In the communication well, how do you drill down to the depths of good communication? TALK2ME Class 16 committed to acquiring the strengths of their opposite communicator types. Empathizer leaders decided to become assertively fearless, while the Instigator leaders decided to become fearless listeners. What strength will complement your communication toolbox?
THE EMPATHIZER SIDE OF TALK STREET
• Use compassion and be sensitive.
• Be more direct.
• Lack of fear. I don’t want to be afraid of failure. I want to be successful.
• Be a little more assertive. Be a little more driven.
• Commitment. Make a commitment.
• Be more empowering to my guys instead of being on the same friend level.
• Go-to guy. Be the person to rely on to promote quality and success in the work environment.
• Empowering. Be a charismatic leader and a clutch performer. Be a manager who delivers under pressure, time, and need.
THE INSTIGATOR SIDE OF TALK STREET
• Be a listener. When you listen you earn. Be less competitive. Less is more sometimes.
• Be able to step outside the situation and walk in the other person’s shoes. Have more consideration and compassion about what’s going on with him.
• I would have to say more approachable. Be able to get the employees to understand that if they have problems and gripes, they can come and talk to me. Not be afraid to talk to me.
