Some Key models in Directive Communication Psychology
Colored Brain Communication
Knowing how to identify different brain coloured processors gives an individual the ability to make more effective use of his mental resources. The person will be more efficient in dealing with people, using more flexibility in communication. He gets a better understanding of himself and the people around him, applying greater persuasion ability, to bring out the best in others...
Encoded Assumptions and the Circle of Tolerance
Perception of any situation is based on the boundaries we have set for ourselves. These boundaries reside in the events of our past, where we formed certain "assumptions" about the way things should be. As we grew older, many of the Assumptions became encoded in our vision of the world...
Emotional Drivers
There are eight fundamental human drivers. Each of these is based on a human psycho-emotional need. While each of these drivers is present in each individual, they do not have equal importance. Also they are achieved in different ways by different individuals. Every individual has a different order of importance for these eight drivers. We are constantly filling these drivers; sometimes in positive ways, sometimes in neutral ways, and sometimes in negative ways. But we are constantly filling them.
The ranking of these drivers can change with time, based on our environment, our experiences, and especially our traumas. These drivers can also be cultivated either positively or negatively by our environment, our culture, our parents, our teachers, and our peers...
Postures
Postures are physical manifestations of emotions and that are induced willingly or through reaction. In group dynamics the wrong combination of postures can lead to indecision, group complacency or conflict. Awareness of postures, however, can improve innovation, productivity, rapport, and the eventual outcome of the project. The knowledge is a useful tool for influencing behaviour and producing desired outcomes in positive interactions.
There are 4 primary postures that are most useful to us. Each has its positive and negative sides. When harnessed, these postures can bring out the best of your mental and emotional facilities. When left to chance, each may be the product of a negative reaction. Or if positive, it is not maximized to it’s fullest potential...
Force Multiplication
Directive Communication™ (DC) is a foundation science of how people act and react to each other in groups, and how that relates to Productivity, Leadership, and Workforce Effectiveness. Using this psychology in a Systematic Process to inspire ownership within the individual, team, and organization, DC sets the emotional and decision-making base for optimizing workforce attitudes and cooperation.
These programs are designed for Specific groups such as Key Influencers and Future Leaders chosen through the discovery process to positively direct enthusiasm to create a "creative problem solving environment". In addition participants will gain a new perspective of their place in the organization, and learn how they can make a difference in their lives through “Being Better Employees” and as well how it affects their own balanced lives.
Culture Evolution
Each culture affects the effectiveness and level of commitment of the people and within that culture. And that perpetuates the psychology that creates the culture the first place. In order to break the cycle and evolve a culture and the commitment of those in it, leaders need to understand their roll in the psychological dynamics behind the culture and make adjustments that will move it to the next level. Carmazzi has stated 5 levels of Organisational Culture.
The Blame culture This culture cultivates distrust and fear, people blame each other to avoid being reprimanded or put down, this results in no new ideas or personal initiative because people don’t want to risk being wrong.
Multi-directional culture This culture cultivates minimized cross-department communication and cooperation.
Environmental Leadership
In a world where information travels faster than ever, the expectations of work and leaders have changed significantly in just a few years, and with those expectations, the emotions and motivations that move us to greatness also affect our effectiveness and our longevity in a job.
When people’s emotional needs are being met on outside of work on diverse plains of social networking, productivity tools, and fast, easy interaction and information transfer across the
globe, a new form of leadership must be applied. A psychological form of leadership called “Environmental Leadership”.
Pyramid of Commitment
At each level of Organisational Evolution, people will be working, acting, thinking, and feeling at different levels of personal commitment. The X factor for Corporate success is the Company’s ability to gravitate the majority of the Workforce toward the Self Actualization level. At this level, the Individual outperforms himself to achieve organizational goals which are aligned with his personal sense of job satisfaction and Significance.
The level of Individual
People rely on personal skill and the direction from Leaders. When working on the...
