This post is in continuation to my earlier post on communication style.
In my last post we discuss the “auditory style” communication. To continue the discussion today we will discuss the “Visual Style” of communication.
Visual Style
People having “Visual Style” of communication drive most of his senses from what they see. Pictorial representation of the communication makes them more comfortable to understand the point. People of this category see the world in the form of images. They are very much conscious about the image they are putting in their environment.
How do you recognize a Visual Style person?
Gesture: As these people are very much image conscious, they maintain the same in their gestures. They use their hand frequently during the conversation. They pay attention towards how they sit; how they look. They pay attention to their personal appearance. You will find even their desk very decorative and very clean.
Visual people think very quickly. You will find these people speak quickly as well. These people are often well-organized.
Eye Movement: People having Visual Style of communication frequently look up when answering a question.
Speaking Style: Another clue to recognize a person with visual style is that, he/she uses verb in his speech while talking. They speak quickly when talking about a picture. You will often find in their conversion that they talk about how a situation/thing/scene looks to them or sound to them.
How do deal with Visual style person?
Visual style people rely on pictures and images for the communication. So while dealing with them we should focus on our facial expression, gestures, movements etc.
These people are not good in remembering information or instructions given them verbally. Visual Style people got bored easily if the communication does not include pictures, images or anything which cannot catch their imagination.
Since Visual Style people do not pay much attention to the instructions given to them verbally they are bound to lose the track of the task they are dealing with.
Since a person of visual style is very sensitive to what he see; he/she is not easily diverted by Noise.
That is all about Visual Style of communication. I hope you like the post.
