“Understanding Different Work Styles With Color”
People have different work styles and sometimes these can cause frustration, confusion and stress in the office environment. For example you may be the type of person when you see that there is a better way of doing something you want to just do it. Your supervisor on the other hand may be the type that when you bring this issue to her/him that they really need to analyze it and take the time to look at all of the ways it could be done to make a decision on what way to do it best. This absolutely drives you crazy, you feel that you could have already remedied the situation and moved on to something else. Or suddenly you need a new photocopy machine yours just stopped working and you need this in order to do your daily work. The simple solution is to go directly and immediately to the local office depot and pick a new one up so that you do not get behind in your work. But your boss is the type that has to research every photocopy machine out there to make sure he/she gets the latest and greatest and on sale! They don’t seem to see the urgency on your part.
OfficeTeam has a great survey and free download guide called “Your Work Style in Color” which addresses the type or style of work person you are. Why not get your work team to also take the survey so you all can see the differences you have and possible ways to learn to work better together.
