surface level, some
determination about yourself and
how you are likely to affect others

Ask Yourself
• Do I talk a lot, or very little?
• Am I confident about myself and my ideas?
• Do I listen to others well, or am I impatient having
to listen to others?
• Am I empathetic to others or do I care mostly
about getting the task done?

Ask Yourself
• When others speak, am I listening to what they say, or
thinking about what I am going to say?
• Am I quick to anger?
• Am I defensive or accepting when someone talks about
my behaviour?

• What makes me feel good?

Communication
is The Life Blood of
The Team
Timely and Accurate
• People who have learned to
support and trust one
another share what they
know freely
• Pass on the information that
members need to operate
more effectively

Communication & Conflict

This talk/listen cycle helps
to keep BP evenly regulated
• When we speak our blood
pressure goes up
• When we are listening attentively
in a relaxed manner, blood
pressure usually falls
• Heart rate slows - below resting
level

In periods of great stress
• communicating with others that pull us through
• renewing inner strength
• lifting our vision
• reaffirming the meaning of life

• trustworthy
• likeable
• represent warmth
• represent comfort
• represent safety
For the message to get
through people must
believe that you are
42

This happens without words
We plug into
thousands of
preconscious cues.

The Eyes Have It!!
IN JUST ONE GLANCE:
Adults make trait judgments
after viewing faces
for only 100ms.
Some of the traits we spontaneously
attribute to strangers based solely
on their face includes –
intelligence, honesty, dominance,
competence, trustworthiness, and
likability. 44

Terror at JTB
8/26/2018 www.ABOVEorBEYONDjm.com 84

Terror at JTBI have just received a call
that the building as been
captured and surrounded
by some of the most
feared members of the
Anti Tourism Militia. They
will allow 10 hostages
(and Dr. Palmer & ME) to
leave the room unharmed.
Only 10.
Starting with the persons in
your group carefully choose
5 additional persons to
leave with you. The persons
must be able to carry on
the business of JTB LIVING
THE MISSION & VALUES
and OPTIMAL TEAMWORK.
The team with the best
composition will be the one to
leave. The others will have to
provide IDs and next of kin
information before the
terrorists storm the room.
[They have no idea we are
doing this. Work quickly
and quietly.]
