The Competent Camel
We are celebrating March Madness with a little MADness of our own. We are talking about personalities and how to communicate and connect with each of the four personalities in the Make A Difference Personality Profile: the Lion, the Camel, the Monkey, and the Turtle.
Last week, we talked about Lions, so this week, let’s take a look at the Competent Camel.
I know a couple who have very different perspectives. She is a detail-oriented Camel, and he is a big-picture Lion who is not detailed in the least. They struggled to communicate and to hear what the other was truly trying to say. Things changed when they learned to speak each other’s personality language. The husband said that learning how to communicate with his Camel wife was truly a game changer for their relationship. Here are 3 things to remember when communicating with a Competent Camel:
Camels are mostly concerned with processes and rules
Camels give lots of details and need details in return to feel validated
Camels highly value competence and doing things the right way
To learn more about connecting and communicating with Competent Camels, check out my book Make A Difference.
Who are the Camels in your life? How well are you connecting with them? Learning to speak Camel Language takes focus and intention. If you choose to put in the work to connect with the Camels in your life, you will make a difference.
