Love Languages
Manage episode 397083199 series 3326105
Since Valentine’s Day is coming soon, I thought it would be timely to discuss Love Languages on today’s episode! And, on that note, I’ve also incorporated Valentines into this month’s DISC illustration.
So, here is DISC according to symbols of Love:
High D – Red Rose. Vibrant, strong, beware of the thorns though LOL D’s 😊
High I – Heart. The quintessential symbol of love, who better to embody it than I’s who wear their hearts on their sleeves
High S - Love birds – They support each other, they’re loyal (mate for life)
High C - Love Letter. C’s value the written word and what better way to express their thoughts!
Let’s jump into today’s topic – Love Languages! I’m sure many of you are familiar with the book, “The 5 Love Languages” and this is where most of the source material comes from.
I read this book many years ago and had categorized it in my mind, as something for romantic partners only.
So, I was surprised when one of my clients, who represents a large organization, mentioned that they had used the Love Languages as a team building exercise in the past. That caught me off guard initially, but then I started to think about it, and realized that it’s applicable to the workplace as well, and so, here we are!
The concept that different personalities speak different “languages” (air quotes) is a common thread running throughout my work. You’ve heard me say that High Dominance and High Steadiness are polar opposites. And that in order to truly connect, High D needs to learn to speak High S and vice versa!
Same thing goes for love languages. You most likely speak a different one than your partner, or your colleagues.
So, what are the 5 love languages? Listen on to learn more.
