roles people play
When as nurse, mentor, or saviour, I am in charge and accountable. I am custodial, care-giving, rescuing; so please, seek my advice or favour.
When a coach, judge, or boss of you, I’m in charge and you’re accountable. I am directive, controlling, critical; so ask me what I want you to do.
When as partner, teammate, or friend, we are equals in charge of ourselves. I am cooperative, curious, sensitive; so ask for my interests or opinion.
When a patient, subordinate, or guest, you, as one in charge, account for me. I am submissive, compliant, needy; so wrap facts with gentle clarity.
When as rival, enemy, or competition, you are no way in charge of me. I am oppositional, adverse, defiant; so let the rules do all our talking.
