Working Styles
Today's workplace continues to grow more culturally, educationally and philosophically diverse. Research shows that a manager's ability to deal with different Social Styles has a direct impact on workgroup effectiveness and satisfaction. Managers need to model interpersonal versatility to ensure that their workgroups remain productive. This module will help managers communicate with and respond to different styles, increasing their versatility to work together for top performance.
Leading for Performance-Working Styles: Dimensions of Social Style (LFP-WS) is based on the Social Style model, with its four distinct interactive styles: Driver, Analytical, Amiable and Expressive. LFP-WS provides proven skills for identifying Social Style, recognising each style's strengths, and developing interpersonal versatility to adapt one's own behaviour and work more effectively with others.
