Professional performer, controlled conditions. Do not attempt.
extraordinaire
In a previous article for the CMAA, Peter Webster has outlined
each of the six personality types. The PCM model has such
depth and richness that these six types all have a sequential,
observable and predictable pattern of distress. That is, once
you understand the principles of PCM, you are armed with a
tool that enables you to analyse your and others’ behaviour
and see in-the-moment responses that are either in OK-OK
space, or in the zone of distress.
Distress is nothing to fear; it is purely data
I’ve known PCM for a while now, and I approach everyday
interactions differently because of it. Maybe some find I
am more confident because I have a secret weapon. I have
knowledge of how to invite people out of distress and get them
back into OK-OK space. If knowledge truly is power, then I am
armed with a superpower.
I have lost count as to how many interactions I have drawn
on PCM theory and applied it quickly and easily. Now it is just
something that I do. It is my default style for communicating
with people. PCM is drawing out the best in me, and allowing
me to draw out the best in others. One of the best by-products
of teaching people this skill of analysing and decoding
behaviour is the “ripple effect.”
People leave the PCM Part 1 seminars absolutely transformed
and excited. That kind of positivity is powerful and contagious.
This world needs more positivity and it is absolutely inspiring
to be part of something truly good.
People have shared that in the three days of PCM, they have
experienced more self-growth and self-awareness than in
years of weekly psychoanalysis. I can truly believe it. And from
my end, I don’t need to even know what the issues are that
need healing. Information is power. That is healing in itself.
