Overall, I believe our personality plays a great role in shaping how we describe
ourselves as leaders as well as how we hope others might describe us. It is difficult
to separate one’s personality from their leadership. I can definitely see how my
personality impacts my decision-making and interactions as a leader. While I tend
to be sweet and understanding as a person and as a leader, I also have a side of me
that gets “fired up” and can be dominating and uncompromising. While I try to
keep that side of me at bay, it does come out every now and again, whether I am
passionately arguing a point on behalf of my organization or if I am upset about
something in my personal life. It is interesting to actually analyze the ways in
which our leadership is impacted by our personalities. While I have always been
aware of the correlation, I have never explicitly examined exactly how it does have
an impact.
