QUESTION 1: What is your MBTI type? What is your Gregorc thinking style?

Do these
seem to accurately capture your personality and thinking style? Please explain.

Effective HR Personnel can have a distinct assessment of their strengths or weaknesses and
administer them efficiently. So, with this Personal Insight Assignment, I can be more conscious
of my internal aspects like traits, emotions, values, and perceptions. Moreover, this s Personal
Insight is also essential to recognize my blind spots which may impede my prospective career
outlook. My major in Human Resources Management in the Business Administration
Department as well as work experience as Grad IT Admin has helped me to complete the s
Personal Insight assignment and assisted me to redesign my job aspects or make career choices.
Moreover, Myers and Briggs test along with Gregorc's thinking style regarding my personality
facilitates me to brainstorm ideas and practices that are required to thrive in a managerial role.
QUESTION 2: What are your strengths and weaknesses?

When learning Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) (Smith, K.) & Gregorc's thinking style,
I came to the realization that I am one of those who make decisions based on feeling (F-58%)
and using imagination, emotional connection (Abstract Random) as I most often consider
people & emotions when arriving at a conclusion and also consider feedback from my peers and
teammates. Likewise, I am also willing to work and think holistically, capable of self-control,
and responsible. But when I am in learning mode, I prefer thinking (T-42%) as I tend to be
consistent, logical, and impersonal so from that perspective, I am an Abstract Sequential who
analyzes the situation and applies logic when weighing a decision so it helps me to see myself as
curious and perseverant [Intuitive (I-49%)]. Likewise, my multi-tasking capability in working
on group projects and my determination, inquisitiveness, & flexibility in the decision-making
process [judgung (J-67%)] for office case analysis projects, helped me to go beyond what’s
required by that existing work so here my preferred style is Concrete Random because of my
risk-taking attitude and divergent thinking style. Furthermore, I believe we are more than just
co-workers, as I give acknowledgment to my coworkers in the office and my teams in classes
who do their job well and I have confidence in my team members to the same degree that I
depend on myself to get projects completed on time so that I can bring harmony in my workplace
and establish a healthy relationship (Abstract Random). Similarly, I lean toward perceiving
(P-33%) as I am more open, flexible, and adaptable so that I can sustain a pleasant atmosphere
in my workplace and my coworkers feel more engaged & valued in their job but my flexibility
and adaptability often lead me to take on a substantial workload than I am capable of. In addition
to this, I am Extraverts (E-74%) or "outward-turning" and tend to be action-oriented, enjoy
more frequent social interaction, and feel energized after spending time with other people,
therefore I reach out to incorporate our new hires in my IT projects as they shadowed me in my
work for a month to get on-the-job training. As my peers experience successful socialization,
they begin to feel comfortable with their job demands, and work relationships (Abstract
Random), so they became more motivated, committed to the organization, and satisfied with
their job. Hence, I tend to be consistent, logical, and impersonal when weighing a decision
through my Thinking (T-42%) style which facilitates me to identify and respond to my OSU IT
team's needs for programmers and formulated the strategy for workforce planning by linking
those to the IT team’s goals.

QUESTION 3: What sort of organization would permit you to really leverage your
strengths and keep you highly engaged in your work?

My self-esteem reflects a motivation for recognition, an increase in responsibility, and credit

for my contribution to my dream career. To appraise my performance, and find the dream job
that I want. By gathering input from a variety of sources, I can develop a much broader and
richer understanding of myself that I can’t acquire from standard performance evaluation
solely. Every so often, I feel job stress when I am facing or experiencing extraordinary
demands, constraints, opportunities, and heavy workload but I am emotionally well-built to
handle stress strongly by way of holding assertive feelings of passion and spirit which helps
me to experience less anxiety in response to those stresses. Consequently, the fusion of my
master’s degree, my work experiences in that administrative job, and the assessment of my
personality tests like (the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator & Gregorc's thinking style) help me to
set my potential career goals which are closely affiliated with my ambition.
As I am driven to accomplish great things, I would like to work for an organization that is
looking for (an exceptional Human Resource Information System Programmer & Business
Analysts) for an internal role in Human Resource Management Association and I believe it
would permit me to really leverage my strengths and keep me highly engaged in my work, in
addition to this, my work will be evaluated based on the quality, reliability, and timeliness of
information systems support for the performance of HR management and operations functions.
Furthermore, I would like to join an elite team that recognizes my commitment and supports
my professional growth; believes in focus + hard work + smarts equal opportunity; that
provides more options to take my career to the next level.

QUESTION 4: Are some of your strengths valuable, rare, and costly to imitate? How can
you organize your work to help capture the value of your key strengths?

Yes, some of my strengths are valuable, rare, and costly to imitate such as:

Inclusivity: When inclusivity is my strength, this means that I am mindful of everyone's unique
backgrounds and experiences. As a skilled HR professional, I think of ways to celebrate
different cultures and ways of my life while also using team-building activities to bring everyone
together. I have successful experience in working with culturally diverse communities and have
demonstrated a commitment and engagement with a diverse community; thus, I get my valuable
inclusivity skill in communicating with a diverse population.

Discretion: This skill requires me to oversee a lot of private information about employees,
making it important that I can keep these things confidential. Whether it be employee concerns
or payroll information, I need to be trustworthy enough to keep this information safe and secure.
So, I have the ability to maintain appropriate levels of confidentiality, a strong work ethic, and
demonstrate a positive approach to serving others.

HRIS Expertise: I am familiar with HRIS software such as ATS (Applicant Tracking System)
and HCM (Human Capital Management), payroll management software that simplifies HR tasks
for me.
Stress management capability: My professions require a ton of diverse responsibilities
including performance reviews, interviews, recruitments, and training. These roles demand
strong stress management and time management skills so I can function smoothly and efficiently
while giving sufficient time to every task. I can say I am detail-oriented and able to multi-task
while maintaining accuracy and timeliness in all areas of HR tasks.

QUESTION 5: Are your strengths specific to one employer or could they apply to several
companies that might employ you?

I consider my proficiency and strengths could applied to several HR companies. so I could

represent them in an interview and on my human resources resume. This can help me frame each
strength in a way that will impress hiring managers.

QUESTION 6: If you were a personal counselor (counseling yourself), should you be

making investments in your human capital in terms of company-specific skills or
market-general skills? What types of improvement/investments should you make in
yourself?

If I am a personal counselor (counseling myself), I should be making investments in my human

capital in terms of market-general skills such as
 ★ Project management skills and project management software in managing projects where
I can assist in the review, testing, and implementation of HR information system
upgrades or patches.

(Learning Management Systems, Applicant Tracking), and want to have strong
knowledge of how relational databases work in Microsoft Team and Salesforce.

principles, methods, and practices.
As well as for company-specific skills, I have to analyze company needs and work with its
Human Resource Management department, vendors, and/or programmers to design system
specifications for that particular organization. So that I can provide support for the organization’s
HR information systems including researching and resolving system problems, performing
scheduled activities; recommending solutions or alternate methods to meet requirements.
Moreover, I need to work closely with that company’s HR team who administer and support all
HR system technologies and enhancements that improve operational efficiency and
effectiveness.
