...This paper will breakdown the personality type of an ESTJ and how they fit in the workplace setting. The Jung Typology Test is a test written by Carl Jung and Isabel Briggs Meyers that identifies peoples personalities based on the answers given to certain personality questions. The test will give you your personality in four letters, mine being ESTJ, where each of the letters describes a certain part of your personality. Based on the information I have found on my personality type, I know what jobs I would work best in, what learning style works best for me, how my communication skills affect me at my workplace, and even other famous people who are also ESTJ’s. This paper will go into detail of each of the four letters of ESTJ, being Extroverted, Sensing, Thinking, and Judging, and how I have applied them in my daily workplace. It will also tell how I react and interact with those of the other personality types as well....

Jasmine Caldwell 11/16/2014 Jasmine Caldwell 11/16/2014 PSY 101 Personality & Intelligence Paper * Personality Test The personality test that I had taken was called “Leverage Your Personality Type”. From the beginning, I did not approve of this website being valid, just based upon looks and as the old saying says “don’t judge a book by its cover”. As the test came to a close it gave me a type of ISFP: Introvert (11%), Sensing (12%), Feeling (25%), and Perceiving (11%). Including those results, it also said that I have a slight preference of Introversion over Extraversion, Sensing over Intuition, Perceiving over Judging and a moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking. The second time I took the test it gave me different results. INFJ: Intorvert (22%), Intuitive (12%). Feeling (38%), and Judging (1%).

...My first think piece paper for this class is about my personality type and it is quite interesting. I have never taken this personality test before and I’m not sure if this is the same test that the military uses to determine the type of personality that we are as service members. My personality test revealed that I’m INTJ (introversion, intuition, thinking, and judgment). INTJs are one of the rarest of the sixteen psychological types and account for approximately 1-2% of the population. The MBTI assessment was developed from the work of prominent psychiatrist Carl G. Jung in his book Psychological Types. Jung proposed a psychological typology based on the theories of cognitive functions that he developed through his clinical observations. From Jung's work, others developed psychological typologies. Jungian personality assessments include the MBTI instrument, developed by Isabel Briggs Myers and Katharine Cook Briggs, and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter, developed by David Keirsey. Keirsey referred to INTJs as Masterminds one of the four types belonging to the temperament he called the Rationals. Even though Mr. Keirsey has considered my personality type as that of a mastermind, I’m sure that my superiors and peers would laugh at the thought of such a thing. I am comfortable working alone and tend to be less sociable than other people. I’ve been in the U.S. Navy for 23 years and I’m in a senior leadership position. I don’t always lead, as part of training junior personnel...

I really didn’t understand what that meant at first, but once I study what the meant it gave me a better understanding of things. I hope that being Intuitive helps me to have better insight on my class and the needs of my other classmates. We are all her together to help each other and encourage each other. We all have feelings and we should get to know and understand what class mates are feeling are. Judging we can all be there for each other it and be like a advocate or a judge in scene to take charge and oversee and not necessarily judge others.

...formulation of team roles and responsibilities. The analysis of this critical incident will be referenced to the Kolb model that consists of concrete experience, reflective observations, abstract conceptualisation and active experimentation. On 30th September 2009, I had a significant experience where I took part in a communications exercise facilitated by my quite engaging KOLB tutor. The purpose of the exercise was to demonstrate the differences between one-way and two-way communication. Students were split into pairs where one student would sit behind the other. The student in front was given a blank A4 piece of paper and a pen. The student sitting behind them was given an A4 piece of paper with a series of shapes printed on it. The object was for the student sitting behind to tell the student sitting in front how to replicate the shapes onto their blank A4 piece of paper. The only rule was that the student listening to the instructions was not aloud to speak or engage in any communication with the student behind them. On the completion of that exercise, the students swapped positions and proceeded to do the exercise again, however this time both students were aloud to converse freely with each other. During the exercise, I saw other students looking frustrated, confused and uncertain. During the exercise, the tone of the student giving me...

