Time-oriented listeners are very precise and want their co-speakers to be the same as well. They are constantly checking their watches to see the time because their time is allocated perfectly so as to encompass everything they want to accomplish throughout the day. Their perfect type of conversation would be quick and to the point - no long-winded stories about something they may not even be interested in. They want to find out the information they need in as little time as possible and then move on to other tasks they have prepared for the day.
