personality profile paper

PERSONALITY PROFILE PAPER (10 Pts.)

The objective of this project is for students to explore and understand different personality types and how these differences influence and effect communication.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY: Each student will complete The Personality Profile (will be available on TITANium) and have someone you communicate with regularly, but not in this or my other classes, also complete the profile. Upon completion of the profiles, students will be given an explanation and further information on how to interpret the results.

STUDENT REPORT: With this knowledge of the results, you will write a paper with a minimum of 3 FULL pages. Your papers will be typed, double-spaced, 12 pt. font, Times New Roman, black ink only, and stapled together. Make sure your papers are free of grammatical and spelling errors ---- you will be graded on this. Your paper will discuss each of the following in paragraph form:

· List the personality color of yourself and your friend/partner [mention the type of relationship

you have with this person (i.e. friend, co-worker, parent, boyfriend, etc.)].

· According to the ‘Color Coded Motives’, discuss specifically your personalities for both

you and your friend/partner. (If you’re not blue, red, white, etc., I don’t want to hear

anything about these personalities.)

· Tell me how both of you are different AND how both of you are similar ?

· How are conflicts, disagreements or miscommunications handled in this relationship?

· Give an example of a conflict, disagreement or miscommunication you have had with this

person and discuss how you might deal with the situation now that you are more aware

of their personality type.

· Discuss how different personality types affect (positively or negatively) communication .
