Now, think about three of your current or past co-workers (no names, please).  If you had to choose an animal that would come closest to representing each of those co-workers, what would you choose for each? Why?

 

A variety of factors can have an influence on the quality of work in an organization. Despite the available choices, abilities, and resources, human resources remain one of the most crucial aspects of work engagement and outcomes. As a result, work and organizational psychology has received a lot of attention, which investigates labor practices, improves working circumstances, and assesses human relationships. To be effective in organizational psychology, one must first explain why understanding each personality type and trait is critical (Bourdage et al., 2017).

 

Past coworker 1: She reminds me of a puppy since she is sensitive and supportive of my thoughts. She regularly tells me that if I have negative sentiments or do misconduct at work, I must be hopeful about the consequences.

 

Past coworker 2: In my perspective, he has a rough demeanor. I adore and respect him for his straightforward and honest personality. We were able to have a more fluid flow of communication as a result of his approach. While leading and directing his teams, he has a powerful and persuasive demeanor.

 

Past coworker 3: In this case, I would compare his personality to that of a dolphin. His upbeat and kind demeanor is something I like. Furthermore, I believe he has the most unique and inventive thinking of the bunch. His ENFP personality traits enabled him in developing the best new ideas for the firm.
