Tracie Spurlock The book Styles at Work and Beyond by Robert Bolton and Dorothy Grover Bolton is intriguing from even the cover. Making bad relationships good and good relationships better is a challenge from the beginning to dig deep and not only read this book but to use what it must work in one’s life though all types of relationships.

In these settings we have all experienced conflict but what do we do with it? Do we evoid or like the text suggest, understand and confront it head on by changing perhaps how we react to each other. It can be the diffence in making a marriage work or making a job more fulfilling. The text goes into detail explaining the behavioral styles model, it is liken to another model called the DISC model. The text wants us to know that every individual has a place, no matter how different or unique. There’s no right or wrong, all are equal and we all fall into one of the four styles. If recognized and understood we can embrace our differences and have them work together towards a more complete and better goal. The four styles discussion in the text are; Analytical, Driver, Amiable, or Expressive.

They like to be behind the seen and help out. They do not like conflict and will steer away from it. When asked to make a diisiccon it can be hard for them to say for fear they would heart someone elses
