*It is important to me to know what is happening with my teams, so I don’t feel left out and like I don’t know the information I should. *It is important for me to know the ‘why’. I am not challenging you, I just need to understand the reasoning behind things. *Sometimes I just need time to process information. Rather than assuming that I am upset, give me some time, then talk to me about it. *Having down time means a lot to me! Evenings and weekends are when I recoup my energy and when I am constantly having to answer questions that could have waited, I end up feeling more drained. *Please don’t withhold information from me, or leave me out of conversations, because you THINK you know how I will respond. Don’t hold my emotions against me. *I need to have feedback on my work – if I’m doing something well or can do it better, tell me. *I’m a quiet person until you get to know me, don’t interpret my quietness as dislike or disinterest.
