Why Life Languages?
People ask me why I use the Life Languages™ Communication IQ profile as the primary tool in my coaching. Here are just a few of the reasons:
1. We are unique, and we thrive when others affirm our uniqueness. Life Languages™ is the only profile I have found that adequately conveys a sense of personhood that the individual recognizes instantly. I have yet to meet someone who did not want to understand themselves and others better.
2. We don’t fit into boxes. Any metric that separates us into categories impedes teamwork and hinders embracing diversity.
3. Each profile is unique in the order and magnitude of each language, providing affirmation and validation to each individual. Yet, there are only seven languages, so the overall picture is easy to learn and understand. We benefit from external validation of our characteristics, and we can grow in teamwork.
4. Communication is the central focus of this tool. Communication is the lifeblood of teamwork, the foundation of productivity, and essential for organizational mission. Life Languages™ improve interpersonal relationships, meetings, understanding between management and staff, and more.
5. The benefits transfer easily from the workplace to the home. Studies show that most relational stress and breakdown are related to communication issues, and some profiling tools have so many possible results that it is challenging to apply the insights in daily life.
6. Tried and tested over 40 years by psychologists, social workers, therapists, and other professionals. Widely used in many nations across the business, education, civic, nonprofit, and faith communities.
7. You can choose the level of benefit: there is a free “first language” profile, a personal profile with foundational information, and a professional profile with greater depths of insight.
Imagine how you will benefit from these insights into your communication preferences. And if you have your colleagues, loved ones, and friends take their profiles, too, you will take your Communication IQ to the next level.
