altEach human being has a preferred brain language that is energy efficient for his/her brain. Knowing your own brain language preference and being alert to the brain language preferred by others allows you the option of speaking momentarily in the other person’s brain language (given you have developed skills in one or more of the other brain-division languages). Observe the other individual’s brain language and reply in kind.

Miscommunications can result for any number of reasons, including differences in:

  • Male speech and female speech patterns
  • Neuroculture (e.g., West Brain or East Brain)
  • Sensory system languages (Visual, Auditory, or Kinesthetic)
  • Extraversion, Ambiversion, or Introversion preferences
  • Innate brain energy advantage

Following are examples of typical communication styles matched to the four cerebral divisions.

altPrioritizing Division

 

altEnvisioning Division

 

Individuals with an energy advantage in this division tend to be logical, brief, decisive, to the point, and somewhat witty when communicating

Their communication is designed to direct what needs to be accomplished in order to achieve the goal(s)

 

Individuals with an energy advantage in this division tend to be big-picture and non-detail oriented, abstract, imaginative (metaphoric), futuristic, motivating, charismatic, and often humorous when communicating

Their communication is designed to convey a picture of what is possible, and to interest and inspire others

 

altMaintaining Division

altHarmonizing Division

Individuals with an energy advantage in this division tend to be matter-of-fact, and quite detail-oriented

Their communication is designed to report what needs to be done or has been accomplished

 

Individuals with an energy advantage in this division tend to be casual, chatty, personable, emoting, and spiritual (depending on the environment)

Their communication is designed to enhance connection and create peaceful foundations for harmony
