Foundation in Directive Communication Mini Course
Directive Communication is a training and organisational psychology that affects how people act and react in groups and teams. It is a foundational science for influencing team/group dynamics to cultivate high performance cooperative work cultures and leadership across any people related discipline within an organization. When Directive Communication is applied in training, the groups being trained learn as they become aware, not as they are instructed. Behavior modification then becomes easier to apply. The following 7 elements of this Directive Communication Mini-Course will give you the structure to maximize the awareness of YOUR environment so that it brings out the best in you.
The Circle of Tolerance :
Some decisions, as simple as they may be, determine the direction of our entire life. The things we do as well as the things we don’t do affect our environment and the way that people will act and react around us. And that environment will in turn affect our continued actions and reactions. The foundation for changing our direction and the results we get in our lives lies in the way we make our decisions. While each action or inaction has its foundations in “thinking”, not all originate from “reasoning”.
The Rules of Engagement :
Perception of any situation is based on the boundaries we have set based on our experiences. Some experiences are often interpreted by your brain as an attack to your well being and cause you to react. The reactions are the beginning of patterns that become ingrained in your reptilian (reactive) brain.
The Colored Brain :
Have you ever been talking to someone, explaining something so clearly to the extent you are absolutely sure that they Must understand; and, THEY JUST DON’T GET IT? You probably think “This person is an idiot!” They on the other hand are thinking that you just didn’t know how to communicate? This is what is known in Directive Communication™ as the “Colored Glasses Syndrome”.
The Emotional Drivers :
Every decision you make and every action you take can be linked to at least one of eight emotional drivers. These needs drive your motivation and greatly affect the emotions you have toward anything. Awareness of how these needs affect you is a compass to what affects your personal effectiveness and fulfillment, and more importantly, why it is affected. These drivers and the importance you rank them in will determine parts of your “personality”, they have been influenced by the way your brain processes information, the culture you grew up in, the friends you’ve had, your family and your experience.
The Postures :
Postures are like doors to your identity. Sometimes you open the wrong door and step into the wrong role for dealing with a situation, causing others to react to you in an unconstructive way and triggering more “reactions” from you. You are constantly opening and closing these doors, moving from one posture to the next, each influencing your behavior and your actions. By understanding these postures, you gain access to roles that each play in your environment, some that you may not have accessed for along time, yet each necessary for a balanced life and better group dynamics.
Identity :
Your Identity is the foundation of your reactions. People react to your identity whether you be a leader, a parent, or a friend. Those reactions reinforce certain aspects of your identity and that’s why thing don’t change, at least not when it comes to the way people treat you or work with you. Your Identity is NOT your behavior. If you think about it, your behavior differs from environment to environment. You act differently with one group of friends than you do with another. Each group just brings out different facets of your Identity. The goal here is for you to direct which behaviors, which part of your identity, would be more like the ideal person, leader, manager, employee you would like to be.
Cultivating your Environment :
Leadership is a product of awareness and command of the reactions and influences of a group on the individual.Leadership is NOT about changing the mindset of the group but in the cultivation of an environment that brings out the best (inspires) the individuals in that group… Each individual has various environments that bring out different facets from their own Identity, and each facet is driven by emotionally charged perceptions within each environment… To lead, one must create a platform through education and awareness where individuals fill each others needs. This is accomplished by knowing Why people may react favorably to a situation in environment A, but get frustrated or disillusioned in environment B.
