Every style (a la DiSC) has different professional priorities that drive it (see my blog post about that for more info about the styles and their priorities); the way in which every style communicates is different as a result. Learning what those differences are--and how they manifest so that you can use that information to serve your relationship positively--goes a long way toward establishing more effective communication and, therefore, a richer and enhanced relationship.

Her question to me was, what do you do when a client that has just experienced a sample session with you gives you the feeling that this person is not going to be a fit for you? You don’t think you’re going to gel together. You will find in your life that there will be people who come into your path as a coach who, for whatever reason, are not meant to be your clients. You know what? That’s …
