Adapting To Different Styles

Introduction:

How many times has someone gotten upset with you because they misunderstood your intentions? How many times have people misread your tone, your mood or your approach? Was there a small change that you could have made that would have prevented all the confusion? Too often, that insight comes a little too late. This course is designed to help participants grasp that insight before misunderstandings occur, not after. The training module helps them understand some of the most important aspects of human perception and interaction. Participants learn to see the characteristics of each style and understand their unique preferences. But most important, they recognize how behavior is likely to be misread and learn to adjust their communication to meet the needs and styles of those around them.

Objectives:

This program is designed to help participants:

Understand themselves and others
Appreciate the communication preferences of different people
Recognize when their behaviors are inappropriate or likely to be misunderstood
Build strategies to adapt their behaviors for more effective communication
