Some people act first, some feel first, and some people think first. If we listen carefully, people tell us what language they’re speaking…
Act First
“Come on, let's just get on with it.”
Feel First
“I don't know how I feel about that.”
Think First
“I need to think about that more.”
If we don’t recognize the language, we end up talking past each other.
One might want to connect, another wants to plan, and the last one already got started!
Being able to recognize and switch to someone else’s communication style is a critical step in becoming an effective communicator.
