Drivers
• Unconscious internal pressures that makes us do things certain ways, e.g. with speed, perfection, little emotion etc.
• Doing things in these certain ways tends to satisfy inner needs rather than actual events.
• Some drivers more helpful than others at certain times / certain contexts

Drivers
• Drivers give us an insight in people's behaviour and help us to build relationships more effectively.
• Five drivers have been identified. • Imagine you have a set of children's building blocks and
plan to make a column…

Drivers
• Most commonly: • Two rather than one driver will show up strongly; people
tend to favour a combination of Drivers rather than a single one
• One of the drivers will be particularly low
• People evolve combinations that enable them to capitalise on strengths and minimise weaknesses

Drivers – Be Perfect
The basis of Be Perfect is that every task, person, product or even statement can and should be rated as more or less good or bad.
![Page 22: Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocatedintranetsp.bournemouth.ac.uk/documentsrep/SNyman_Casestudy.pdf · Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocated](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071605/6141cfc02035ff3bc7624424/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
www.bournemouth.ac.uk/dementia-institute 20
Drivers – Hurry Up
The basis of Hurry Up is that there is some additional virtue in doing something in a short time.

www.bournemouth.ac.uk/dementia-institute 21
Drivers – Please People
The basis of Please People is that someone has to find satisfaction in you performing a task, or at least should not be displeased.
![Page 24: Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocatedintranetsp.bournemouth.ac.uk/documentsrep/SNyman_Casestudy.pdf · Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocated](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071605/6141cfc02035ff3bc7624424/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
www.bournemouth.ac.uk/dementia-institute 22
Drivers – Be Strong
The basis of Be Strong is that something is particularly worth doing if it costs a lot. Not so much in effort but stress, worry and near disaster.

Drivers
• Unconscious internal pressures that makes us do things certain ways, e.g. with speed, perfection, little emotion etc.
• Doing things in these certain ways tends to satisfy inner needs rather than actual events.
• Some drivers more helpful than others at certain times / certain contexts

Drivers
• Drivers give us an insight in people's behaviour and help us to build relationships more effectively.
• Five drivers have been identified. • Imagine you have a set of children's building blocks and
plan to make a column…

Drivers
• Most commonly: • Two rather than one driver will show up strongly; people
tend to favour a combination of Drivers rather than a single one
• One of the drivers will be particularly low
• People evolve combinations that enable them to capitalise on strengths and minimise weaknesses

BUDI away day questionnaire re teamworking
1
BUDI away day questionnaire due 28th July Please find below a questionnaire that I would like you to complete ahead of the away day. There are no right or wrong answers; it is just an exercise to help us get to know each other more that will hopefully help us work better as a team. Before Monday 28th July could you please do the following: [1] Complete the questionnaire (pages 1-2) [2] Add up your scores (page 3) [3] Read the section on submission (page 3) [4] Save the file with the above completed and email it to Samuel at [email protected] Instructions on how to complete the questionnaire Take each question in turn. For each question, you will be presented with five statements. From the five statements pick out the one which is the most true for you and give it a high mark (between 7 and 10 out of 10). Then take the statement that is least true for you and give it a low mark (between 0 and 3 out of 10). Then arrange the other three statements somewhere in between, giving each a mark that ranks them between your lowest and highest score. One description should be given a mark of 5 in each question. Repeat this process for all 12 questions.
Statement

BUDI away day questionnaire due 28th July Please find below a questionnaire that I would like you to complete ahead of the away day. There are no right or wrong answers; it is just an exercise to help us get to know each other more that will hopefully help us work better as a team. Before Monday 28th July could you please do the following: [1] Complete the questionnaire (pages 1-2) [2] Add up your scores (page 3) [3] Read the section on submission (page 3) [4] Save the file with the above completed and email it to Samuel at [email protected] Instructions on how to complete the questionnaire Take each question in turn. For each question, you will be presented with five statements. From the five statements pick out the one which is the most true for you and give it a high mark (between 7 and 10 out of 10). Then take the statement that is least true for you and give it a low mark (between 0 and 3 out of 10). Then arrange the other three statements somewhere in between, giving each a mark that ranks them between your lowest and highest score. One description should be given a mark of 5 in each question. Repeat this process for all 12 questions.

