DISC Index And The Jung Typology

The Kiersey Temperament Sorter assigned me the personality type ENFJ. The letters stand for Extrovert, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging. After my research, I have found out some broad statements about ENFJs. Scholars describe ENFJs as natural leaders. ENFJs are full of passion and charisma, naturally attracting and inspiring people. Surprisingly, ENFJ forms only around two percent of the population. Some scholars describe this two percent simply as Protagonists. Scholars typically correlate the ENFJ personality type to our world’s politicians, coaches and teachers. Most importantly, ENFJs reach out to inspire others to achieve and do good deeds in the world. ANFJ’s must see the good results they cause to feel satisfaction in their lives. With

A leader I admire, whether real-life or fictional character from the television, the movies or a book, will be identified. Leadership theories will be used to evaluate my selected leader to determine what characteristics and leadership abilities helped this leader become successful. I will also include an evaluation of my own leadership style and identify what my individual leadership characteristics are. The plan will be developed to improve my leadership style based upon the findings of my chosen leader’s leadership style compared to my own.

The title of judge is not me, I do fit into the personality type of perceive. My thoughts do move rapidly from one subject to another. I sometimes find it hard to stay on topic if a new ideal pops into my head. I am often late finishing projects, but I always have them finished “in time”. I enjoy doing new things and am not afraid of the unknown. My work area may appear to others as disorganized, but I see it as the result of a busy mind. I do not; however, agree with all the results. It is very hard for me to concentrate with background noise. I do not like the TV or radio on, when I study. I find this to be a distraction. Although I like to talk, I am also a good listener. I often express my feelings even if it causes conflict. I would rather get the feelings out in the open than to hold them inside to grow and cause greater conflict later. I agree I have an ENFP personality. I am very much a people person. I enjoy having lots of friends and doing activities or projects in a group rather than alone. I currently work at a local pharmacy, and find that my personality makes it easier to deal with several things at once. It also helps with serving the variety of

This paper will discuss two personality tests, the Five Factor Model and the Jungian Model. It will also discuss the results I got from the Five Factor Model and the Jungian Model personality tests. I will then do an analysis of my results and a write a summary of two articles.

I had no clue how the online assessments that I took would help me, like any other person would think. But later, when I took the tests, I realized the importance of these assessments which gave me an insight of my true self, and helped me pin point my strengths and weaknesses in almost every department. These assessments helped me connect more to myself and the people around me. In this paper, I am going to discuss all the results from the various tests I took online and show how they reflect my leadership style and how I analyze the results to my own leadership potential, with help of examples experienced by me in life.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the results of my Humanmetrics Jung Typology Test. With knowledge of my personality type I explain what I learned from these tests with examples from the book Type Talk at Work. The first part of the discussion explains each letter in the INTJ personality and an overall description of how the different parts of the personality work together. The second part of the discussion talks about lessons learned from using the personality tests. This part discusses what I learned about myself that could make me a better employee and what I learned about these personality tests that could make me a better employee. What is learned is supported with the material from the book Type Talk at Work. Throughout the paper there are examples on how this information can lead to improvements in relationships, improvements to yourself, and improvements to those

These week 1 presentations, readings and personality test and links provided will have an impact on my understanding of management and leadership personality types. My preconceived understanding of management and leadership are based on my experience as a manager in two different governmental organizations as well as a brief career doing consulting work in the private sector. In the following pages I will attempt to look at how my management and leadership experiences are reflected in my personality type from the test. The test determined that my personality type is (I)ntroverted, I(N)tuitive, (F)eeler, (J)udger, and in the coming weeks, I hope to find out if that assessment is accurate for me in my personal and professional relationships. According to Type talk at work INFJs tend to be “…inward, meditative and reflective (Introversion)…and there perception of life is to see endless possibilities…(iNtuition).” The text goes on to say that these “… symbols and abstractions are translated through …subjective , interpersonal decision –making preference (Feeling).” which is in turn “…acted out in a lifestyle that is structured, scheduled and

Jung typology test has become something that organizations have been using in order to assist with determining the different personality types where individuals are concerned. While this is not the first time I have engaged in this kind of personality assessment, there is a welcomed refreshment to be reminded about who I am. The results from the human-metrics typology test by Jung revealed that I am the INTJ type. In breaking down the letters and the categories this is the result.

