effective Communicators: Profiling Darren

As we learned last week...

The Biggest Secret of Effective Communicators is that they  communicate with others in the style THEY prefer, not their own style.

Consider this Communication Profiler School. We'll be looking at four distinct behavioral styles.

In this video, I will profile DARREN who is a dominant type with a sharp focus on getting results.

Then I'll teach you how smooth out your rough edges if YOU are a Darren and how to adapt to a Darren if he sounds like someone you work with.

Before I launch into our first profile I want to lay some ground work.

1. There is no "right" or "wrong" profile. One profile isn't better or worse than another. They all have strengths and soft spots.
2. We are all a blend of all four styles. You are not one personality type. We all have some degree of each of the four behavioral styles.
3. I'll be describing the extreme end of the spectrum in each of these behavioral styles.

Throughout this series I will describe each style to help you identify people in your life with these behavioral tendencies. For each style I will point out strengths and soft spots.

If any of these descriptions sound like you...

You have some amazing strengths! Keep those - they serve you. Also consider the insights I offer to help you minimize the soft spots associated with your behaviors. Remember: YOU ARE NOT YOUR BEHAVIORS.

If a description doesn't sound like you but sounds a lot like someone you work with...

I'll teach you how he or she thinks and how to adapt to that style. When YOU adapt to THEM you enter into their world and up your A Game for effective communication.
