Angelo is a Country Manager for an International company working in South East Asia. He has worked in various countries throughout Asia and enjoys the energy and diversity as well as working with the local and international staff.

Angelo mentioned how in the beginning when working with such diverse groups of people it was a real challenge. Bringing all these people together to work under one roof was proving to be a big problem.

Communication with your fellow country men and women can already be a challenge. Now working with a number of different cultures and various ages all in one company he felt he was spending a lot of his time correcting misunderstandings and fixing problems.

While talking with Angelo he then mentioned that now he has managed to work out a solution for working with so many different cultures all in the one company. It’s not perfect, yet it is so much better that I can now focus more on the job at hand.

Naturally, I was curious and was wondering what he had learned to be able to produce the positive results he was attaining.

“One key practice that I have”, he said, “was to meet people where they were at”. “To understand their culture and meet them with their own thinking and beliefs”.

“Then I would lead them to how the company works and what’s expected so they have an opportunity to grow, learn and develop while doing things differently”.

With this attitude and practice in place it was working very well for Angelo in growing his staff to work together amicably and produce positive results.

This practice that Angelo uses with positive results is what we share in our NLP training workshops and coaching sessions.

When communicating the quickest and most effective way to build rapport is to understand the person you’re talking with and how they see the world. Join them in their model of the world and have an experience of how they see the world.

Then with this information we are able to gently lead them to other places of possibility and different ways of doing things for positive outcomes.
Only from their model of the world are we able to lead them.

In many cases if we remain in our model of the world and not understand theirs the gap is to great and it will be very difficult to get them to move through empowerment as opposed to the stick approach.

Many believe the best style of communication is through learning and empowerment.

Empower the staff to understand, take responsibility and allow them to work mostly unaided for positive results.
