Synthesis

Hopefully, the synthesis of this assessment will enable me find out the best way to improve the weaknesses I poses and also enhance the strengths I have. By determining these characteristics, I am able to know how best I can sell my strengths to a possible employer and how to align everything in order to fit in an enviable career in the corporate world. I hope to achieve a new perspective with this synthesis that will enable me to reach my goals in life.

I fully identify with my social personality, and I also count it as a strength. However, there are several barriers that hinder me from fully exploiting my potential as a social person. Since I believe in being a leader as much as I believe in working with people and teams, it is important that I find ways to improve my leadership skills. Leadership and integrity closely interact because a leader with integrity gains more trust from their followers (Engelbrecht et al., 2017). There needs to be an improvement on integrity to enable me to achieve my leadership goals. Some of the notable factors that could be possibly affecting my integrity is my association with teams that have slackers, committing to more than I can deliver, and preference to finish my assignments without seeking help, hence getting overwhelmed in the process.

It is obvious that I like participating in teams and helping people, but from the test I have realized that some of these gestures are not really working on my favor in terms of improving my personal performance. If my team scores lowly, so do I, hence affecting my overall score of integrity. This also affects my level of determination as it was pointed out as a weakness in my part from one of the assessment tests. As a resolution, I think it is best to find better ways of helping people and also allowing myself to learn from other leaders, supervisors, or management. One of the solutions suggested by the richardstep.org test is to start out my own project and use it to help others because it identifies with my strengths of initiating, leading, and managing projects. By doing so, there would be enough room for me to exercise my Overall, qualities like strategic thinking, good communication skills, team playing, and resourcefulness increase my chances of perming well in the careers that I am inclined to.

My spirituality tops the list of my strengths, although I may have not thought of it as being one. From the assessment, I have discovered that I am clear and protective of my spirituality, which also forms many of the values that I believe in. I let people know what I believe in even if they do not agree with the believes and values that I hold, and also would respect those people who respect my own beliefs, my family, and my community. I also do not compromise these beliefs even if they go against some of the values of the organization that I work or associate with. On the downside, my personality score indicated that I scored lowly on perspective as it was indicated as one of my weaknesses. I now understand how this makes a difference in my social life and how it affects my relationship with other people. Diversity is a common thing in many organizations and social circles today and blending in could be a challenge if people fail to understand the importance of accepting other people’s opinions and perspectives just as they would with the other person (Roberson, 2019). While making what I believe in clear is important, it may not be the best thing to bombard a person with during the first encounter because it may limit future interactions with the person and ultimately affecting other great qualities that I have. The possible solution to this problem may be to sell other strengths that I have instead during the first interactions and then using my diversity as an opportunity to learn and offer different perspectives of issues. In the same way, I should be able to respect other people’s beliefs and perspectives even if they differ with mine and find a way to make our diversities work towards achieving the goals of an organization.

I believe that I have a good balance between my social life and personal space because I take time to reflect on thoughts before discussing them as well as taking time to read books or attend trainings for self-nourishment. My purpose of reading and constantly training is to improve my ability to think strategically. Strategic thinking is an important skill in project management as it helps people to plan, integrate, and carefully utilize resources they have to achieve the goals they set. In strategic thinking, a person should have the ability to weigh different perspectives and opinions to find out which one works better (Dhir et al., 2018). According to the assessment tests for my raw materials, letting people assist me in projects through their opinions an accommodating other people’s opinions are weaknesses that may hinder my performance in the field. For improvements, I need to be allowed other people to work with me as well as take into considerations their opinions and help.

Other good qualities that work for my advantage include my sense of humor, kindness, gratitude, humility, honesty, bravery, love, and courage. These traits complement the positive traits that I already have and my social personality. They are good traits that can prepare someone for the future roles that require working with larger groups of people. There is a lot of interaction for business reasons that happen in the corporate industry such as meeting clients, holding seminars and training, doing presentations, and discussing business all in the effort to make sales and also growth. I believe these traits are learned with time, exposure, and constant practice. For example, a good salesman is also associated with good communications skills. In my assessment, my communications skills scored higher than the salesmanship because of little experience in the sales field. However, with continued interactions with clients, and help from the team, supervisors, or management that I work with, I should be able to polish my salesmanship skills and.
