Understanding Social Styles

Did you know that 90% of your success in business and life in general is directly related to how well you communicate with others. Communication is not just talking. Communication is listening, too.

Social styles have nothing to do with your personality. They don't tell you anything about a person's morals and ethics. They are simply a way that you have learned how to be in the world. They do not measure intelligence or creativity. They are simply one of the ways you communicate to the world who you are. But they are not really "who" you are. When you can see past a person's social styles, you have tremendous power to be able to communicate with that person, really communicate!

The Social Styles are:

• The Driver: The person who, somewhere in the conversation, says, "Cut to the chase. What's the bottom line here?" They are motivated by results.
• The Amiable: The person who is shy and feels things very deeply. They are motivated by making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
• The Analytical: The person who processes information very slowly and methodically. They are motivated by gaining information and collecting data.
• The Expressive: The person who loves to be "on stage," and is usually the life of the party. They are motivated by fun.

You all have these four social styles in you. But you usually have one dominant and one secondary. To learn more about the Social Styles, Joy offers private sessions for individuals and workshops for groups and organizations. This lesson is fun and interactive. This knowledge helps you to build rapport with people more quickly. To find out more, contact Joy @ 707 963-4453 or email: Joy@JoyBroughton.con
