Assignment: Managing Individual Behavior
The SLP for this course involves making a personal assessment of a relevant set of skills, focusing on your strengths and identifying any weaknesses that may have been revealed. You will then be asked to create a plan by which you can "grow" your strengths and shore up your weaknesses. By the end of the project, you will have a personal management profile and action plan.
As we have discussed, your values and attitudes interact with your personality to create a strong effect on your work life. The fit between an individual's personality and a company's "style" is essential to job satisfaction. Someone who is risk-averse, for example, would probably be unhappy at 3M, a company with a reputation for innovation and risk-taking. Understanding the impact of your own personality on others helps you build productive work relationships with peers, subordinates, and bosses, alike.
Refer to the required and optional readings for this module, and any other readings which will help you in understanding personality styles and how they affect organizational effectiveness. Remember to follow Trident's guidelines for masters-level writing. (See The Student Guide to Writing a High-Quality Academic Paper.)
Assignment
Click on this link to access and complete the Jung Typology personality test. After you complete the test, you will want to read the description, but in order to fully understand what this test measures, you should also review "Personality Type explained". Then review the pages on career choices, learning style and communication skills. Incorporate this information in formulating your responses to the questions below.
You will need to include the actual results in an appendix at the end of your paper. (Note: This appendix requirement will likely increase your paper's Turnitin similarity score; your professor is aware of this.)
Prepare a 2- to 3-page essay that addresses the following:
How does my personality type affect my career and effectiveness at my job?
Refer to the required and optional readings for this module, and any other materials which will help you in understanding personality styles and how they affect organizational effectiveness. Bring in at least two sources from your module to add depth to your discussion (citing the materials and including them in your Reference section). Remember to follow Trident's guidelines for masters-level writing. (See The Student Guide to Writing a High-Quality Academic Paper.)
• Complete the assessment according to the guidelines and include the actual results in an Appendix at the end of your paper.
• Be sure to clearly discuss the following in your essay:
o What did the test reveal about you?
o What can you infer from this test about your strengths and weaknesses?
o How does what you have learned from your module background materials about your personality type affect your motivation? Is this limited to a specific type of situation?
o What specific steps can you take to increase your strengths and build up weaknesses?
