After the class exercise, I found out the result for my DISC assessment test was High I and High S. I stands for Influence, which means relating to social situations and communication. S stands for Steadiness, which means relating to patience, persistence, and thoughtfulness. All of the above descriptions are from the Wikipedia. As both I and S combine, the personality would be highly influential toward other people in a silent way. I think it is some what true toward my personality. I am the type of person who would provide suggestions for other, but I will not force them to follow.
I believed this exercise gave me another perspective of looking at different managerial types. It helped me to expand my understanding of different types of people in the managerial position.
I feel that these personality tests are pretty helpful for exactly the reason you mentioned, they let you look at another perspective of your personality. Maybe you never truly realized that you were influential, but now you can see how that applies to your personality.
ReplyDeleteYour analysis results seems to describe you perfectly. Although, I believe that this will give you an understanding of what you are at the point of time you took the test, i think, that if you took the test at a later time, after a couple of years maybe, then the results would be different. This could be because of your experiences with work, family or friends.
ReplyDeleteI agree, this exercise does help you understand different managerial types. It also help me understand how to make a decision that reaches out to these other managerial behaviors. This is helpful when you are working with other people.
