Event Overview
Connecting with Style for Better RelationshipsIn both our personal lives and careers, we often run into people who are difficult with whom to connect. We too often dismiss and walk away from difficult people. And yet, it might just be that you’re speaking different languages!Learning the language of different behavioral styles will help you interact with others with style and grace, making every relationship easier to foster. In this Lunch N Learn, we will discuss:

  • How to identify the four basic behavioral styles just by observing how the other person dresses, acts and shakes your hand.
  • What motivates the styles to take action.
  • What your dominant style likely is.
  • How your style is perceived by the other styles.

Walk away having a better understanding of how to interact with others for greater success in your career and your life!
