We recently delivered our Life Languages Communication Breakthrough Program to multiple teams at Olvera Advisors in Sydney. Their experience was a clear reminder: when teams understand and appreciate each other’s communication styles, they don’t just function better—they thrive.

But without that awareness and shared language, communication diversity can lead to tension. Here’s how:

  • We unconsciously judge styles different from our own. Whether someone is louder, more reserved, more emotional, or more analytical, we’re naturally drawn to those who communicate like us. This unconscious bias can lead to frustration and friction.

  • Style clashes often spark conflict. A staggering 39% of workplace conflicts stem directly from communication style differences. What one person views as clarity may come across as bluntness. What another sees as tact may be read as indecision.

  • Too little communication diversity can lead to groupthink. When everyone communicates the same way, it may feel comfortable—but innovation suffers. Diverse voices, even when challenging, are essential for growth.

  • Miscommunication breaks trust and momentum. The Project Management Institute reports that over half of project risks are tied to communication breakdowns. Misalignment leads to disengagement and delays.

The Opportunity: Turning Differences into Strengths

At Breakthrough Corporate Training, we don’t believe the solution is to make everyone communicate the same way. Instead, we help teams understand, appreciate, and work with their differences.

During our recent workshops at Olvera Advisors, every participant completed a Life Languages Profile and attended a tailored session to:

  • Understand the 7 core communication styles

  • Identify their own natural wiring—and how others differ

  • Learn tools to bridge communication gaps

  • Strengthen trust and team cohesion

The results? Teams began to see communication differences not as obstacles, but as strengths to leverage.
