Survey Results
Big Five Style Survey The general consensus in academic psychology is that there are five …show more content…
I do agree with these reading because I am rather meticulous and, unfortunately, I do tend to excessively say or do what I have to in order to please others and avoid conflict.
Blake and Mouton The Blake and Mouton Managerial Grid is supposed to give the person surveyed an idea of what their leadership style is supposed to be like. The person who is taking the survey, ranks each question and then totals up the points, multiplying whatever number achieved by 0.2. The outcome of doing that multiplication is the number used to solve which leadership style the participant is. The partaker will end up with two numbers, for people and for task.

Myers-Briggs
This test also asked questions and displayed a result after all were answered. A 4-letter type formula according to Carl Jung’s and Isabel Briggs Myers’ typology will appear and explain the personality type revealed. I acquired the 4-letter code, ISFJ—which is: introvert, sensing, feeling, and judging. The ISFJ type description states that ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their “need to be needed.” I, personally, do not find this true of myself. I do not typically feel the need to be needed. I do tend to quiet down around people I am not too familiar with so I suppose the introvert is moderately true. However,
