So I guess as an entrepreneur, I am the one with no clear idea of what they are doing but determined to make it work. To me it was quite interesting to learn about my top strengths of character from the test I took this week although I am not a huge fan of such tests. The results determined as my top strengths Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence, Gratitude, Curiosity and Interest in the World, Humor and Playfulness, and Bravery and Valor. Now, this is tricky, because how could you possibly say something that sounds so good about you isn’t true.…
After reading a few chapters of Strengths Quest, I was instructed to participate in the Strengths Finder assessment (Anderson, Clifton, & Schreiner, 2006). This 30 minute assessment was an interesting tool that pointed out my greatest strengths. It also provided a detailed description of what having those strengths mean and examples of how they are prominent in a person 's life. After taking the StrengthsFinder survey, I discovered that my five dominant strengths are empathy, harmony, consistency, relator, and restorative.…

Assessment of The Whole Self The provision of evaluation entails the collection of data to identify, examine, assess, and address the problems, issues, and situations of clients in the counseling relationship.

Leadership self-analysis and potential As we have seen from this weeks readings there are a number of styles of leadership and multiple personality types. My strengths rely in focused detail and the ability to liaise, coordinate and support a diverse range of workers across different skill sets and cultures. A forward thinking approach taking into account overall objectives and business needs and applying individual tasks to the appropriate individual and teams while keeping all involved abreast of the bigger picture. While there are a number of positive aspects, it is important to also self identify any areas where it is not a strength. I believe that is important to understand ones limitations and work with them in mind.…
Becoming a great leader thankfully is something you can grow into, although it will be hard work. We have studied how leaders need to be self aware and have emotional intelligence, building on strengths and realizing that there is no one way to lead is a great place to start.

In this essay I will explore my top 10 desired attributes of a leader and make a plan of how to grow into them.…
According to the BOSI profile assessment that we all had to take, my primary Entrepreneurial DNA came up to Specialist as a Primary Entrepreneurial DNA and Innovator as my secondary. I felt the specialist DNA was spot on. According to Abraham (2011), the Specialist DNA is an entrepreneur with a primary specialist DNA will enter on industry and stick with it for 15 to 30 years.

Delaware North and the TD Garden give me endless possibilities and a possible, stable future, which is something nice to think about.…

According to the Gallup Strengths Finder 2.0, I do not have any woo, which is a strength used to make others feel comfortable and connected, in other words, I am not influential (Rath & Conchie, 2008). I feel there is a charisma about me which allows for deep connections with other people. I do not feel the Gallup Strengths Finder 2.0 is correct on that portion of my assessment. Or it is possible my mood that day affected the assessment. Anyhow, charisma is a charm that gives the ability to inspire, enthuse, interest or affect others by means of personal influence.…
Carl Rogers believed that the human organism has an underlying actualizing tendency which aims to develop in ways that maintain or enhance the organism and move it toward a certain dependency. The actualizing tendency is positive, indicator and present in all living things. It involves not only the tendency to meet what Maslow’s basic needs that is air, food, water but also more generalized activities. The thought of this tendency is the reason the theory holds all creative motivations as well as pleasure seeking tendencies. Each individual has a fundamental instruction to fulfill their potential.…
PERSONAL HISTORY STATEMENT I developed strong work ethic, perseverance, and a good sense of humor from my parents. I have known the value of education since a very tender age; so I have always seen the sky has my limit. Every day is a gift to be embraced wholeheartedly. It is our job to fill that day with a hopeful and meaningful purpose. It has been said that “the most important thing in life is to live your life for something more important than your life” William James.…
Zachery Roberson Virtues and Actions I participated in taking a survey created by the University of Pennsylvania to evaluate your personality on 24 different characteristics. The purpose of the questionnaire is to find which of the 24 character traits are your strengths. The survey is 240 questions long and is comprised of a series of statements, most of these statements ask how much you think the statement sounds like you, but several of them ask how other people see you. After taking the test, it listed several of my strongest character traits, the top 3 traits being perspective wisdom, self-control and self-regulation, and love of learning. When looking at the reading the description of what perspective wisdom is, I would say that it isn 't describing the correct attribute.…

Self reflection is the mental process that acquires knowledge and understanding through thoughts and experience which helps encourage self awareness. This essay focuses on assessing my objectives and how I have developed my skills from the beginning of this semester until now. At the start of semester A, I wasn’t confident in preparing for the skills sessions and workshops. I wasn 't always able to find the correct answers to the workshop questions set which made it relatively difficult for me to participate in lectures despite finding myself at the library every other day. I began by listening to knowledge based lectures online and making notes alongside the recommended reading given by my lecturers or the module guide.…
