It always bothered me that some people talk too much but don't have very good information. Others that are very knowledgable just sit there quiet. Some are too detail that nothing gets done, some too vague. Some very decisive, others never decide. To get all these different people to work better together (as well as me working with them), I studied personality types and prepared this presentation for vehicle sales seminars I was giving around the world, as I learned the departments in the dealerships didn't work well together right when I was promoting that sales people should be getting referrals from other departments.
I gave seminars on it in the dealerships and not only did it help teambuilding, it helped me work better with different types of people. I hope it will help you as well.