Be strong Be Perfect
Try Hard Hurry Up Please People
Drivers are; Unconscious internal pressure that makes us do things certain ways, e.g. with speed, perfection, little emotion etc and can often be inappropriate or unhelpful in obtaining results, [not always] They tend to satisfy inner needs rather than actual events, but they are useful for identifying external signs that reflect internal processes. - Imagine you have a set of children's building blocks and plan to make a column. Be Perfect "I'll have to square up the blocks exactly" (as if perfect accuracy was important) Hurry Up "I'll have to see how fast I can build the column" (as if speed was important) Please People "I'll look around to see who is watching me" (as if their approval is important) Be Strong "I'll sit on the floor rather than sit at a table" (as if the discomfort gives it added merit) Try Hard "I'll try it out horizontally first" (as if the extra effort was worthwhile) The most common patterns are: (a) for two rather than one driver to show up strongly and this seems to fit with experience, which is that people favour a combination of Drivers rather than a single one, and (b) one of the drivers is particularly low, which is also useful feedback. Scores usually range between 40 and 80. Anything over 80 is high. Only 2% have scores of over 100 or under 30. Any combinations of drivers appear possible. Although it would seem difficult to combine Hurry Up with Be Perfect (one intent on detail the other on speed) it does happen. Be Perfect with Please People would seem especially vulnerable, particularly if combined with low Be Strong. But they do exist. People evolve clever combinations that enable them to capitalise on the strong points and minimise their losses. Drivers give us an insight in people's behaviour and help us to build relationships more effectively.

Be Perfect The basis of Be Perfect is that every task, person, product or even statement can and should be rated as more or less good or bad. Consequently, the Be Perfect will probably: - worry about getting something wrong - want to work out every last detail before offering it for comment - insist on getting it exactly right when a rough approximation would be more useful - want to get things right first time - keep on and on to complete a job long after productive energy has been used up - be well organised with the consequence that: - poor time planners (keeps checking when no longer necessary or when people would rather see a draft quickly) - checks things themselves rather than trusts others - hate others criticism: go out of their way to avoid it - is often complicated - will be driven to distraction by a Hurry Up Works well in jobs where detail is important and the set standards are important For improvement needs to: - realise that less than their best may be what is needed at the early stages - realise that their qualities of accuracy and organisation may have a poor impact on others with different drivers Managers need to help them give themselves permission to: - Allow for and forgive * mistakes * imperfections * incompleteness

Hurry Up The basis of Hurry Up is that there is some additional virtue in doing something in a short time. Therefore Hurry Up will probably: - rush at things - talk rapidly - interrupt and finish others' sentences - try and do more than time allows - be good in a crisis - do things at the last minute with the consequence that: - they are often late and miss deadlines - they leave people behind (literally and metaphorically) - they plan time badly ('I can't waste time' so they rush around and don't plan things) - they have poor judgement over how long and how much energy jobs require - they are prone to mistakes in terms of, poor quality and inattention to detail - will be driven to despair by a Be Perfect But, they work well when ACTUALLY under time pressure because their energy will be high.. For improvement needs to: - think and plan ahead with regard to the REALITY of available time - have short term goals with defined standards. (bite sized jobs) Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to be satisfied with what can be done comfortably within the given time.

