"How to Read People: A New Framework" (Career Series #102)

Join Dr. Larry Stybel, co-founder of Stybel Peabody Associates, Inc., to discuss how you can “read” others so that you can tailor your messages to increase acceptance.

The Golden Rule: treat others as you would like others to treat you. There is a dilemma when you apply the Golden Rule in leadership: Try to convince others using the approaches that work well with you may result in you ending up frustrated, angry, and ineffective.

Educational Goals:

• Participants will be randomly divided into pods of three for this workshop.
• Presentation of the FAD HOP framework.
• How to Read People You Have Never Met.
