Leader Communication Styles

One of the most interesting parts of my consulting work is learning the communication styles of the leaders I’m working with, and adjusting my style to fit their needs. I mean interesting in a good way—it’s fascinating to me how leaders who hold the same title can be so different in the way they process information.

With most CEOs, though, I have a baseline of communication that I typically adhere to:

✔️I always give an executive summary. No going into the weeds if I can help it.

✔️I’m very sensitive to their time. Meetings are efficient as possible, and always to the point.

✔️I’ve learned to be proactive and ask very specific questions to get the answers I need.

Do you adjust your work style and communication based on the people you're working with?
