I was able see qualities and attitudes I see in myself reinforced by participating in the self-assessment surveys and by writing the self-assessment paper. These excercises are also beneficial as I sit here and write this blog, and comment on my three strongest personality traits that have proved to be a positive role in this project.
First, I'm a very outgoing (extraverted) person. I fully express myself in words and dialogue, and I find it easy to connect with others. I feel more productive when others are around me. I'm a very sociable person and feel that has made a positive difference when interacting with my group members. Second, I am an assertive individual, and I see that as a positive trait. I feel it is important to speak my mind and to let my group know my thoughts and ideas. I feel having many different voices and opinions can create a very diverse, and very productive final product.
Lastly, I feel that I'm a very trustworthy person, and I hope my group members know they can depend on me for anything. Even with my crazy work schedule, if I can't make it to a group meeting, I will try to e-mail Rebecca my thoughts and suggestions to start discussion with the other group members, until I can make the meeting in person. My group can trust me in the fact I will do everything I say I will.
These qualities, combined with my group members strong qualities, will be beneficial for this project.

I absolutely agree. I think that our ability to step in and be the 'moderately type-A group' that we are, makes this project a success- even before we reach the finish line.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that you are an extroverted person. Your sense of humor and wit contribute to the positive attitude of the group and keeps everyone on their toes. Because you have the outgoing attitude, and are fearless when it comes to the truth, you are a dependable resource and an asset to the group.
We have been fortunate enough to have a group of people with a LOT of the same character traits, and the results are going to be outstanding.