After completing the Jung Typology Test, and the Four Temperaments exercise, I have discovered what exactly my personality traits are and I have narrowed down what some of my strengths and weaknesses are based on a human metrics scale. Throughout this paper I will be discussing the Four Temperaments which are relevant to my test scores being, Extravert, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging and how both my strengths and weaknesses in those temperaments can relate to my everyday work life. I will show those strengths and weaknesses by giving examples and researching which will show validity to why I scored what I did on the Jung Typology Test. Throughout this paper I will also be discussing the NF- “The Idealists” style and how being categorized as, “The Teacher” or “The Giver” type is fitting to my lifestyle. Lastly, I will reference the “Type Talk at Work” textbook in discussing what role I play in my organization and how I can better understand why my personality traits have such a major impact on who I am, how my co-workers view me and what I’ve learned. In conclusion, the Jung Typology Test and the Four Temperaments exercise will ultimately allow me to grow as a member in my organization.

There are 4 Temperaments ranging from Guardian, Artisan, Idealist. and Rational. Upon taking the Jung Typology Test I received ENFJ or, Extravert, Intuitive, Feeling and Judging. (“Finding Your Passion,”2017).ENFJ would fall under the Idealist temperament. A moderate preference for Intuition over Sensing and Judging over Perceiving was established. ENFJ means my temperament is that of an idealist or a teacher. I am not surprised that I was matched with an idealist however, a teacher did take me a little by surprise. I always joke that I would love to be a motivational speaker however, I do not have enough patience to watch people continue to make poor decisions without offering some not so constructive criticism. This article stated teachers

Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) includes the following dimensions: adjustment, ambition, sociability, interpersonal sensitivity, prudence, inquisitive, and learning approach. The HPI and HDS (Hogan Development Survey) are designed as interdependent personality inventories to assess the normal and dark personality traits (Spain et al., 2014). For example, HDS Colorful is 0.61 correlated with HPI Sociability, HDS Excitable is correlated -0.71 with Adjustment, and HDS Caution is correlated -0.68 with HPI Ambition (Spain et al., 2014). Despite limited research, Harms, Spain, Hannah, Hogan, & Foster (2011) found that the complementary approach of employing the HPI and the HDS predicts leadership effectiveness. Due to the high number of dimensions in HPI (seven dimensions) and in HDS (11 dimensions), the commercial component, and the requirement for highly specialized personnel, their application within the workplace, particularly in small organizations, is limited. Therefore, the perspectives of contrasting the Dark Triad (three dimensions, free) with the Big Five (five dimensions, free) and adjusting it to the requirement of the working environment represents a research opportunity that once established would solve real-world problems of assessing, selecting, and developing

Self assessments have been used widely in recent decades. The usefulness and truthfulness of these assessments depend entirely upon the user. Utilizing a self assessment tool for the betterment of self is the goal of this report. In this report, I have completed 3 different self assessments to analyze myself. The first assessment that will be discussed is the Jung Personality Test. The next one will be the Team Role Preference Survey followed by the Work Locus of Control Survey. Each of these surveys focuses on various behavioural and personality traits. The Jung Personality Test focuses on four principal physiological

This paper explores the personality traits of the Myer-Briggs personality INFJ. Research for this assignment was conducted using the text book, the internet, and my personal account. While completing this project I gained a better sense of self and an individual, leader, and worker. It is my hope that this project can be used as a resource for others who have the same personality type as myself.

To begin, I took the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment. This assessment has been a reliable source for documenting personality and focuses on four dimensions of personality: extraversion or introversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving (Ledlow & Coppola, 2014). Based on my results, I would be categorized as ESFJ (extraversion, sensing, feeling, judging) personality type. ESFJs focus on the outside world and assess their experiences subjectively. They largely base their judgments on their belief system and on the effects of actions on people. ESFJs are literal and concrete, trusting the specific, factual information gathered through their physiological senses. They are often skilled at bringing out the best in people, and they want to understand other points of view. They are serious about their responsibilities, seeing what needs to be done and then doing it. Generally proficient at detailed tasks, they enjoy doing little things that make life easier for others. ESFJs seek structured, controlled environments, and tend to be good at creating a sense of order. They value the rule of law and expect

There are multiple theories of personality and leadership assessments that have proven effective in helping individuals achieve their full career potential. The “Big Five” theory of personality, for example, measures the five broad areas of personality, including extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience (Srivastava, 2015). Other types of assessments, such as the more simple leadership assessment we explored, simply measure leadership qualities, such as emotional intelligence and confidence. In exploring a couple of such resources in more depth, such as the leadership assessment provided by the University of Kent’s Career Enhancement Center, as well as the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator, it is clear that understanding more about oneself can lead to enhanced career choices.
