It doesn’t matter who it was, or what the project was about.What were your interactions with them like?Was it smooth sailing because you understood each other perfectly?Or was it a little bumpy, as you attempted to navigate the waves of of differences in personality, preferences, and perceived Strengths.All of us have a preferred way of interacting with the world. We prefer to communicate, gather information, make decisions, and a host of other things in certain specific ways that make sense to us. It’s when we start interacting with others that we realize how different we all are. And unless you’re living and working on an isolated Island with no human interaction, the key to success is learning HOW to make all of these difference go in the same direction at the same time to accomplish your goal.On today’s episode, you’ll hear Logan and Carrie describe a recent project they were working on together, and the different ways they both approached it. You’ll get to hear them process how their individual Strengths showed up, caused some conflict, and then how they navigated through it to, ultimately, a new better understanding of each other as it related to their working relationship.About The Leadership Vision PodcastThe Leadership Vision Podcast is a weekly show sharing our expertise in the discovery, practice, and implementation of a strengths-based approach to people, teams, and culture.
