Just Get It Done!
Overview of a "D" style
Because of the blunt, straight-forward way they speak to others, the D-style person often gets a bad rep. Most people recognize the D-style person right away. They pull no punches and make no excuses (and they expect you to do the same). They value competency and confidence.  They make no-nonsense decisions, autonomously.
To Adapt To The "D"Style
  • When speaking to them, get to the point! Don't waste their time.
  • Be prepared, organized, and fast paced. 
  • Acknowledge their accomplishment, power, prestige, etc. when appropriate
  • Give them WRITTEN DETAILS  to read in one page (if possible)
  • Give them relevant information with options that will lead to success
  • If you disagree with them, argue with facts, not feeling
  • Don't waste their time (did I say that already???)
