OVERVIEW ABOUT Persuaders
The Persuader is an engaging communicator who operates with a strong sense of urgency and initiative. They drive to get things done both with and through people, at ease in group settings and self-assured when meeting new people.
HOW TO MANAGE A persuader
Persuaders need opportunities to get involved in new projects and interact with different people frequently. They excel when afforded some independence and flexibility, while learning and advancing at a faster-than-average pace.

FACTOR COMBINATIONS

SELF COACHING QUESTIONS
- Have you considered where your enthusiasm is energizing others, or whether your pace and visibility are leaving too little room for other perspectives to shape the work?
- Have you considered when stronger follow-through on the details would increase your impact, or are you moving on from the idea before execution is fully secure?
- Have you considered where a more deliberate pace would improve results, or are you trusting momentum to solve issues that need more structure and attention?
