For the green employees, we want to be kind in our criticism. We want to promote involvement and accept their individuality. What we do not want to do is mistake their quiet for apathy or make a lot of changes that will just send them into a tailspin. Most effective teams are a blend of all temperaments. They every temperament can be a good leader, can be thoughtful, can be kind, can get things done but they're going to do it from the corpe of their temperament.
As a leader, your words have everything to do with how you lead and how the people you lead experience you.

Kathleen Edelman and I discuss why having a better understanding of your temperament’s natural strengths and weaknesses will have an impact on improving everything from team trust to team chemistry and productivity.
