Picking Peoples' Motives Is Tricky

Picking peoples’ motives is tricky

They’re often disguised to mask what’s not commonly acceptable or known

Or, camouflaged amongst the team’s expectations

 

RELATIONSHIP skills will sift through the observable data

Asking questions to validate and adapt to build trust

Aiming to discover what’s positively & productively involved in RELATIONSHIPS

 

What you see are peoples’ STRENGTHS, their behaviours in RELATIONSHIPS

What you don’t see are their values, motives & drive

 

So, what’s happening while working REMOTELY – has the task become trickier?

 

Are you using the same STRENGTHS to lead RELATIONSHIPS REMOTELY?

Are you overusing some STRENGTHS to be RESILIENT?

And are you avoiding the use of STRENGTHS - for that conversation or to fix the project yourself?

 

In our Relationship Intelligence work (Relationship Awareness Theory), we focus on your 28 STRENGTHS.

 

Here’s a sample:

PEOPLE focused STRENGTHS – Devoted, Helpful & Trusting

PERFORMANCE focused STRENGTHS – Competitive, Self-confident & Quick-to-act

PROCESS focused STRENGTHS – Fair, Principled, & Analytical

PERSPECTIVE focused STRENGTHS - Sociable, Inclusive & Adaptable

 

Which STRENGTHS are showing up in your REMOTE RELATIONSHIPS at the moment?
