Your communication style is of an instructive nature, just like that of your conversation partner. Your basic psychological needs are also the same, namely achieving results. Attention to the person does not have your main focus, but the task that must be accomplished. You both want to do what you say, so it is important to indicate what you are going to do and why. This increases trust between you and your conversation partner. You can also immediately start what you want to discuss. Your conversation partner does not find this a problem. Make sure your conversation partner likes to come to the point and that patience is not his strong point. The process of the conversation is just as important as the result. It is also good to set short-term goals in which you must keep in mind that your learning goal should be achieved through a sustainable solution.
