Managing Conflict in Workplace
LSI or Life Style Inventory is an interpretation of your individual personality of oneself specifically for the purpose of management and organizational purposes. It’s used as a mechanism of improving your personality from as previously stated, you’re organizational and management strand point. If used correctly, when receiving the result of your LSI survey this should allow the individual to acknowledge their behavior styles and reinforce their thinking on the type of behavior that they may have not been aware of. This way they are able t use these skills, improve n them where need be and better their potential of inquiring a better style or improvement of a previous one and being able to use it effectively. As I look at the results of my LSI survey I can somewhat agree and disagree with the results. Before I actually go into all of the results, I would like to explain what each other the results mean. There are three separate categories on which the LSI is based off of. The constructive styles (11, 12, 1, and 2 o'clock positions) reflect self-enhancing thinking and behavior that contribute to one's level of satisfaction, ability to develop healthy relationships and work effectively with people, and proficiency at accomplishing tasks. The passive/defensive styles (3, 4, 5, and 6 o'clock positions) represent self-protecting thinking and behavior that promote the fulfillment of security needs through interaction with people. The aggressive/defensive styles (7, 8, 9, and 10 o'clock positions) describe self-promoting thinking and behavior used to maintain status/position and fulfill security needs through task-related activities.
