Between the two assessments, I found the Jung Typology test to be much clearer and more accurate. The DISC assessment contradicted itself on more than one point, and opposed some of what I learned in the Jung Typology test.
Upon review of the DISC assessment, I read that I had low Decisiveness, which meant that I solved familiar problems quickly, but when placed with an unfamiliar conflict, I struggled and approached it in a “calculated and deliberate manner.” To some extent, I feel that this is true of anyone. Who goes into unmarked territory blindly? In my various jobs, I’ve found that improvisation comes quite naturally for me, so I disagree with this statement. I do find validity in some other points, though. I can be extremely self-critical and I usually approach other people’s …show more content…
Then to go further, I had low marks in C, which suggests that I am “persistent, even when faced with resistance,” while also, simultaneously,
“non-committal.” I wish I understood how someone could be persistent without committing to an idea or a plan.
Overall, this test was not very satisfying; not because I did not like my results, but because I found them so unclear. However, the Jung Typology test made up for it. I feel as though I learned a lot from it, and the Myers Briggs test was one that I had heard of before this class. I was labelled ENFJ (Extravert, Introverted Intuition, Feeling, and Judging).
For the first category (E), it noted that my personal relationships are intense, personable, and warm. I’ve recognized that in myself, as well. I am very quick to become friends with people, and I find it easy to stay on good terms with my coworkers and managers. I have never left a job on bad terms, because I find it so easy to communicate positively with those I am around. In the second category (N), it explained that my personality type sees people through rose-colored glasses most of the time, even if they’re not worthy of it. This made me think
