Adjust for Influence

Welcome to this week's Life Warm-Up™ -

Life Warm-Up™ 

Howdy All!

Remember the theme for this year is, “Living a Life of Influence!”

Adjust for Influence

• Each person has the capacity to “adapt and adjust” his/her behavior temporarily in an effort to meet others’ expectations or to be more successful in certain relationships.
• It is important to understand that our behaviors – natural preferences and predictable differences – can help us identify how we would like to be treated.
• Knowing that we have certain ways that we like to be treated is a great insight to apply when working with others.
• They too would like to be treated according to the way that makes them feel best.
• If you discover who people are, you know an important part of their “people puzzle” that we often miss.
• You can observe behavior through the ‘DISC’ personality grid and know what to do and how to better treat them.
• The “D” personality likes to move fast and forward. "Just get to the point!"
• The “I” personality likes to inspire and influence. "Stop being so serious and loosen up - let me tell you a funny story."
• The “S” personality likes to be laid back and listen. "How are you doing? How can I help you? I love to listen and be a part of the team."
• The “C” personality likes to be cautious and calculated. "Are you sure we covered all the details? I have one more question just in case."
• Knowing about others preferences helps you adjust to meet them where they are at…and that is what Influence is all about!
