Imagine that you meet someone like Crazy Cathy. She may not look like this image…
IF you had to work with her, now imagine that you had a cheatsheet like the following one… for key behaviors, her preferred communication style, and what NOT to say to her.
Behavior
•Creativity, spontaneity, and unconventional thinking
• Individuality and freedom of expression
•Unpredictable behavior
•Impulsive decision
Preferred Communication Style from Others
•Open-minded, receptive to new ideas
•Willing to engage in brainstorming sessions or unconventional approaches
•Exploration and experimentation
What Not to Say or Do
•Rigid structures or limitations
•Dismissing her creativity
•Not being sensitive
In my consulting engagements, I never get a cheat sheet like the one above. Who does?
One of the reasons I developed these cheatsheet notes (with my friend Richa Singh) is because we were presenting a workshop called “Consulting With Next Gen Leaders” at the Purposeful Planning Institute in Denver, CO, on July 30, 2024.
Another reason for this post is because we developed 10 more avatars.
If you want to see the others, or use them to understand the emotional complexity in your family system, then contact me today.
