Working with different types of people – Direct people - part 1 - Soft Skills Training - Virtual & In-Person Training Tailored to Your Needs (2024)
Some people are very direct in their work style; impatient, abrupt and sometimesintolerant,so how do we work with them?…
A Direct person in work can be described as someone who is very driven; makes quick decisions and makes decisions easily; they tend to be impatient with time and when there is work to be done they focus on it and will not be distracted with chat, gossip or anything which delays the achievement of the objective. They hate to be late. They are not all insensitive but many of them do come across in this way. They are result oriented and once a decision is made they prefer to act on it immediately.
