Mediator

Mediators are people who orient themselves holistically. For them, thinking and feeling go hand in hand. They use their empathy to empathize with what moves their interlocutors and their intellect to clarify meaning and contexts. When you communicate with a mediator, you have it easy: You just have to be open and honest.

The strongest motivations of a mediator are:

Communication

Communication with an intermediary addresses its basic needs for empathy (empathy, harmony) and rationality (cognition). You can serve the two opposite orientations one after the other. Those who want to empathize need vivid stories. Those who want to recognize prefer rational facts and comprehensible explanations. For example, you could tell a story and interpret it: “I have had this experience … From this I conclude that …”
The mediator wants to experience and understand you. He wants to be able to trust you in order to sense and recognize what you want to achieve from him or for him. For both forms of orientation he needs a certain distance, which changes in the course of the conversation. Affection needs closeness and rational cognition needs a greater distance. You may experience him at times as warm-hearted and at other times as cool and matter-of-fact. That is correct. Let him have his changing orientation and stay in a calm attitude towards him. Simply open and honest. This will make it easy for him to appreciate you and your concerns in a positive way.
The facilitator reads, using the imagination of his fantasy to “translate” the text into a vivid scenario. He then tries to explain the structures and logical relationships to himself. In order for him to succeed better and in your sense, you can encourage both with your written communication. For example, show a picture with a short, emotional description, which you supplement with a few explanatory notes or a table or diagram.
