Similarities...

I wanted to go further about working in groups with people who you are or are not similar to personality (profile) wise. Last week I was in a group with two guys that were completely different then my personality type and It was extremely easy to work with them. Their personalities are more laid back and relaxed while I am high strung and overly organized. When deciding what to do for the task assigned to us it was easy for me to take the lead and discuss roles for completing the assisgnment along with ideas about what we may want to display. If we are always working with the same types of people as ourselves things would honestly never get done...

However, when we learn our personality types and the types of people we are working with on a daily basis it will become easier to communicate and accomplish tasks. Another reason it was nice working with people who have differing personality types was the fact that they had completely different and sometimes better ideas than mine. Individuals look at everyday life differently...therefore when we begin to appreciate that and work with different types of "profiles" we may be able to get more accomplished...

Looking forward I would reall like to take my weaknesses that come along with my personality type and begin to disipline myself to build up my weaknesses into strengths. Along with recognizing co-workers profiles and learning how to work effectively with them.