Please People The basis of Please People is that someone has to find satisfaction in you performing a task, or at least should not be displeased. Therefore the Please People will probably: - tend to be apologetic - to give way relatively easily - to agree - to try and avoid conflict - worry about upsetting other people - not begin unless someone will notice them working with the consequence that will probably: - be a good team member but not a team leader - go out of their way to make sure that you are happy (not always with the desired effect) - find confronting poor performance very difficult - be moody and easily depressed - give credit when credit is not due - expect people to know what they want without telling them (clairvoyance!!) - appear compromising However, they can be the mortar that holds a team together. Performs the 'maintenance' functions of involving people, checking, summarising etc. They will be sympathetic, empathetic, tolerant and flexible For improvement needs to: - get on with things. Let actions speak for themselves - turn sympathy outwards not inwards Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - work out what they want for themselves - say what they believe and to think independently

Be Strong The basis of Be Strong is that something is particularly worth doing if it costs a lot. Not so much in effort but stress, worry and near disaster. Therefore Be Strong will probably: - put a lot of pressure on themselves - have the feeling that they are on the verge of cracking up or not being able to cope any more - often speak in a strong voice - shoulder responsibility and additional burdens well - be super cool under pressure - not ask for help (must cope on my own....) with the consequence that: - the Be Strong is very difficult to notice externally (this difficulty is often a good sign of a Be Strong) - show little outward emotion - appear to have very 'broad shoulders' - gritty/laconic or jovial people - can sap the energy of others Remember the Be Strong is very good accommodating poor conditions or putting up with things that many would find unreasonable For improvement needs to: - learn to relax - admit to being weak in some situations Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - take things easy sometimes - accept their emotions * fear * sadness * joy

Try Hard The basis of Try Hard is that it is always worth putting more, and more, and even more effort into doing something. Therefore Try Hard will probably: - puff and blow a lot - have 5 projects going simultaneously - when talking, go on and on and on........... - make things harder than they are - spread out a task - be good at hanging in there and making a. last effort with the consequence that: - they will digress from the key task - dislike finishing - start things and then lose interest and energy - may not follow through on projects - can sap the energy of others Remember the Try Hard is very good in start up situations and where effort and energy to complete are needed. For improvement needs to: - finish some things - put some full stops into their sentences - follow through when necessary Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - let things go - be satisfied with little endings

Be strong Be Perfect
Try Hard Hurry Up Please People
Drivers are; Unconscious internal pressure that makes us do things certain ways, e.g. with speed, perfection, little emotion etc and can often be inappropriate or unhelpful in obtaining results, [not always] They tend to satisfy inner needs rather than actual events, but they are useful for identifying external signs that reflect internal processes. - Imagine you have a set of children's building blocks and plan to make a column. Be Perfect "I'll have to square up the blocks exactly" (as if perfect accuracy was important) Hurry Up "I'll have to see how fast I can build the column" (as if speed was important) Please People "I'll look around to see who is watching me" (as if their approval is important) Be Strong "I'll sit on the floor rather than sit at a table" (as if the discomfort gives it added merit) Try Hard "I'll try it out horizontally first" (as if the extra effort was worthwhile) The most common patterns are: (a) for two rather than one driver to show up strongly and this seems to fit with experience, which is that people favour a combination of Drivers rather than a single one, and (b) one of the drivers is particularly low, which is also useful feedback. Scores usually range between 40 and 80. Anything over 80 is high. Only 2% have scores of over 100 or under 30. Any combinations of drivers appear possible. Although it would seem difficult to combine Hurry Up with Be Perfect (one intent on detail the other on speed) it does happen. Be Perfect with Please People would seem especially vulnerable, particularly if combined with low Be Strong. But they do exist. People evolve clever combinations that enable them to capitalise on the strong points and minimise their losses. Drivers give us an insight in people's behaviour and help us to build relationships more effectively.

