We affectionately call this a “cheat sheet,” because it’s an immediate reference guide for anticipating how people will respond in various situations.

Print this free guide, and use it with your partner, your team, and your entire business.

(If your group hasn’t taken the Fascinate test yet, you can do that right here.)

In our research with hundreds of groups, we’ve seen that the top teams aren’t built around similarities, but around differences. Once you identify the most valuable differences of each individual, your group becomes stronger as a whole.

Start applying this free guide with your group. You’ll see how different communication styles balance each other, and improve results.

Viva la difference!
