Social Styles

The A with the Analytical Style

Your communication style is basically the same as that of your conversation partner, ie analytical in nature. Both are task oriented and not very dominant. Because your basic psychological need consists of the desire for safety and security, it is important to remain attentive to progress during conversations together. In your case, the biggest challenge, in this case, is to work towards a learning goal without getting stuck in collecting information. Your conversation partner will continue to activate you on your ability to continue to take concrete steps. Stay attentive to how you feel about what this is doing to you, whether or not you are actually blocking and what you can do about it. Realize that your strength lies in your ability to come across as reliable. Your challenge is to remain open to other influences and methods and to get the best out of it for your development.

The A with the Controlling Style

Your communication style is analytical in nature and that of your conversation partner more instructive. Both you and your conversation partner are task-oriented, with the difference in the degree to which dominant behaviour is exhibited. His basic psychological needs are focused on achieving results and planning in the short term. Your attention is naturally focused on gathering information, while your conversation partner will activate you to make decisions. As an analytical style you are naturally focused on the past, and making decisions is always preceded by the collection of information. Your conversation partner will activate you for your biggest challenge, namely acting without extensive analysis of the situation.

The A with the Facilitating Style

Your communication style is analytical in nature and that of your conversation partner more cooperative. The basic need of your conversation partner is more focused on acceptance of others while your focus is more on creating security and safety. By nature, your attention is on the task and of your conversation partner on personal contact. The display of less dominant behaviour is similar. Stay attentive to the core quality of your conversation partner: being able to fascinate and bind others on a personal level. Accept that your conversation partner will regularly activate you to make contact with your conversation partner without a direct focus on collecting information. Something that is so important to you. Because both you and your conversation partner are less dominant, uncertainties or issues can sometimes not be expressed. Be alert to this with this cooperative discussion partner.

The A with the Promoting Style

Your communication style is analytical in nature and your conversation partner more expressive. Your conversation partner has a communication style that is diagonal to your own style. He is not only more dominant but also relationship-oriented in contrast to your preferred style. Your basic need is focused on safety and security. The nature of your conversation partner is to act on the basis of a vision of the future without having to worry about a lot of evidence for his / her choices. The most important strength of your conversation partner lies in its openness and ability to engage others. He will activate you to make decisions, without first creating certainty through the collection of information.
