As you continue in your career you will meet people with different needs who may challenge how you have practiced your management style so far. In these situations, you will need to learn to adapt to different styles and build your ever-growing runbook of situational wisdom.

In this talk, I will break down some of the big ways in which people are different: communication styles, ways they prefer to receive appreciation, and attitudes toward career progression. Using examples from my own career I’ll share some tips on how to lead different characters in your team. 

You will leave this talk with:  

• Questions that will help you recognize different styles on your team
• Ways to unlock individuals' potential and make them feel appreciated
• Situational examples of how to tailor your leadership to different personalities
