My Personality Assessment
My Personality Type In this paper, I’m going to correctly identify and describe how my personality type can improve or hamper me as an effective leader in my health care work environment. I am also going to thoroughly explain the four areas of my personality assessment. Delving into my personality type and analyzing it carefully will show me the areas I’m strong and what areas will need improvement.
Personality Type
According to C.G. Jung’s theory and after taking the Jung typology test, my personality type is Extraverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving (ENTP). When taking the personality test, on several answers I could have gone either way. According to the Jung theory, an ENTP is clever. ENTPs can juggle many things at once and be very entertaining …show more content…
If they continue with this overly ambitious attitude they could breakdown. ENTPs can become irritable with inconveniences. ENTPs are also all about improving and changing their surroundings as well and experimenting when necessary (Jung Typology Test, n.d.). I feel this personality test is not a direct reflection of my personality. It clearly points out that I’m extraverted, but the other three areas were so slight they could have gone either way. I feel that I’m one that acclimates well to my surroundings and works well with all personality types. As a leader, and according to the ENTP personality, the things that would make me an effective leader is the ability to problem solve, an ambitious attitude, and the need to improve the things around me. As a nurse leader, those traits can be an asset in working in health care.

Areas that would hamper me as a nurse leader according to the test results would be my need to cut corners and becoming irritable with inconveniences.

We cannot have the mentality “my way or the highway” attitude. Learning to be the best leader by recognizing everyone is different and being positive in your actions is so important.
Conclusion
This paper has explained my personality type according to the Jung typology test. I have described the areas that according to my personality type, can help me as a leader and also hamper me as a leader. I also explored the four areas of my personality assessment. I do feel that I have a clearer understanding of each type of personality explained by Jung’s theory. I do, however, feel that my test in three areas, besides being a clear extravert, could have swayed either way. I was considered an ENTP by a very narrow margin and with that I feel I would have to be aware of the traits sensing, feeling, and