...goals” Introduction Carl Gustav Jung (1875 – 1961) a Swiss born psychologist and psychiatrist was the founding father of the theory and methodology known as ‘Analytical Psychology’. In his early years Jung studied with and was heavily influenced by Freud. But would later have fundamental concerns with regard to Freud’s theories going on to develop his theories and practice of ‘Analytical Psychology’. Jung’s legacy and its impact on modern day psychology and the ‘psychologisation of religion’ in particular spirituality and the New Age movement are immense. Many of Jung’s original theories and methodology still influences the way psychologists and psychoanalysts practice today. Psychological concepts such as ‘archetype’, ‘collective unconscious’, ‘the complex’ and ‘synchronicity’ are Jungian precepts. The ‘Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) which is used today to measure an individuals perception of their surroundings and how their decisions are formed, is based on Jung’s ‘Typological theory’. Jung’s father being a pastor and his mother an atheist (in modern day terms) from an early age gave Jung the opportunity to consider and reflect on both “sides” of the religious vs non-believer question, along with the subsequent impact and conflicts within his own psyche. Throughout Jung’s life he expressed a keen interest in nature and spiritual matters, both of which would go onto profoundly influence his work. Originally trained as a clinician Jung was drawn into (at the time, unfashionable)...

...Introduction Teams are a vital part of doing work within the workplace and the Department of Defense. I am assigned to a team for my day-to-day work duties and I am often times assigned to a team developed to resolve a specific issue. In this paper I will attempt to describe the group dynamics of my team and how the team leader impacts the teams performance. The Team The team that I am assigned to is one of five within my department. The team is designed to cover several areas within Logistics and is primarily responsible for Integrated Logistics policy and the associated systems. The team consists of eight members of varying backgrounds, education, and ages. Each member has an assigned area of responsibility of which they are considered subject matter experts (SME). This responsibility requires that the SME be up-to-date and aware of any changes that will impact the current policy or business processes associated with it. This particular team is very productive and well functioning because the members are very well rounded and mission-oriented. Most team members not only know their area of responsibility, but also are capable of covering the area of another teammate in their absence. The team members are not only concerned with the other team members at work, but area also concerned with the well-being of the members themselves and their families. Our team celebrates the birthdays and other major events in the lives of its members. The team will also...

... Discovering what type of leader I am has required some self-assessment. I was able to glean a new perspective on my leadership abilities by taking a few surveys/tests to find out my personality, leadership, and learning style. I was surprised at the accuracy of the survey/test outcomes. One of the tests was the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI); this test defined my personality type as an ENFJ (extraversion, intuition, feeling, judgment). I identify very much with the description of ENFJ. When taking the Self-Assessment Tests: The Grossman & Valiga Leadership Characteristics and Skills Assessment I was assessed as having good perception of a good leader, but only moderate perceived leadership ability. This was confirmed when I took the Davis Plus assessment my score of 44 “suggests I am using key leadership skills well—but I ask a co-worker or partner for his or her opinions, to be more certain. These assessments are impressively accurate in my opinion. I believe that knowledge is power. By understanding my personality type, leadership, and learning style, I have clearly gained some insight into my strengths and weaknesses. It opens opportunities for growth where I am weak and builds confidence in my strengths. Finding out that the MBTI test defined my personality type, as an ENFJ was very interesting. It is easy to digest such a lovely representation of my personality type when described with such palatable adjectives as: giving, people...

...pressures, and pushing that I had received from my parents and my family members. So in 2006 I decided that it was time, I looked around to a variety of different colleges and decided that I wanted to attend University of Phoenix Online because I did not want to deal with going to classes, instead I preferred to stay home and be comfortable. After my associates in accounting I decided that because I could still not find a permanent job, I would go ahead and pursue my bachelors of arts in accounting as well. When I was in my last class of my bachelor’s degree, I was toying around with going after my master’s in business administration, and then what will I specialize in. I had been looking for jobs for quite some times on the Internet and in the papers for quite some time and have been sending out hundreds of resumes and have received no responses. I figured that if I went for a master’s degree it would open many more doors in the future. It was a tough decision on whether I wanted to pursue that master’s in business, after all I had been going to school now for the past four years, or if I should just stop at my bachelor’s degree and look for a job. It turned out that finding a job was not working out with the job market in California the way it was, so I was contemplating why I should go after my MBA. Some of the answers that I came up with is that, it could help in improving my people skills, continue to develop my analytical skills that can help me identify, analyze and address business...

