1. Least Preferred Co-worker(LPC) Measure
Your final LPC score is the sum of the numbers you circled on the 18 scales. If your score is 57 or below, you are a low LPC, which suggests that you are task motivated. If your score is within the range of 58 to 63, you are a middle LPC, which means you are independent. People who score 64 or above are called high LPCs, and they are thought to be more relationship motivated. Because the LPC is a personality measure, the score you get on the LPC scale is believed to be quite stable over time and not easily changed. Low LPCs tend to remain low, moderate LPCs tend to remain moderate, and high LPCs tend to remain high. As was pointed out earlier in the chapter, research shows that the test–retest reliability of the LPC is very strong (Fiedler & Garcia, 1987).

CHANNELS AND DOORS OF COMMUNICATION Kahler identified five channels of communication which are complimentary transactions leading to effective communication. They are: - - Emotive
- Nurturative
- Informative
- Directive
- Interventive
Paul Ware identified three modes of communication which he termed ‘Doors to Therapy’ (5). Since this paper is for understanding organisational behaviour these are termed‘doors to communication’. These fall into three categories. These are: 1 Open Door. This is the mode of communication that people use to make contact with others 2 Target Door. This is the mode of communication that they respond to well and leads to deeper and more meaningful contact. 3 Trapdoor. This mode of communication has the tendency to close people down as it indicates areas for their personal development. These types or methods of communication fall into three broad areas. They are: FEELINGS, THINKING, and BEHAVIOUR.
