8. 3 PERSONALITY TYPES WHEN MAKING A PLAN

9. Personality Number 1: Sees where something isn’t happening so looks for the reason why not? Then puts solutions together and runs them by people. Takes on the helpful advice from others and ignores the negative feedback. Then puts a plan in place and presents a proposal to his or her line manager. If the proposal is sanctioned then puts the plan in place. Observes for progress, identifies where things could be improved and celebrates the success of things that went well. Where the plan doesn’t go to plan, the person will look for reasons why and see how things can be done differently next time and puts the new plan into place!

10. Personality Number 2: Sees a great idea…rushes headlong into their boss with the fab new idea. Doesn’t see why the plan can’t be put into place immediately and starts gung-ho. Makes decisions without chatting to others and then gives up easily at the first hurdle. They have great intentions but rarely follow through on the PLAN.

11. Personality Number 3: Says we tried that before and it didn’t work, so why are we trying it again? Tends to be negativein what they say or in what they don’t say (body language). Will identify the problems but not the solutions. When solutions are identified will give reasons as to why these won’t work. Audible or inaudible resistance (obvious resistance).

BRIDGEBUILDER IS IS NOT Positive Keeps an open mind Not afraid to fail Tries, tries and tries again Asks people for ideas Is a new role for some people Stands back and sees the bigger picture Negative Limited by organisational constraints Gives up easily or says “we tried that before and it didn’t work” Someone who works in isolation Just about caring

14. Changing your mind… Mary decided that she would like to do some voluntary work so she started volunteering for her local church.

She went twice and did a fantastic job…the place was sparkling! Now she has changed her mind and doesn’t want to go anymore…what should she do? What should her team partner do?

This sounded great to him….what should he do next? What should his team partner do?
