This document discusses the consultative style of communication, which involves a more informal dialogue where speakers do not plan out what they will say and use shorter, more spontaneous sentences. It provides examples of situations that typically use consultative style, such as business transactions, doctor-patient conversations, student-teacher conversations, expert-apprentice discussions, and group discussions. An activity is proposed where groups create sample dialogues modeling these different examples of consultative communication.
