The Self - Assessment Test

Based on the Clifton Strengths Assessment my top five strengths are strategic, deliberative, learner, maximize and individualization. As an individual, I rarely look into my weakness. I believe that when your too focused on your weakness, you forget about your strengths. Everything the book said is true, and we need to take the time to look at our strengths and make it perfect. It is true that in this world or the school system, we are taught to look at our weakness and correct it so that we can become stronger in our life. This book brings out the truth that I longed to hear for a long time. Invariably, I hear my professor tell their students that for them success in life, they must practice and look at our weakness. This book proves it wrong because for us to become successful, we must stay to our strengths’ path.

5. Your strengths are highlighted so you can concentrate on them and solve problems you are having in other areas, for instance. If your strengths are, good personal skills and tremendous patients, then you might overcome a later problem easily by deciding to make a social call around a person’s house and discussing your concerns.

I participated in a series of Self-Assessments by Robbins and Judge (2008) to be conscious of my personality, to recognize how I work with others, and to figure out life in organizations. Organizational behavior is a dynamic force of research, advancing toward enriching and enhancing the workforce. First, I must understand myself toward becoming an effective employee, co-worker, or manager. As a result, I am directed toward the advancement of the knowledge of these discoveries. These self-assessments encompass the framework of my paper, and my responses are compared with abundant studies. Significantly, I exist as a being uniquely designed by God, but these self-assessment results deserve ample credit. Regardless, of classification from these self-assessments, covenantal approaches aligning with God’s law show relevance. However, I am captivated with these discoveries. In addition, I used the Organizational Behavior textbook by Robbins & Judge (2009); Organizational Communication Presentation by Fischer; “The Gospel and Personal Reflection” article by Fischer (2006); and “Toward a Periodic Table of Personality: Mapping Personality Scales Between the Five-Factor Model and the Circumplex Model” article by Anderson & Woods (2016).

I think this assessment help me to specifically name the things that I am good at. When I read each of them I could identify them in my life but I have never thought about them before in that specific and narrow way. Also, it was curious how things that I consider weakness appeared as strengths, like “competition”, which for me it was bad but now I can try to focus that in a better way to help me and help others. It is interesting that some of the strengths align with the values and passion that I have identified and it is a challenge for me to use them in a more intentional way to achieve many goals in my personal and academic

The self assessment test that is offered in unit 2, is a great help in understanding the areas that we re both strong, and weak in.Taking a self assessment is the first step towards becoming proactive in our learning. Becoming proactive in our learning (Bethel University, 2014), can help us make greater strides in the learning process.The Organizational Leadership program removes barriers to success that adult learners face (Bethel University, 2014). As a student in the Organizational Leadership Program, I took the assessment as well.I was surprised in the areas that I did well in.One area that I did well in , was management and leadership of people. I am a retail store manager, therefore I feel that this skill is a natural skill, that I embrace. Goal setting, is another skill that I feel confident in. Given my career as a manager, I have to set goals by the shift, and the day, as well as the week, and month.Planning, is another skill that I did well in, along with organization.The two go hand in hand in my daily activities, and you cant be an effective planner without being organized. The last of my top five skills would be, speaking.I am confident when I address others, and take the opportunity to do it often. As far a the five weakest skills, I would say that Mathematics would be at the bottom of the list, mostly due to lack of interest in math, that I have not put forth a lot of effort to succeed in this subject. Understanding technology, is my second worst weakness. I

Quiz 11-1: The self-assessment quiz aimed to explore my creative skills and define my creativity level. I scored 21 points, which means that my “personality and attitude are similar to those of creative people, including creative leaders.” I am very satisfied with this score because I consider myself a very creative person, especially at the workplace. Every day in the workplace, I look for more ways of self-improvement, which would allow me to deliver great results dealing with shorter deadlines.

