When youre an actress auditioning for a sitcom, you often dont have much time to assess what that casting director is looking for in order to get the part. If youre an actor, its sometimes hard to tell if the director is taking you seriously when you offer your opinions on how your character should respond to a situation. But when you have an understanding of behavioral styles and how people respond to you, youll have more of an advantage when it comes to auditions and working on set to create your best work. At Creative Visions Consulting, you can learn how to understand your own behavioral style and those of others when you go through the companys DISCover You program.
Frederick, MD (PRWEB) November 14, 2003 —- When youre an actress auditioning for a sitcom, you often dont have much time to assess what that casting director is looking for in order to get the part. If youre an actor, its sometimes hard to tell if the director is taking you seriously when you offer your opinions on how your character should respond to a situation. But when you have an understanding of behavioral styles and how people respond to you, youll have more of an advantage when it comes to auditions and working on set to create your best work. At Creative Visions Consulting, you can learn how to understand your own behavioral style and those of others when you go through the companys DISCover You program.
When you understand other peoples behavioral styles, you can communicate with them better because youve learned to approach them in a way that they can easily respond to,” says Jim Jenkins, President and founder of Creative Visions Consulting. For example, if youre trying to get your point across to a Director whos very detail oriented and wants to know exactly why you feel your character will respond a certain way, you dont want to engage in a casual conversation before getting your point across, you simply want to explain your views and then give them time to respond.”
Jenkins DISCover You program makes use of the DISC behavioral profiles, which have proven their success in the corporate environment for many years. Over 4 million people have taken DISC, which has helped companies increase sales and productivity, as well as improve communication among employees. DISC can do the same thing for people in the entertainment industry—especially performers who need to quickly assess what a director is looking for or when they want to collaborate better with their fellow actors on a project.” Clients go on-line to take a ten to fifteen minute survey and then Jenkins reviews the results either in person or over the phone. The best part about this program is that its easy to take and the feedback process from the report often opens people up to new ways of looking at themselves and others that they can immediately apply to get results.
Jenkins consulting company offers coaching services that typically include an analysis of his clients behavioral style and communications skills as part of the program. Communication is usually the root cause of so many issues in the workplace; I think its helpful to work in this area to help people have more fulfilling work relationships.” Most of Jenkins coaching takes place over the phone, but he often travels around the globe when clients need his support.
