Personal Development Discussion: “The 4 Work Styles”
I began this teaching piece by first passing around pages 1-6 of the quiz along with the two Work Styles Assessment Scoring Sheets (one of them is for scoring your Primary Work Style, the second one is for scoring your Secondary Work Style).

This week, it was Martin’s turn to led the Personal Development Teaching Piece and he chose an article found from Indeed.com’s Career Guide titled How to Manage Anger In the Workplace.
What Sets Our Team Apart
What sets our team apart is how we begin each team meeting. Instead of jumping right into the nitty-grittiness of the business, we start by centering ourselves, checking in with each other and learning something new that will benefit each team member’s personal growth.
