Have you ever felt like you're speaking a different language than some colleagues? In this insightful episode, DISC Certified Trainer and Resilience Coach Julie South provides a framework for understanding diverse communication styles through the lens of personality types.

Using the research-backed DISC model, Julie breaks down the tell-tale verbal and non-verbal cues that indicate if someone is an "Assertive Executor," "Enthusiastic Collaborator," "Cooperative Stabiliser," or "Analytical Problem Solver." 

From direct body language and concise phrases to warm gestures and personal stories, you'll learn to quickly identify each unique style.

By developing this personality awareness and emotional intelligence, you can build faster rapport with teammates, better relate to clients when proposing treatment plans, and ultimately improve team dynamics and workplace culture. 

Recognising these cues allows you to adapt your communication approach for more effective collaboration.

Julie provides actionable tips for employers to incorporate this training, like creating team "cheat sheets" on personality cues and hosting workshops with DISC experts. For employees, she challenges you to increase your emotional intelligence by observing colleagues' styles and being more aware of your own.

Don't miss this invaluable opportunity to crack the communication code at your clinic! 

Strengthening these skills will lead to more cohesive teamwork, stronger bonds, increased employee engagement and retention, and an exceptional workplace culture that makes your clinic shine.
