I have been out of the office for the past 10 days and had an opportunity to attend the Kiwanis International Convention in Las Vegas. It is always exciting to attend this convention as I get a chance to see old friends and make new friends from all over the world. It was a great opportunity to put into practice the Platinum Rule. Many of the organization leaders are directors and are only interested in the bottom line while many of our peers are relaters and socializers so it was important to be a good listener. Nonetheless, it was a great convention and a great Kiwanis pick me up.

Again I would like to remind you that the items I am currently discussing are from "The Platinum Rule" written by Dr. Tony Alessandra.
The "Directing Socializer" is exuberant and well spoken. To this person prestige is important so he or she will constantly seek status symbols. They love being a spokesperson or a presenter of new ideas. They will appeal emotionally to individual. They also dislike routines, slow paces and needless details while they exude a positive entusiastic outlook on life. When working with people this individual should try to be less impulsive.

The socializing socializer or "The Entertainer" likes being friendly and being viewed as the life of the party. This person needs recognition and is an advocate for change who infuses others with enthusiasm and optimism. A quick decision maker whose greatest asset is personal warmth.

Again I would like to remind you that the items I am currently discussing are from "The Platinum Rule" written by Dr. Tony Alessandra.
The next style I will discuss is the "Thinking Director." These individuals are future oriented people who often become bored with day to day routine details. They want to change the way things are done, perform to their own standards, seek control over people, do not express their inner most thoughts and feelings and strive to accomplish the unusual. Thinking Directors are task oriented and as a result they are so focused on their work that they can appear to be aloof. If this individual would show more genuine warmth and interest in people they could multiply their effectiveness.
