Pams Organizational Chart Personality Type Assessment Results Custom Keirsey Temperament Report for: Pamela Murk 3. Analyze the results of this assessment as it relates to you. 1and2. Your Keirsey Temperament Sorter Results indicates that your personality type is that of the Guardians (SJ's) are the cornerstone of society, for they are the temperament given to serving and preserving our most important social institutions. Guardians have natural talent in managing goods and services--from supervision to maintenance and supply -- and they use all their skills to keep things running smoothly in their families, communities, schools, churches, hospitals, and businesses. Guardians can have a lot of fun with their friends, but they are quite serious about their duties and responsibilities. Guardians take pride in being dependable and trustworthy; if there's a job to be done, they can be counted on to put their shoulder to the wheel. Guardians also believe in law and order, and sometimes worry that respect for authority, even a fundamental sense of right and wrong, are being lost. Perhaps this is why Guardians honor customs and traditions so strongly -- they are familiar patterns that help bring stability to our modern, fast-paced world. Practical and down-to-earth, Guardians believe in following the rules and cooperating with others. They are not very comfortable winging it or blazing new trails; working steadily within the system is the Guardian way, for in the long run loyalty, discipline, and teamwork gets the job done right. Guardians are meticulous about schedules and have a sharp eye for proper procedures. They are cautious about change, even though they know that change can be healthy for an institution. Better to go slowly, they say, and look before you leap. Guardians make up as much as 40 to 45 percent of the population, and a good thing, because they usually end up doing all the indispensable but thankless jobs everyone else takes for granted. Establishing and following a familiar daily routine is critical to your well-being. In your ideal job, you and your coworkers would all share information so that everyone could remain "on the same page” as projects move forward. Because you genuinely care about the people you work with, your colleagues and your customers appreciate your unassuming kindness. There are four kinds of Guardians: Guardian-Supervisors (ESTJ), Guardian-Inspectors (ISTJ), Guardian-Providers (ESFJ), and Guardian-Protectors (ISFJ). The first step to take is to read your free Keirsey report (this is clickable below). We offer several different reports, and the first one is on us. Let's get started by taking a look at your first report. If you like what you read and want to go deeper on the specific kind of Guardian you are, you can do so by purchasing one of the other reports we offer below. Thank you for taking the Keirsey Temperament Sorter! 3. Personal Leadership Strengths & Opportunities for Development List all of the attributes that are part of your personality type on the left-hand side of a table such as the one shown below, and then list across the top some of the top skills and attributes you should possess as an effective project manager. You will place an "x" in each of the cells that you believe your attribute would contribute to that characteristic or skill. These are your strengths that you would expand upon in a discussion format below the table. Your opportunities for development are the empty cells where you should develop your action plan to develop these areas. An example of a table you might develop is as follows: Vision/ChangeCommunicationDisciplineExecuting Plansystematicxxlogicallyxxthoroughxxxrealistxx Assignment Deliverables Update your Key Assignment document title page with a new date.

Communications Plan In the previous weeks, you selected an organization to develop your Key Assignment around. In week 1, you assessed the organizational structure and took a personality assessment. In week 2, you analyzed your own strengths and weaknesses as an effective project leader and developed an action plan for the weaknesses. In week 3, you performed an impact analysis of implementing your project and developed strategies for involving the stakeholders in its implementation.
