Values are viewed as objects or ideals important to an individual, called personal, or group of individuals, culture, or family. A personal value thus refers to an individual’s belief...

...development for the purposes of this report can be defined as an attempt to help the individual analyse their abilities and interests to guide their placement, progression, and development through various assessment activities (Gunnigle & Flood, 1990, p. 172). Literature suggests that the effectiveness of several management and professional development activities can be enhanced by paying attention to managerial self-awareness and variables related to self-awareness like self-efficacy (McCarthy & Garavan, 1999). Admundson (1995), argues that the two key variables that moderate career decisions are the individual’s self-awareness and self-efficacy which are essential because high levels of self-awareness and self-efficacy enables the individual to exert more control over long term effects and are in a better posistion to respond proactively to situations. Therefore, analysing managerial and professional development in regard to self-awareness creates a positive effect to both personal and professional enhancements. This report posits the importance of managerial self-awareness to the effectiveness of personal and professional development. It aims to develop understanding of self awareness for career development gauged from feedback tools, specifically the Personal Assessment of Management Skills (PAMS) instrument. To identify strengths and skill areas for development and to identify long term career goals. Firstly, the report reviews the PAMS instrument against popular feedback...

...I did have a hard time finding strengths. I think I also did a good job finding local resources for Precious’ treatment. I spent a lot of time doing this and I think that it will help me as a social worker in the future if I reside in Denver. I had a really hard time with this project, I was self conscious about my assessment and in interventions and theories. I re-read through the readings but had a really hard time relating what I read to fit with what I was seeing in Precious. I think that in general it is hard for me to do a project or do an assessment of anything without the knowledge of doing one before, and having information that is s subjective. I realize that this is excellent practice for being a social worker because no one is going to spell out the answers for you. This project made me doubt by ability and knowledge of social work, even though I have never worked in a clinical setting. In all the settings that I have experience working in, I only report facts and quantitative data, so it was a real challenge providing qualitative and quantitative...

...Finding the Leader in You: Self-Assessment Organizational Behavior BUS 520 Dr. Ras Tsidi Acolatse July 23, 2013 Finding the Leader in You: Self-Assessment An accurate profile of my personality characteristics would read: progressive 21st Century leader, able to achieve positive results through transformational and transactional leadership (Schermerhorn, Osborn, Uhl-Bien, & Hunt, 2012, p. 310), proven intuitive skills, keen sense of achieving results through compromising and excellent problem-solving techniques; achieved success in organizations developed through organic or mechanistic design. The results of my self-assessment portfolio reflect profile management foundations (PMF) of an individual with the necessary traits to manage and lead others in fluid, fast pace, and sometimes, volatile organizations. My “A Twenty-First Century Manager” score of 9/10 is the culmination, results of over 40 years in the workforce. Every job and professional experience has built upon the other in providing me the traits of being an effective leader in the 21st Century and beyond. I have gained and maintained the requisite skills to be an effective manager, and I possess the necessary traits for achieving mission success in organizations with varied and diverse missions, whether it is a Government agency/entity, or a private organization.

...how to deal with subordinates can grow and to have a better relationship with the employees. Knowing their own personality can help the person to have a personal understanding of issues, planning, and definitely professional development. A leader has to know how to analyze and understand his or her own leadership style to be able to deal with diversity and how to influence decision making. In this paper I am going to analyze and talk about my leadership style. My personality characteristics I was required to take a Self-Assessment test which is attached to this paper as appendix 1. The test shows that my personality is focused on a future leader but I still have to improve a lot of areas if I want to one day become a leader/manager. My skills and foundation are strong but I need to work on my self-confidence and learn how to schedule my day, from beginning to end, making better use of my time. I have a good balance between the “Transformational” and “Transactional” leader which is good because a good leader should have a good balance between both. Since my self-confidence is not very high, I am uncertain of my intuitive ability, usually I second guess myself and even though I know I am right I am not totally confident on my answer. This is a skill that I need to improve and I need to further develop. Self-Assessment Review and Analyze Overall my scores were high but not high enough to show that I am prepared to be a leader. I plan on becoming a manager and knowing my...