...[pic] CARL JUNG 1875 - 1961 Dr. C. George Boeree [pic] Anyone who wants to know the human psyche will learn next to nothing from experimental psychology. He would be better advised to abandon exact science, put away his scholar's gown, bid farewell to his study, and wander with human heart throught the world. There in the horrors of prisons, lunatic asylums and hospitals, in drab suburban pubs, in brothels and gambling-hells, in the salons of the elegant, the Stock Exchanges, socialist meetings, churches, revivalist gatherings and ecstatic sects, through love and hate, through the experience of passion in every form in his own body, he would reap richer stores of knowledge than text-books a foot thick could give him, and he will know how to doctor the sick with a real knowledge of the human soul. -- Carl Jung Freud said that the goal of therapy was to make the unconscious conscious. He certainly made that the goal of his work as a theorist. And yet he makes the unconscious sound very unpleasant, to say the least: It is a cauldron of seething desires, a bottomless pit of perverse and incestuous cravings, a burial ground for frightening experiences which nevertheless come back to haunt us. Frankly, it doesn't sound like anything I'd like to make conscious! A younger colleague of his, Carl Jung, was to make the exploration of this "inner space" his life's work. He went equipped with a background in Freudian theory, of course, and with an apparently inexhaustible...

...knowing each individual leader unique set of qualities, characteristics, and strengths can be beneficial to the leadership role, by giving a perspective to leadership behavior (2013, p. 33). The question in this case is; does leader’s self insight assessments proves effective for learners and offers opportunities for improving leadership? In constructing this paper it was found that chapter three and chapter four contains a total of eight leader’s self-insight exercises in the form of questionnaires, scenarios and activities, all providing self-assessments for learners and offering opportunities for leadership roles. The question remains how will we perform under pressure and respond as a work group leader while, focusing on how the leader’s self-insight contributes to the learner’s leadership development. We should find the answers from the following insights; T-P Leadership Questionnaire: An assessment of style, Are you Ready?, measuring substitutes for leadership, big five personality, measuring locus of control, instrumental and end values, what’s your thinking style , and personality assessment Jung’s typology.

...Introduction With the current ever changing business environment, leaders are required to be strategic and resolute to meet the demands of the business of the environment (Byham, Smith & Paese 2002). The purpose of this paper is to create my own personal development plan based on the Central Michigan University (CMU) leadership competency model, leadership theories and personality tests. This will serve as a framework to allow me to identify my own weaknesses and strengths, and develop my leadership capacity, allowing myself to be able to achieve the vision I set for myself and the current business environment. The vision I had for myself is to enter the Marketing Industry, focusing on business development, and ultimately becoming an entrepreneur. Business development has been said to be a synthesis of strategic analysis, marketing and sales (The Editor, 2012). The competencies required are ‘strong research skills’, to evaluate the business environment, ‘people and communication skills’, to build partnership and rapport with other organization and with a ‘deal closing instinct’, to ensure closing of sales (The Editor, 2012). This leadership development plan will be helping me in preparing to be a future business development director or an entrepreneur at the end of my career. Lastly, I would seek a Major of the Singapore Armed Forces, who has seen me in a leadership role, to provide feedback on my personal leadership development plan. Central Michigan University...

...Statistical analyses of data from three groups of Swedish public managers (n ¼ 385) revealed virtually no significant differences in behaviour between female and male managers. Regardless of whether there is a female or male majority of employees or a female or male majority of managers, no effect on leadership behaviour occurs. Originality/value – A number of studies indicate that managers’ behaviour is different in different types of organizations. This study suggests, therefore, that, independent of gender, organizational and demographic characteristics modify leadership behaviours, thus explaining similarities in leadership behaviour.
