I have carried out the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator test. This test was developed to determine which psychological functions are dominant in a person based on how they make decisions and their outlook on life.

The quiz evaluated me as a dominantly observant person. This further confirms the results of the last week’s test, which made showed my capacity for noting behavioral patterns and being an attentive listener. The test also showed me as a strong feeling, emotional person; although, as the Self-Assessment of Leadership Communication test showed, I have sometimes found it hard to express those feelings. I am in equal measure moderately prospective and assertive, and these characteristics are not as defined as the others. Along with my mild tendency for introversion, these character features are what I need to work on to improve my capacity for leadership and communication.

These results point to me having an ISFP Personality, or, as it is also called, “The Adventurer” (ISFP Personality (“The Adventurer”), n.d). This result describes me as an artistic, creative person. According to the test, I am drawn to integrating design and aesthetics into my work and leisure and am inclined to test the limits of what the social conventions allow. I strive to be creative in my beginnings and suffer when society restricts me.

These character types are explorers and inventors by nature, and they enjoy taking existing connections with people and ideas and reinventing them anew. All of this is despite being introverts at heart. However, in the case of “Adventurers” and my case it doesn’t mean locking ourselves away from the world, but rather taking time away from the world to evaluate ourselves and our experiences, and most likely plan how to shake up the world next. Again, further connecting these results with last week’s, ISFPs are often able to deal with rational criticism, but are inclined to take offence at more immature and emotion driven comments. Unfortunately, the ISFP Personality again brings up difficulties with long-term planning, and while the previous test showed that I have already made the effort to improve on this, it is something that I need to keep in mind if I want to become a good leader.

The strengths of “the Adventurer” are their charm and imagination, and the ability to perceive and cater to the emotions of those around them. They are passionate, despite having an inclination for shyness and an artistic curiosity that pushes them to innovate and explore new ideas. And while most of these strengths match my previous results, the weaknesses attributed to the personality type show that I have somewhat improved over the suggested template. While independent, I have learned the value of a hierarchic structure, and can deal both with supervisors and subordinates. I also have curbed my competitiveness to the levels where it is more of an advantage, then a flaw. However, I do need to work on my self-esteem and learn to control my moods, so that the opinions of other people and my mood swings do not harm my creative capacity.

Ultimately, these test results show, that I have a great potential to become an innovative leader. However, to achieve this, I need to become more in control of my emotions. While it is impossible to turn from an introvert into an extrovert, I should be able to improve my communication skills and learn better how to project my innovative ideas for other people around me.