Be Perfect The basis of Be Perfect is that every task, person, product or even statement can and should be rated as more or less good or bad. Consequently, the Be Perfect will probably: - worry about getting something wrong - want to work out every last detail before offering it for comment - insist on getting it exactly right when a rough approximation would be more useful - want to get things right first time - keep on and on to complete a job long after productive energy has been used up - be well organised with the consequence that: - poor time planners (keeps checking when no longer necessary or when people would rather see a draft quickly) - checks things themselves rather than trusts others - hate others criticism: go out of their way to avoid it - is often complicated - will be driven to distraction by a Hurry Up Works well in jobs where detail is important and the set standards are important For improvement needs to: - realise that less than their best may be what is needed at the early stages - realise that their qualities of accuracy and organisation may have a poor impact on others with different drivers Managers need to help them give themselves permission to: - Allow for and forgive * mistakes * imperfections * incompleteness
![Page 105: Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocatedintranetsp.bournemouth.ac.uk/documentsrep/SNyman_Casestudy.pdf · Team strengths workshop plan Time Activity Time allocated](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071605/6141cfc02035ff3bc7624424/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
Hurry Up The basis of Hurry Up is that there is some additional virtue in doing something in a short time. Therefore Hurry Up will probably: - rush at things - talk rapidly - interrupt and finish others' sentences - try and do more than time allows - be good in a crisis - do things at the last minute with the consequence that: - they are often late and miss deadlines - they leave people behind (literally and metaphorically) - they plan time badly ('I can't waste time' so they rush around and don't plan things) - they have poor judgement over how long and how much energy jobs require - they are prone to mistakes in terms of, poor quality and inattention to detail - will be driven to despair by a Be Perfect But, they work well when ACTUALLY under time pressure because their energy will be high.. For improvement needs to: - think and plan ahead with regard to the REALITY of available time - have short term goals with defined standards. (bite sized jobs) Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to be satisfied with what can be done comfortably within the given time.

Please People The basis of Please People is that someone has to find satisfaction in you performing a task, or at least should not be displeased. Therefore the Please People will probably: - tend to be apologetic - to give way relatively easily - to agree - to try and avoid conflict - worry about upsetting other people - not begin unless someone will notice them working with the consequence that will probably: - be a good team member but not a team leader - go out of their way to make sure that you are happy (not always with the desired effect) - find confronting poor performance very difficult - be moody and easily depressed - give credit when credit is not due - expect people to know what they want without telling them (clairvoyance!!) - appear compromising However, they can be the mortar that holds a team together. Performs the 'maintenance' functions of involving people, checking, summarising etc. They will be sympathetic, empathetic, tolerant and flexible For improvement needs to: - get on with things. Let actions speak for themselves - turn sympathy outwards not inwards Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - work out what they want for themselves - say what they believe and to think independently

Be Strong The basis of Be Strong is that something is particularly worth doing if it costs a lot. Not so much in effort but stress, worry and near disaster. Therefore Be Strong will probably: - put a lot of pressure on themselves - have the feeling that they are on the verge of cracking up or not being able to cope any more - often speak in a strong voice - shoulder responsibility and additional burdens well - be super cool under pressure - not ask for help (must cope on my own....) with the consequence that: - the Be Strong is very difficult to notice externally (this difficulty is often a good sign of a Be Strong) - show little outward emotion - appear to have very 'broad shoulders' - gritty/laconic or jovial people - can sap the energy of others Remember the Be Strong is very good accommodating poor conditions or putting up with things that many would find unreasonable For improvement needs to: - learn to relax - admit to being weak in some situations Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - take things easy sometimes - accept their emotions * fear * sadness * joy

Try Hard The basis of Try Hard is that it is always worth putting more, and more, and even more effort into doing something. Therefore Try Hard will probably: - puff and blow a lot - have 5 projects going simultaneously - when talking, go on and on and on........... - make things harder than they are - spread out a task - be good at hanging in there and making a. last effort with the consequence that: - they will digress from the key task - dislike finishing - start things and then lose interest and energy - may not follow through on projects - can sap the energy of others Remember the Try Hard is very good in start up situations and where effort and energy to complete are needed. For improvement needs to: - finish some things - put some full stops into their sentences - follow through when necessary Manager needs to help them give themselves permission to - let things go - be satisfied with little endings
