How to deal with different types of people

To give you more insight on different Personality Types http://cherryblossomcoach.blogspot.co.nz/p/personality-types.html and moreover how to deal with each of these styles, read this.

So what works for Playfuls? What is the language they understand?
People come first! Playfuls cannot work without people. They are not afraid to start a conversation, so in the area of Sales or in personal life, they are really good at starting new relationships and building them further.
Give them an active and buzzing environment, let them develop new ideas. Keep in mind, though, that working further on these ideas is a different story....
Playfuls are usually very charismatic, so give them that opportunity to be in the front line, to present and to network. They love helping people.
Give them attention, time for affection, listen to their stories attentively, give them approval and acceptance.

What works for Powerfuls?
Do you know that Powerfuls get upset with a need to sleep? Yes, that's right! It interrupts their work, their ability to produce. They need more time to work with. If you feel that they are on the mission, do try to give them space and time. They will appreciate you for that.
When they are under stress and tired, just tell them that you see how hard they've been working, tell them that they need a time out.
Credit their abilities and the work that they do - that's all they need to produce more!

What works for Peacefuls?
Peaceful are great at finding peace and harmony. If there are problems at home or at work, they will wait for the fire to cease and then join the winning team.
They know all the gossip, people feel at ease sharing their problems with them. Do remember that they will never give your secrets away. Value them for that.
Give them quite and calm environment. Wait for the right moment to push your energy and excitement outbursts at them.
Respect them for what they are, even if you think they are too quite and non-energetic. They will respond back with lots of positivity!

What works for Precises?
Precises have an amazing ability to qualify and quantify everything, so fewer mistakes are made. They feel secure when the world around them is based on a data and analyzing. It is often hard for them to accept that others don't look at the world the same way they do.
Plans, plans and plans. Organise everything and everyone around them. So go along with it: sometimes it is just easier to agree.
Precises are very sensitive types. Do aknowledge what they are going through.
Space and silence is what they require, so from time to time do them a favour and leave them alone. They love you (or they think you are a great boss at work), but they also need a time of their own to be able to carry on.

And what works for you? What Personality Type are you? Please comment.
