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. E- Extravert (69%) The first temperament I will be discussing is the extravert temperament. After completing the Jung Typology Test, I received a score of 69% in this category. Extravert is defined as “an outgoing, overtly expressive person” (www.dictonary.com). I feel I scored relatively high in this category because I am a very social, outgoing, fun person. This temperament validates my personality because I grew up in a large Italian family, and I also attended a large high school which allowed me to learn how to speak up, be heard and to not be shy. Within my work life, I have been a U.S. Air Force Security Forces member for 8 years, and I feel that when you work in a Law Enforcement career field you learn valuable skills such as, how to use your verbal words to diffuse a situation and also how to speak and be sociable to any person you may come in contact or have an interaction with. In the article, “Extraversion and Reward Processing”, the author states that, “Reward processes have played an
Personality theories, or models, are metaphors for describing something which is intrinsically indescribable, the human personality. Currently, one of the most popular approaches among psychologists for studying personality theory is the Five-Factor Model (FFM) or Big Five dimensions of personality. This essay will explore the 'Big Five ' personality constructs and seek to explain how useful they are to understanding how people are likely to perform in a work situation. In conclusion, this essay will also discuss some of the arguments against the relevance and accuracy of personality testing within the employment context.
The world would be a lot better of a place if everyone got along and knew how to communicate effectively with one another. There are several different personalities at any given workplace. “According to typological theory, each of us is born with a predisposition for certain personality preferences” (Kroeger pg11 para4). The Myers-Briggs Personality assessment is the most effective way to determine one’s personality type. The test uses different markers to determine how one is stimulated and exerts energy, gather information, make decisions, and living structure. At the completion of the test one will get personality type that is comprised of four letters. The test was developed based off of Carl Jung and Isabel Briggs-Myers’ psychological research on personalities and later dissected into Otto Kroeger’s book, “Type Talk at Work.” This book gives one the tools to determine what one’s personality is and then goes into great detail about one’s strengths and weaknesses and how it applies to to real life situations. My personality description is ENFP; Extravert, iNtuitive, Feeling, and Perceiving. The following are details regarding and ENFP personality type examining a holistic view including personal and work place interactions. Everything is based on insights gained from real world experiences and interactions.

As requested, I took the Jung Typology Assessment. The results revealed my personality to be ISFJ (Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging). The first characteristic listed is the desires to serve others. An ISFJ is loyal, sometimes taken for granted, bad at delegating, but produces superior quality work. Methodical, accurate, and possess an excellent memory are more characteristics of the ISFJ personality type. They work well in a small group and make reliable coworkers; however, they tend to be awkward in a supervisory capacity. Not only is an ISFJ a great employee but they are extremely family oriented and dedicated to their intimate group of friends. If a friend or family member is in need of emotional support an ISFJ is by their side without
Hello, I’m Joshua Dudley and the results I got for my Jung Typology Test was on point for the kind of person I am. In the Humanmetrics Jung Typology Test my letters were ENFJ. ENFJs are the benevolent 'pedagogues' of humanity. They have tremendous charisma by which many are drawn into their nurturant tutelage and/or grand schemes. Many ENFJs have tremendous power to manipulate others with their phenomenal interpersonal skills and unique salesmanship (butt). All of the letters have different meanings. (E)- Extravert (34%), (N)- iNtuitive (9%), (F)- Feeling (19%), and (J)- Judging (28%) and these for letters ENFJ make up the type of person I am. I also had to find a two letter temperament for my personality. The two Letters I think that fit me is (NF)- “The Idealists” which my primary
Upon completion of the Jung Typology Test, I realized that I fell in the middle of two of the types listed. I received the results for Introverted Intuitive Thinking Judging (INTJ). My results by percentage were Introvert (9%) iNtuitive (9%) Thinking (3%) Judging (28%). The second type was Introverted Intuitive Feeling Judging (INFJ) because I received three percent in the Thinking category. After reading the descriptions and career choices, I feel I am more related to the INFJ than the INTJ. Knowing my personality type assist me with school because it explains my need to understand what I am trying to write about before I write it. It also explains why I feel as if I am an Introvert at home and at times I have feeling of being an Extrovert.
I was an ENFP type on the Humanmetrics Jung Typology Test. My results were 28% Extravert, 12% iNuitive, 44% Feeling, and 3% Perceiving. I agree with the majority of the findings. I am definitely an extravert. When I was very young I always tried to find something I liked or something unusual about the cashier or sale person so I could comment on it. I would say I really like your rings, earrings, hair, etc. I did this because it made the person smile and she would usually start a conversation.
After taking the two personality tests, I feel as though I definitely learned something about myself. The Jung typology test revealed that my personality type is INTJ, and while I was reading the description on the website I found that I could relate to almost everything in the description. What I read about this personality type helped me to understand a little bit about myself. For instance, the website said that most INTJs have trouble with personal relationships, due to their need for directness and sensibility. I often find myself confused and annoyed when people try to beat around the bush, I’m not one for taking hints, and now I can see that that quality is tied to my personality type.
After taking the four surveys, I have a better understanding of myself. The surveys help me decide which track I should head toward in the future as well as which part of my personality I should improve.
The online Jung Typology Test was a very interesting exercise. The test pointed out certain things about my personality type that I will be examining in the course of this class. It may give me some important insights into my personal and professional decisions about family, career and life. I have worked in municipal government for over 38 years. I have done budgets, human resources, and day to day supervision of several city departments. The majority of that time has been within management of two major international airports. In that time I managed employees, and I was managed by executive level leadership. Employee supervision was a great learning experience. I supervised employees who came to work to do their jobs, and other subordinates