Starting your own special events business is risky, and you need to be clear on

Every person has his or her own unique style of working. After reviewing all of the self-assessments, I believe I have a solid understanding of what it take to interact collaborate with my co-workers, I am able to establish good working relationships, resolve conflicts, and institute good leadership skills. Although, I have good enough skills to be effective, I need to continue learning to advance my skill sets. Just as every person is unique, every organization has its own unique style of working. The type of culture that controls the way employees work and behave in my office is very different from other organizations. By its nature, working for a staffing firm is all about adapting to the need of the client and candidate. As a recruiter

The Pearson Hall Self-Assessment Library contains several assessment tests that an individual may complete to determine his or her personality type and provides insight regarding skills and abilities. The assessment tests were extremely detailed. I completed three of the four sections which included personality insights, working with others, and life in organizations. After completing the assessments, I learned additional information about my personality type, strengths and weaknesses, and areas that require improvement. I feel that I will be able to apply what I have learned successfully within the organization as well as my personal life.

The personality assessment inventory tests provide results on my individual personality, values, motivation, decision making, communication, team skills, conflict skills, organizational structure preference, and stress. These results are broken down briefly in three parts and do not include any personal speculation or analysis as to their meaning. The application of these results are further applied and explains how the results noted from the tests and in the first step will make me a better employee, co-worker, and manager within my organization. These tests mentioned above are applied in conjunction with particular examples on how I can achieve becoming a better employee, co-worker, and manager. An explanation of how my personality and experiences were affected by the Holy Spirit is also discussed. Particularly, how potential weaknesses have become strengths with the guidance of the Lord.

After having an internal self-assessment, I realized I wanted to go to the gym more often. Being a college student gave me a sense of independency I did not receive will in grade school; however, this freedom became a blessing and a curse. No one was telling me when to go to bed or to go to every single class, but there was also no one encouraging me to eat healthy or exercise more. During the first few months I made it to the gym around once every week or once every two weeks, but I wanted to increase that frequency. Through this project my target behavior was to increase the amount of times I went to group exercise classes at the gym.

The self-assessment test, on page 22, of our textbook, was to help us to better understand our thoughts and beliefs regarding ethics and social responsibility. I scored a 37 and according to our text, I “tend to put ethics and social responsibility before profit” (Phillips/Gully, pg. 22)

Identify two areas of personal strength and two areas of personal weakness in being a self- motivated engaged student. Along with the above, this person is naturally gifted for greatness, but has faults like everyone else . Example, he employs independence , building mutually supportive relationships that helps him achieve his goals and dreams, while helping others to do the same. He accepts self- responsibility, seeing himself as the primary cause of outcomes and experiences. Yet, unwilling to participate in social activity ,

I am not a very confident person when it comes to dealing with people who I do not know well (introversion), thus I would have a harder time dealing with situation 2 compared to situation 1. I have average emotionality in my HEXACO and low sensitivity to criticism from the Self-Evaluation Scales assessment, so I would typically be reasonably receptive to negative feedback. However, I have low agreeableness, which indicates that I am likely to feel anger in response to perceived mistreatment.

Every individual has their own personality that is made up from a wide range of traits that combine and make each individual unique. By completing an Individual Assessment Scale, a questionnaire that measures your personality and other differences, an individual’s unique traits can be identified. The collection of unique traits identified after completing this questionnaire is not did not describe as positive or negative traits nor do you receive a good or bad score. The questionnaire was interesting in that it identified the personality and interests of myself and allowed me to compare this to others. It highlighted how different extremes of individual traits shape ones personality and determines how one would expect an individual to perform in everyday tasks, such as study habits. Two major models of personality, which are measured in the Individual Assessment Scale, include the big five also known as the HEXACO model and Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (RST) model. The HEXACO model was measured with a MiniIPIP6 questionnaire (R) while RST was measured using the Jackson 5 questionnaire. When these scales are completed you receive your score on these and other scales. These scores are used throughout this assignment to critically discuss my scores compared to the mean score of other participants who preformed the Individual Assessment Scale. The other participants are students who study personality and individual differences at Griffith University in 2016. The one HEXACO
