Everyone makes decisions differently and is motivated or driven by different things. Being aware of and understanding these differences is really important when managing employees or creating relationships.
Over fifty years of scientific research has revealed that there are three distinct styles of decision-making. Each of us can make decisions in all three ways Wholesale Ian Thomas Jersey , but we tend to develop a preference for one more than the other two. This preference becomes a subconscious force, affecting the decisions we make on a daily basis and shaping how we perceive the world around us and ourselves. The three decisional styles are personal, practical Wholesale Donte Jackson Jersey , and analytical.
To some extent everyone is capable of making all three kinds of decisions, but we ultimately have a preference. Here is a simple example of the three in contrast with each other. A person with each style is sitting around a table working on a project together. While the Personal style is focused on the needs of the team members involved and how to best use their talents, the Practical style doesn't really care as much about the team or if it is done right Wholesale DJ Moore Jersey , he just wants to get it done. Finally the Analytical sees no reason to worry about the people involved or even getting it done if it isn't going to be done correctly.
We all have different balances of these three styles. That is what makes our decisions and actions different from others. These ways of making decisions and how we use them are at the core of whom we are.
In addition to there being three distinct styles of decision making, people are also motivated to make decisions based on different drivers. Based on the research of Eduard Spranger and later by Gordon Allport, there are seven key motivational drivers and they include the following:
聲 The motivation to achieve balance Wholesale Jordan Scarlett Jersey , harmony, and find form or beauty 聲 The motivation for security from economic gain and to achieve practical returns 聲 The motivation to be seen as unique, independent Wholesale Christian Miller Jersey , and stand apart from the crowd 聲 The motivation to have influence and control over one's environment or success 聲 The motivation to benefit others in a humanitarian sense 聲 The motivation to establish order, routine, and structure 聲 The motivation to gain knowledge or discover truth
Imagine how beneficial it would be to know how your team members make decisions and why they are motivated to do what they do. Imagine being able to share that knowledge with the actual team members. Communication Wholesale Will Grier Jersey , teamwork, and your ability to manage would instantly improve. Results and outcomes would measurably improve. Uncovering how people make decisions and what drives them to do what they do can be uncovered through a simple assessment process. However, the assessment process is only the beginning. A commitment by management to create an action plan on how to effectively use the knowledge to improve team building is a critical second step. Information for information's sake is--you got it--just information. An action plan to manage with the new information will provide long-term and sustainable results for your team. Will it Shred?

We recently took a look at the Kobra 385 SS4 Desktop Strip Cut Shredder. Overall the machine is quite nice but I'll let you be the judge after you see the pros and cons below. Always remember that the stated specs of a machine do not always translate precisely to a real-world environment.
Security
This is the second lowest level of security available rated at a 2. This strip-cut shredder is a tad better than a level 1 machine but not a whole lot. If you are really concerned about the information on your documents then we highly recommend that you start looking at some of the cross-cut machines. The one benefit of the strip-cut machine is that you can shred faster and more pages per pass. Just make sure that you are choosing the right security level for your needs.
Shredable Material
The Kobra 385 SS4 Desktop Strip Cut Shredder can shred CDs, Credit Cards, Paper Wholesale Brian Burns Jersey , Paper Clips, Staples. If you need to be able to shred something else then we recommend that you look at a larger machine andor look for something with a little bit lower security (the higher the security the less likelihood that the machine shreds something other than paper).
Continuous Motor
This shredder is rated for continuous operation. That means that theoretically you could shred all day long and the machine would not have to shut-down to cool off. Remember that results may vary under real-world operating conditions and things such as the temperature of the room will affect the ability of this motor to stay cool and continue to shred. We give this machine 2 pats on the back for being rated continuous duty and we know that you'll appreciate this feature in due time.
Bin Size
The Kobra 385 SS4 Desktop Strip Cut Shredder sports a hefty 34 gallon bin. We know that you're not messing around when you get up in this size. You'll be able to go quite some time before you have to actually empty that thing out. Fill up your machine, skip the gym and just carry the full bag around the office all day!
Throat Size
A 15.25 inch throat means that you can fit just about anything into this bad boy. Gone are the days of folding your oversized paper or crumpling and jamming your machine with regular-sized paper. This guy gets 2 thumbs up for the often underestimated large throat size.