Many different people have extremely different personality types such as, perfectionist, helper, leader, adventurer, and peacemaker. I am a variety of personalities from perfectionist to unorthodox.

I am extremely sociable and I enjoy the comfort of talking to friends. Even though sometimes I may be confused, I have the strength to straighten out. I have the kind of personality that will allow people to be who they want to be. I look at people the way they want to be looked at unconditionally. Last, I tend to get nervous and worried in tense situations. I have always been this way, but it goes away
The DISC assessment, similar to the Jung-Typology, I felt was not as accurate and I
According to the results, my score for the behavior in the JUNG Typology Test is ISTJ which stands for Introversion, Sensing, Thinking, Judgement. The reasons that this is a satisfaction for me is because ISTJs we are often called inspectors. It clearly describes my personality for the sense of right and wrong, especially in the area of interest and/or responsibility (Perceiving with five senses). I am noted for devotion to duty and punctuality is a watchword of the ISTJ. Another behavior to use on the daily basis is that I like to use the highest efficiency when employing a step-by-step approach (Attending to step by step experience). For example, I like to carry a project through, even at the expense of mine own health.
The INFJ personality is known to be the world rarest personality type and often misunderstood. This type stand for a percentage of less than 2% of the overall world population according to Holm (2009), the majority of that percentage being female and some famous INFJ that can be named are Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and Mother Teresa. My INFJ in academic and business milieu: from the past week assignment, my preferred four letters chosen base on the instructions received from Myers-Briggs type indicator were INFJ, which stands for Introverting, iNtuiting, Feeling and Judging. For this week assignment I was very surprise after taking the Jungian test to discover that my personality type fours letter were confirmed to be the same INFJ. Having my conformed INFJ profile means that in business milieu, my creativity and sense of responsibility come in first. Although as an INFJ I’m strongly introverted, I nevertheless highly care about my relationship with other individuals. At work I’m open to communication and always available when it comes to help colleagues to carry out on tasks or explaining work procedures. However, my personality type also implies that I can have sudden need for personal time away from others, which is my way to recharge and regain my energy. In an academic milieu, I’m more focus on setting and reaching my goals; I get motivated by planning in advance my studying weeks and do a lot of efforts to meet my assignment deadlines. I can get emotionally
