The fundamental principle that people are different from each other summarizes many of the personality descriptors.
My view is that personality descriptors help only when one uses those descriptors to acknowledge and then act in accordance with the fundamental principle that people are different and require different treatment, to be treated the same.
Say that again. Slowly.
People are different. To treat everyone in the same way would be wrong. As Dr Covey says, we treat people the same when we treat them as they need to be treated – differently.
The concept of treating people differently also forms the basis of Blanchard’s Situational Leadership II.
This fundamental principle also confirms the existence of diversity, which is important for synergy to happen.
