Corporate Manager Brian Everyman’s goal is to establish formalized, flowery communication that respects his position in the hierarchy and the rules prevailing in his environment. So how should you prepare to better communicate with Brian? We suggest the following action plan.
Practice your casual communication skills by practicing with people who are similar to Brian. On the other hand, you can expand your skills by communicating with Brian according to his rules. Brian should receive mirrored suggestions.
For all of this to succeed, you need to first find someone who can recognize who is similar to whom and to whom they are not, and, in addition, possibly can indicate people that aren’t like anyone else ;-). Em is best suited for this tough task. She knows a lot about people’s characters.
