You May Get

VISUAL Learner and Communicator

Most Likely, You Are Primarily a VISUAL Learner and Communicator WHAT OTHERS LIKE ABOUT YOU: You are great at getting a lot of things done, and you probably get more things done than the average person. You are great at using and designing visual aids to explain your point. You are great at keeping people from getting off track and getting projects done on time. You are good at keeping your focus on the big picture, and you like developing new initiatives or planning things, whether it’s a project at work or a vacation getaway. You probably prefer to keep a tidy work-space. YOU PROBABLY GET MOST FRUSTRATRED WITH PEOPLE WHO: Goof off too much. Don’t show up to meetings on time. Ramble on and on and never seem to get to the point. Change their plans without telling you, or without telling you with enough time for you to adjust your plans accordingly. WHAT NON-VISUAL LEARNERS FIND CHALLENGING ABOUT YOU: Because you like to get so much done, others might feel you rush them, or that you rush yourself and skip over important details. Sometimes others might be reluctant to change plans on you because they know this upsets you, even though there might be good reasons that plans need to be changed. HOW YOU CAN BETTER COMMUNICATE WITH NON-VISUAL COMMUNICATORS: Try not to squeeze too much into your day. This allows you to still retain a balanced, structured schedule like you prefer, but also allows you enough time to adjust and rearrange your schedule when plans need to change. Be a little more patient when listening to others. When someone takes the time to ask your opinion, first take the time to paraphrase them to let them know you are listening and that you value their opinion. Even if you are really stressed out, try to remember they must value your perspective, or they wouldn’t be seeking you out. So remember to use a gentle tone. Try to remember to use phrases like, “I hear what you are saying,” (if you are talking to an Auditory Communicator) or “I understand how you feel,” (if you are talking to a Kinesthetic Communicator). Remember that a happy crew is also a productive crew. Budget time for the non-visual communicators on your work teams to have some free time. Even if you might think it’s a waste of time, it will pay off for you in the long run, and there is no reason you can’t schedule yourself to get some individual work done at that time if you would prefer. www.MakingMoneyByMakingFriends.com
