Lsi – Gm591 Leadership and Organization Behavior

LSI GM591 Leadership and Organization Behavior September 9, 2011 According to my LSI, my Primary individualised mentation style is turning away at 80% and my back-up personal thinking style is affiliative at 75%. I agree with my primary personal thinking style, stave offance and my back-up personal thinking style, affiliative. With the avoidance style, I stomach live life more positively and I can confront the pot that cause my distress. With the affiliative style, I can acquire stronger interpersonal skills that will help form healthy relationships. Some of the statements round avoidance are true about me, while others arent.Example of true statements are having few strong interests, having obstacle making decisions, uncomfort equal discussing feelings and self-doubting and self-blaming. Some of the false statements are escapeing initiative, having difficulty establishing relationships, preoccupied with my own concerns, deep experienced aboutthing traumatic and feeling o verwhelmed by circumstances. If you tally the true and false statements up, then you would see that I find more false statements than true ones, which tells me that I am less avoidance-oriented now.However, if you look at the interpretation of avoidance, as avoiding situations that may cause distress, then I would be a more avoidance-oriented person. When I ticktack upset with a friend or family member, then I tend to shut down entirely and avoid them for a few days till I am able to discuss what is victimize with me. I also agree with the affiliative style universe my back-up personal thinking style because I wear offt have a hard time meeting people, I dont lack effectiveness at work, I dont avoid group activities, I am able to relax around people and I dont feel unimportant or disliked.I might feel lonely sometimes, but everyone does at one point or another. beingness in the affiliative style benefits me with being liked and feeling a sense of belonging. I would identify achievement as limiting personal thinking style because it was my lowest scoring percentile at 21%. Being achievement-oriented involves recognizing where your efforts make a difference, deciding on a desired outcome, and setting specific goals to help you extend to it. I would say that my achievement style is lowered because I feel like my efforts makes little differences, I ont set goals, and I lack interest. However, I dont lack initiative at work, I take responsibility for my actions and I dont blame other people for my problems. In school I dont do homework to achieve or excel, I ripe do it to get it done and hopefully pass. My dependent, approval, and conventional personal thinking styles all being at 69% percentile could be preventing me from being an achiever. For me to become more achievement-oriented I need to pull up stakes pleasing myself and stop focusing on what I think I should be doing and instead do what is important to me.I am not a draw offr yet, but I am move that degree and field now. After reviewing my LSI and learning what it all means, I am going to have a hard time achieving a manager type persona. I think that a manager inescapably to be encouraging and have a high percentile in the humanistic-encouraging style and mine is only(prenominal) at 25%. I am not uncomfortable with interacting with others, nor do I lack culture relationships, nor do I have a problem working in groups. However, I do have a difficult time communicating in terms of speaking in public and grievous people what do to or how to do something.Improving my humanistic-encouraging style will improve my ability to lead, manage and teach. Looking back now, its weird to see some connections with my growing up strategies with certain personal thinking styles. I remember my mom never making me do any homework or bribing me with rewards if I got all As or anything like that, so I have a feeling that had an affect on wherefore I dont feel a better-looking need to be more achievement-oriented. When my mom got upset with my brother, and me she would just run to her room and I guess, avoid us. So, now when I am upset with a friend, I run away and let it just pass by.My mom was always encouraging me to do things and always said that I can do whatever I put my mind to, so I dont know why my encouraging style is in the lower percentile. I have learned a lot about myself while taking and reviewing my LSI results. This exercise made me aware of knew things about myself, while letting me admit to myself some other things. For example, I had a feeling I had avoidance problems, but taking this survey and it finding out that information made me think that it is actually real and hurting me more than I thought. I would love to improve my avoidance personal thinking style.
