Your Team Role

Sounds like a perfect fit then. My guess is you have a lot of energy that you put into your work with others which may be a direct result of organizational "fit". Wonderful that you found a career that aligns with your preferences and style. Continued success!

Your Communication Preference

Flexibility in communication gives you unlimited potential to connect with others. This is what we call "requisite variety". Believe it or not, there are some who don't have the flexibility you do and they miss out on lots of opportunities. So keep up the good work!

Hi David. Sounds as if you have the face-to-face communication figured out and have an opportunity to improve on phone communication, correct? Well, you're definitely on the right track with understanding the use of voice tone and words is critical. In addition, you may want to consider matching the other person. In other words, if they are speaking slowly - you can too. If they are speaking quickly - you can as well. This is an "invisible" way of forming rapport with anohter person.
