Taking both the Jung Typology and the DISC assessments were interesting to me. The

results I received did not surprise me too much because I have taken a few personalities based

test before. The difference in those times and this is that this time I was careful and really took

The first assessment that I completed was the DISC assessment. The DISC assessment

showed me four components of my behavior. It showed me how I approach problems and …show more content…

I am calm and steady and

and rude about it. I feel like I currently lead people with authority and speaking loud. I want to

work on that and become someone more reasonable and relatable to others. I believe that a true
