Driver. Be clear about your bottom line. Be ready and keep your interactions focused on business. This will help you remain assertive, direct, focused and concise. We are fond of saying, "You can tell a Driver, but you can’t tell them much, so don’t try." Instead, ask questions that allow Drivers to find solutions and suggest acceptable alternatives. Understand that when negotiating with a Driver, however ruthless your counterpart becomes, it’s not personal, just business from the Driver’s viewpoint.
Drivers are self-confident, assertive, and when feeling cornered, may become aggressive in their tactics. While both the Amiable and the Driver have a need to attain a positive outcome, for the Driver, winning is the most important.
