In today's podcast, I discuss how the DISC Personality assessment can help leaders understand their own style and the styles of their team members. By adapting their leadership style, leaders can effectively manage their teams. I also highlight the importance of change management exercises when a new leader takes over, as well as the impact of team member styles on team culture. Throughout the video, I provide insights and tips for leaders to navigate these dynamics and ensure productivity and success.

In this video, I discuss the importance of adapting your leadership style to meet the needs of your team members, peers, partners, and even your children. I emphasize that there is no good or bad personality type and that adapting your style doesn't mean compromising authenticity. I provide examples of how adapting your style can improve retention and create a more harmonious work environment. Additionally, I address common questions about authenticity, being a chameleon, and the workload of a leader. Join me as we explore the benefits of adapting your style and learn practical strategies for effective leadership.

Welcome back, folks. So, this is our last in the personality type series. As a reminder, if you're listening to this on your podcast platform, know that we have a YouTube channel and you can watch that. So let's get started. If you're just joining us, there are four different personality types. We're trying to help you understand the types so that you can adapt your own staff whether it be as a leader or as a peer, so that you can meet in the middle. There are four main personality types. I like to assign each of them an avatar and a sound bite or a mantra that helps you remember them.

Today, we're doing a deep dive into the conscientious or the C personality type.  So, as a leader, or a parent, how do you recognize if your subordinate or your child is conscientious? They can take a long time to make decisions. They tend to be reserved and will observe situations. They're very precise and tend to be more private. They don't share personal things readily and they are very systematic. So when I think of Legos, I think of the conscientious types.

Personality types are gauged by a couple of different factors, whether people are more outgoing or more reserved. Whether they're more warm and accepting or questioning and skeptical. Based on how you answer those questions, we will plot you on a four-quadrant system and each quadrant has a style name, a soundbite, a mantra, and an avatar to help you remember. When I work with teams, the more that they can remember who's who and what they prefer, the more that they naturally adapt their style to me. Meet people in the middle so that we can compromise and get work done more efficiently, pleasantly, and with better lasting results. So, let's get into the details of the steadiness style.

Their mantra is "get it right", and their avatar is Steve Jobs. The steadiness style is like peace and tranquility for everyone. They are the only ultimate team players. They are humble,  patient, tactful, and are wonderful teammates. But they tend to be a little bit overly deferential. Oftentimes,  what happens is they defer, and then they get resentful because they're like, how come nobody asked me what I think?

Hey, welcome back everybody. I hope your week is going well, and I've found you in a very good place. This month’s theme is about coaching your staff according to their style, and today, we're going to do a deep dive into the “I” type or the Influence personality type. So, just a quick recap, if you haven't been with us the last couple of weeks, there are four major personality types, and I like to identify them all with a sound bite and an avatar because I think it makes it easier to remember. The avatar of this personality type Richard Branson, life is a party. How do we know the “I” style? Well, all of us disc facilitators make this joke that the “I” is lowercase “i” in the acronym DiSC because we need to tone these people down a little bit. They are very enthusiastic, outgoing, optimistic, high-spirited, and lively. So sometimes if you're a reserved person and you're around one of these colleagues, or if this is one of your children, you're kind of like not my thing. You might feel like they're unprofessional, or they can't possibly be getting work done because they are having fun, but they really are.

Every team needs an “i”  in their organization. They need someone who is enthusiastic about supporting one another. They are very socially oriented and that's the glue that keeps people together.

Last week, I discussed the importance of understanding different personality styles and how they can improve communication and collaboration in the workplace. I also introduced the DISC personality assessment, which divides individuals into four quadrants based on their dominant traits. For today's podcast, we will talk about coaching the dominant team member. There's a reason that the "D" personality type is called the dominant style.They're firm, strong willed, and direct. They are not easily talked out of an idea once they have set their mind into something. They are results oriented. So if you're managing a D style, whether it be your child or staff member, we need to adapt our style in a very agile way to what they need and what's appropriate in that situation. It could be difficult to manage a D style because it's a demanding personality type.

Today, we will talk about the second essential skill for an effective leader, and that is adapting your style as a leader. This means making sure that you are addressing each and every person that you interact with in a way that they can hear the message you're trying to deliver and delivering it in a way that matches their personality essentially. What their preferences and tendencies are when it comes to receiving information, getting feedback, etc.. It is essential that we do that; otherwise, the message isn't heard.

We are continuing the discussion about the essential skills for an effective leader. And today, we are talking about the first essential skill which is what leaders need to do when it comes to setting the vision. It is so important to know about vision because it's basically the leader's job to establish a clear expectation of where the team will go. It’s important for people to know and understand that employees want a clear plan. Clarity is essential for us to take one step after another to move forward. So as leaders, we need to say, here's the plan. And here's how I think we could get there.
