My Style at a First Meeting
Greetings and small actions among unfamiliar people
A first meeting is shaped by more than an introduction. Taking a seat, sitting with a pause, and answering a question can all reveal your way of joining in.
WHAT THIS TEST EXPLORES
WHAT THIS TEST EXPLORES
Imagine correcting a name mix-up or approaching someone who has stayed quiet. Answer with what you would likely do in a new gathering, rather than how you would try to appear friendly. You may act differently with familiar friends and strangers. Think not only about your answers but about making room for others to participate. With a personal question, choose according to the boundary that feels comfortable for you.
- Staying with an awkward pause
- Making room for another participant
- Comfortable boundaries of self-disclosure
