When writing to an individual with the I style, think about these tips.
- Informal salutation i.e. “Hi there Karla”
- Make a connection i.e. mention mutual friends or colleagues
- Be friendly in delivering your message
- End upbeat with a friendly request
Here’s a sample.
“Hi there Karla,
It was great to meet you at the Chamber meeting last night. As I mentioned I am a facilitator at Everyday DiSC. You mentioned that your company is struggling to get the most out of your product teams. I’m here to support you as you consider various alternatives to improve their performance in any way that you need. Let’s chat on Wednesday. Just let me know the best time for you and I’ll book it!
Talk with you soon.
Cathy”
