SOLVING MY PEOPLE PUZZLE: PART 2 INSTRUCTIONS
This learning activity (i.e., Parts 1 and 2) will provide resources for describing, developing, and managing your personality (i.e., relational style: thinking; doing,

feeling; and relating to others) against the backdrop of various people puzzles (e.g., extrovert/introvert; project/people oriented; thinking/feeling/doing, etc.).

Interestingly, our interpersonal arena could be described as a bumper-human world as various behavioral pressures continually bless, bother, and bruise us.

Understanding that “personality pressure” is a felt experience that often reveals what makes us tick and get ticked off with different people empowers us to become

personality-, emotionally-, and relationally-wise. It comes as no surprise to realize that how we think, feel, and relate differently will influence our relationships,

even the people-helping relationship. Keep in mind that it really does not matter what your personality is. What matters most is that you learn to control it through

appropriate resources and best fit strategies rather than allowing your personality to be in control.

Overview of Part 2:

• In Part 2, the student will demonstrate fit by aligning his particular relational style with each of the main D.I.S.C styles.This process informs an important query:

“How to Become the Me I Want to Be?” The student will discuss how his/her particular style evidences attention to each styles’ strengths, blindspots, listening

patterns, as well as style preferences and priorities.
• In Part 2, in anticipation of this course’s counseling scenario, the student will demonstrate fit with a predetermined careseeker (i.e., Bruce, Joshua, Brody,

Justin, or Melissa) from the case study Crossroads: A Story of Forgiveness (see Module/Week 1 > Reading & Study).
• Finally, the student will identify and solicit a person to be the mentor in this project. As a result of taking 2 free abridged assessments (i.e., DISC and MBT-I), a

common behavioral language will be used in the mentorship. This action supports student’s efforts to “Become the Me I Want to Be.”

(Solving My People Puzzle: Part 2 is due by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of Module/Week 3.)

SMPP Part 2 Instructions:
In Part 2 of Solving My People Puzzle, the student will describe best fit strategies for the development and management of relational styles. Directions are provided

below.
 Now that you have gained a basic understanding of your relational style, refer to Part 1 as necessary to complete Part 2. If necessary, add to or clarify the Part 1

Report before writing this paper. For example, Part 2 includes the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (M-BTI) assessment (i.e., “HumanMetrics”). After completing that

assessment, you may want to add further insight to your Part 1 information. Review Kollar’s (2011) discussion of the M-BTI (ch. 17) after taking the M-BTI.
 Identify and solicit a wise person for mentorship. This person may ultimately secure and support your personal and professional growth and development; for now,

he/she will only need to help you complete this assignment:
• On the first day of the module/week, email this person requesting partnership in completing this assignment. Since language is everything in the development of an

effective mentorship, ask him/her to take 2 free assessments (include directions and links below) and to email confirmation of completion with a concise identification

of his/her DISC (e.g., I have a dominant cautious temperament: DC) and M-BTI (e.g., I am typed as an extrovert who prefers to think from the gut and not have more than

1 or 2 things unfinished at a time: ENTJ) indexes. As a result, common language will be acquired to help both effectively engage a future mentorship. Ask for email

confirmation to be returned within 2 days of receipt.

• A free 10-minute DISC assessment (abridged) may be taken through the following link: http://discpersonalitytesting.com/ When the site opens:

A short, free M-BTI assessment (Jung Personality Test) may be taken through the following link: http://similarminds.com/jung.html
Ignore initial prompt for age description; only give attention to questions under this heading:

• Refresh your relational style description by comparing/contrasting your DISC description with a different version of the M-BTI assessment (i.e., free

“HumanMetrics”). Self-administer this assessment, capture the brief report, and paste it on to the page after your mentor’s report. To go immediately to this free

assessment, click on http://www.HumanMetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes1.htm. Click on “DO IT” button. Your HumanMetrics score will look like the material pasted below.

After the “HumanMetrics” is completed, compare your DISC profile with the MBTI through the following web site: http://www.internalchange.com/PPSMBO-231.pdf

Concisely answer the following questions in your Part 2 template. Support (i.e., cite) your answers by remaining closely connected to the readings and assessment

information according to APA Guidelines (e.g., in-text citations and References).

SMPP Part 2 Questions:
1. How will you demonstrate fit with each of the primary DISC styles (i.e., D-I-S-C)?
Your answer will inform the process of “Becoming the Me I Want to Be” in various relational contexts.
Considerations:
– Remain alert to your relational style challenges (e.g., blindspots: overuse of a strength or an unmanaged shortcoming) as you demonstrate fit with the potential

challenges of each style
– Concise strategy identifies alignment needs and resources with appropriate insight and technique
– Evidence of Hallmark Purpose’s influence with appropriate application of spiritual formation truths, insights, and techniques

TIP: Before responding to question 1, use the following links to increase your ability to respond rather than react to the 4 styles; cite accordingly:
• Be alert to each style’s strengths and blind spots: http://www.squidoo.com/discstrengths
• Communicate and connect effectively with each style:

• Be alert to different styles’ preferences and priorities in the learning process

2. How will you communicate and connect with a predetermined care-seeker from the case study?
Your answer will inform the process of relational alignment in this course’s counseling scenario.
Considerations:
– Identify care-seeker from case study (i.e., Bruce, Josh, Brody, Melissa, or Justin)
– Identify and briefly describe care-seeker’s relational style
– Demonstration of fit should provide evidence of care-seeker’s potential strengths, shortcomings, and interpersonal challenges (i.e., apply Q#1 insights; review Case

Study & Why Don’t We Listen Better?)
3. How will you communicate and connect with your mentor?
Your answer will inform an initial mentorship as well as positively influence future mentor/mentee relationships.
Considerations:
– Mentor assessment information
– Strategy for communicating and connecting with mentor should noticeably evidence DISC and M-BTI relational style alignment
