Communication style can have a lot to do with quality of match. There are a lot of flaws with things like Myers-Briggs personality analysis, and I don't want to incite any flameage, but I will say that it can go a long way to identifying how people prefer to receive information. It was really eye-opening to me when I discovered the tool. My boss was extremely into details -- I like my reports to give cogent, high-level summaries. My boss hated my status reports, because I wrote what I wanted to get, not what he wanted to get. He thought my status reports were 95% content-free, I thought they gave a clear distillation of the issues. Needless to say, I changed my writing style, and things got better. A few years later, roles were reversed. One report of mine wrote status reports where I could not find the point in the swimming-pool of low-level details. Only this time, I understood the problem, and coached her on the way I needed to get information to keep my brain in the game.
