This week’s target is Paul Howard, managing partner of the Wragge & Co’s London Office.

Disciplined, direct, uncompromising and exceedingly goal-orientated, this writer is the absolute antithesis of waffle! Despite this writing being extremely simplified, I note that he chose to extend the upper and lower strokes while minimising the middle writing zone; direct pointers to him actively disliking/avoiding small-talk, making a point of setting out what are the acceptable [for him] parameters, having set up a well nigh impenetrable wall of determination to reach his desired goals. His negatives reveal themselves only when he considers himself to have been thoroughly provoked and comprise of [obvious] impatience, [brusque] dismissals and a tendency to thoroughly dissect what he regards as unnecessary red-tape.
