Understanding how we can communicate effectively to different people

According to behavioural research, the most influential people are those who understand both their strengths and weaknesses, so they can develop strategies to overcome their environment's demands.

 

The way a person behaves is a necessary and integral part of who they are. To put it another way, we are much like what we do. Much of our behaviour is shaped by "nature" (innate), and much of it is shaped by "nurture" (upbringing). I describe the latter later.


Our observable human behaviour is the universal language of "how we act."

We are measuring four dimensions of normal behaviour in this report.


They are: How you deal with problems and challenges.

How do you persuade others to view your point of view?

How do you keep up with the pace of the environment?

How you react to rules and procedures set by others.


Behavioural style is defined in this report as a person's way of doing things. Do you agree with it?

100 per cent? Maybe, maybe not. We're only measuring behaviour. We report only what we observe.

Based on the behavioural patterns found. You can make adjustments to improve accuracy if you wish.

Adding notes or editing the report in regard to any statements from the report that may or may not apply

should only be done after consulting with friends or colleagues.

 

 

Thus, the organization can design a system to capitalise on his individual value
so that he becomes an integral part of the team.
