Using the 5 dynamics tool, I discovered several working style characteristics about myself that I really had not previously thought about. The application of this new knowledge will improve the way that I work with other people in my education, my career and in my personal life. For example, I learned that if I partner with others whose strength and weakness are different from mine, working together as a whole we will obtain better results than we will if we work separately.

As a result of taking the 5 dynamics assessment, I discovered that I have valuable strengths that are especially beneficial in developing …show more content…
For instance, I learned that I am likely to lose momentum and enthusiasm for a project midstream and may profit from a motivating team-member who propels me into action.

In addition, I realized that I need to be able to make logical connections in order to learn in a way that promotes real understanding and long term memory. Furthermore, I discovered that setting goals and creating a plan that incorporates a checklist is profitable for me.
When comparing the computer assessment and the self-assessment, the results were somewhat similar but after much self-examination and reflection, I believe the self-assessment is a more accurate representation of my working and learning styles. I believe that I strongly exhibit several of the traits in the excite dynamic group that I feel would classify me as deliberate rather than stress …show more content…
On the other hand, the use of poor listening and language skills may create distrust and a cycle of waste, leading to poor communication and damaged relationships. In order to enter a cycle of value and avoid the cycle of waste, you must consider the emotional needs of the other person as you work toward understanding their point of view and at the same time avoid trying to win the argument, make judgments or place blame. As illustrated in the Ladder of Listening, to listen successfully, you must first compassionately listen to facts, then determine what the other person is trying to convey in order to find a common ground. In a recent conversation with my son, our conversation quickly entered a cycle of waste when I spoke to my son about his immature and irresponsible behavior. I was quick to place blame and make judgments which making him feel the need to defend himself. I did not successfully climb the ladder of learning or enter the cycle of value. In addition, on the conversation meter; I was brutally honest and earned a very low sincerity rating. I failed to listen to or consider facts and created a strained
