If you were to ask a manager, which creates more stress for you? (A) The lack of skill of your people or (B) The drama created by how they work together? It would be no contest, overwhelmingly drama. That happens because people don't understand each other. If an Owl is asking you loads of questions, it is not because they don't trust you. It's because they care about quality. If you remove the judgement it gets replaced with acceptance. When that happens the drama goes away. The birds become the language of the organisation. Some organisations will have desktop birds sitting on every desk. Graham's desk will have an Eagle. Kevin's desk will have an Owl. If you were at an Eagle's desk do this: - BE BRIEF, BE BRILLIANT, BE GONE! With a Dove, you might start by saying, "Hey, how are you?". You wouldn't jump right to business.
