Coordinator

For coordinators, both are important: the quality of the work and the togetherness in the circle of the team or friends. On the one hand, they want to be able to be proud of what they have created, and on the other hand, they strive to coordinate well with the others. Those who communicate with a coordinator should expect both factual and personal questions.

The strongest motivations of a coordinator are:

Communication

Communication with a coordinator addresses the conflicting basic needs for individuality (recognition) and belonging (integration). It is necessary to coordinate tasks among each other and to coordinate joint work. For this, he needs a factual knowledge, if possible prepared in such a way that he can “sell” the contents to his friends. Provide him with simple representations also with the hint, which benefit his environment will have from it.
First of all, it is about him and his factual questions. In this phase of the conversation, you are his expert informant. Once he has understood what is at stake and what alternatives are available, the focus switches to the friends or colleagues involved or affected, with whom he would like to coordinate everything else. From now on, the discussion can become more lively and friendly. Nevertheless, remain in an attitude that is interested in him personally as a human being without wanting to fraternize with him. You want to help him. That is all.
The coordinator loves well-prepared documents. After all, he wants to coordinate the next steps with those around him. It’s about correctness, clarity and questions of meaning, such as: What do we get out of this? What does it improve? You should not overwhelm him with a mass of paper or slides, but give him an overview and offer him the opportunity to go into the individual topics in greater depth if necessary. He needs to know that you are available for him if necessary and, if possible, also explain things to his “team” together with him.
