The Continuing Saga of Prosperous Snow |
Istijlál (Majesty), 5 ‘Azamat (Grandeur), 166 BE – Wednesday, May 20, 2009 about 11:02 PM Pacific Time I took a personality test and these were my results. As a manager, I tend to be there when I’m needed, I offer low-key stability and strength as needed to both the people and the situation. As a manager, I’m patient and will take a lot of time to help the individuals on my team. As a manager, I’m generally easy going; all though this easy going exterior may mask a compulsive interior. I have a knack of making people feel welcome and valued. I enjoy working within a team and I’m careful to ensure that member of the team are content in their work. I need to use this is a strength. I’m consistent and trustworthy. I’m a steady day-to-day planner. I’m a reliable colleague. I offer strong support within my team. I have relationships with colleagues and customers that I built carefully over the years. I diligently to finish any task I start. People trust me, but I should occasionally try to surprise them. Since being steady is a virtue, I need to make sure it does not turn into stubbornness. I need to make sure that people do not take me for granted. I need to ensure my team reciprocates my support for them. I need to take time to get to know people before building relationships because some colleagues may feel excluded. There is a possibility that finishing the task to meet a deadline is more important than working diligently. People can depend on me. I’m sensitive to the needs of others because of my skill at reading non-verbal communication and signs. Therefore, I should look for a job where these qualities are essential. Since I find it difficult to break away from someone with a problem who is seeking my help, I find myself running late to appointments. I need to learn to say No more often. I’m an active listener and offer myself as a sounding board, with a sincere wish to help others. Therefore, I attract many hard luck stories. Since I’m known for my sympathy and willingness to listen I can find myself being submerged in situations that are none of my doing and I do not have time to see to my own needs. I actively listen to other people and offers words of encouragement. This gets me disheartened when the same individual returns repeatedly with the same story. In these situations, I realize the person just wants to bitch and I need to tell that person to “Do something or shut up!” I have a talent for creating an harmonious workplace and since I view confrontations as a negative, I don’t like confrontation. Anyway, that is what I learned from the personality test. |
