Personality Assessment

Personal insights. The results of the assessment supported my internalized understanding of my personality. The score sheet reflects the following: Extraversion- two points, Agreeableness- nine points, Conscientiousness- ten points, Emotional Stability- three points, and Openness to Experience-ten points. The results mirrored the outcome of Jung’s Typology Test, where the statically results classified this learner’s personality as: Introverted, Sensing, Thinking, Judging (ISTJ).

Over the years I realized the importance of an evidence-based approach to my work; which has caused me to pay closer attention to this action.
The assessment’s accuracy of strategic thinking does not accurately represent my application of this skill. The assessment focused on this from an organizational perspective versus an individual perspective; nonetheless, I believe strategic thinking is important to the decision-making and problem solving.

My organization does meet my extrinsic needs. However, my intrinsic motivation is fading. I have been with the organization for 16 years and I no longer feel rewarded or challenged by the work. I preparing for a professional change, as my current organization no longer meets my motivational need.
Organizational change. Change is ever present in the world, and I accept that change is will always impact my personal, and professional growth. The assessment allowed my to fully examine my interpretation of change. I scored 27-points on the question exploring my general attitudes towards change. The score reflected a moderately positive attitude towards change. Despite have in firm understanding of change, I would much rather have a consistency and structure present during the process of change. The chaos that presents itself during times of change truly disrupts my
