What strikes you about Jack’s profile?
the lead voice is advocate and the next two, although level, are some way lower. All three are in the positinoning zone

What are your hypotheses?
There is a chance the folks will hear Jack’s voice as being ‘preach’ which could impact on whether folks respond as they think he wants them to or possibly step back. This could be a challenge when working in a culture that does not embrace this approach. I wonder why he has been asked to complete the VoicePrint.

What lines of enquiry would you follow?
I would be curious to know how Jack percieves his style of communication to be; how, if at all, he feels in may have adapted it / is it a model he has found successful on previous assignments (cultures?) What does he notice about the voices – 1st / 2nd 3rd.
what would be the benefits of other voices?
