2.
Which style would be most effective for your position at
HOC? Why? (Consider staff competency, the amount of
work that needs to be done, how staff communicates, etc.)
3.
If your answers to 1 and 2 are different, how can you adjust the way you work?
4.
What problems might arise if you do not make this adjustment?
Other things to consider

2.
Do their styles fit well with their job duties?
3.
If an employee’s style is not a good fit with their job duties, how can you discuss the
situation with them?

Respect for the other person
High
An individual will have one style that they generally feel most comfortable with.
However, in certain situations they will feel more comfortable adopting a different
style . For example, a Winnie the Pooh personality may turn into a shark if you say
something about their child. Any person can learn to effectively be any one of these
animals, but they will still prefer one style over the others.
