Order Description

MGMT-302 Individual Assignment #2 Winter 2015 Self-Assessment: The MBTI Personality Profiles

1st Part:
Personality Self-portrait. Start by writing a description of your most essential character traits or personality

attributes. You do not have to write an autobiography, just focus on generating a general sketch or profile of your self-

concept. What are the most salient features that define who you are? What makes you unique or different from other members

of your family, such as your brothers, sisters, cousins, or close friends? Are there characteristics that you have in

common with others who are close to you? In essence, generate a self-portrait but instead of using visual-arts media, your

tools consist of paper, ink, words, your self- awareness and your cognitive abilities. If you find that your self-portrait

is only a few sentences long, or no more than one brief paragraph; you may elaborate your self-portrait narrative by

describing yourself in terms of the various personality traits and personality dimensions discussed in chapter 4 of the

Greenberg textbook. For instance, how would you characterize yourself relative to each dimension in the “Big-5” model of

personality; how do you see yourself in terms of your locus-of-control; how do you respond when you are presented with new

challenges or responsibilities (e.g., self-efficacy); how do you respond in situations that are emotionally-charged or to

sudden emotional outbursts and anger directed towards you or someone close to you; what would you consider a viable

response if you learned that a work associate was intentionally sabotaging your work and spreading rumors to tarnish your

reputation; and so forth…

2nd Part
: Your Myers-Briggs/Keirsey/MMDI/Jungian Typology Profile. Once you develop the self-portrait described in the previous

paragraph, look at the video located at the URL link below. The video describes the Keirsey version of the MBTI personality

test and the 16 personality profiles that the MBTI generates. You can look at the entire video and follow the instruction

it provides to calculate your MBTI profile but the MMDI version can be completed online and you can still compare the

profile descriptions provided by both versions of the MBTI. To complete the MMDI go to the 2nd URL link below and click on

the button that states, “Personality Test MMDI.”

3rd Part:
The Reflective Essay. Please submit a copy of the items indicated for parts 1 & 2 along with a one-page, typewritten

reflective essay based on your initial self-profile and the feedback you received from the MBTI/Keirsey/MMDI/Jung Typology

inventories. Your reflective statement should summarize the profile and related feedback you received as well as your

personal views of the MBTI personality inventory. In specific terms, how accurately does it describe you and your initial

self- portrait? Your reflective statement should also address the following questions:
? Do you think this assessment provides an accurate and useful profile of your personality archetype? (Explain)
? In retrospect, did you gain any insights about yourself from the exercise? (Describe insights and/or critique the MBTI)
? Can you suggest a preferable personality assessment or an alternative method or approach to assess personalities?
? What are some benefits/liabilities of giving managers access to the MBTI profiles of employees & job applicants?
? Was this exercise a worthwhile investment of your time?
? Do you have suggestions that may lead to a more meaningful personality self-assessment exercise?
? Be sure to include your name and the course number om the top-right section of the 1st page of your reflective statement
