Engineering Management Introverted and Extroverted

Question: Discuss about the personalities introverted and extroverted? Answer: There are mainly two types of personalities- introverted and extroverted. Jungs theory is influential in the idea of Myers Briggs type of Indicator Instrument (MBTI). This indicator has been used by our organization to identify personalities of the employees. But there are other two models- Belbin team type and Dominant learning style which can also be implemented in this situation. Belbin team model is very effective in utilizing talents of a team and dominant learning style uses three factors- auditory, visual and kinesthetic to understand personality type. However, since our organization adopted MBTI style, we will discuss this model in detail. MBTI has four scales with each scale having two choices. First scale describes weather an employee gets energy from interacting with others or not. Since I always like to talk with different people to get their thoughts on different topics, I would like to consider myself with extraversion. It comes very natural to me to share my thoughts and believes to my superiors and I also like to take their suggestion as well. This keeps me motivated towards my job. Second scale describes how an employee gather information. Sensing type of employees like to gather information by using their five senses where intuition type demonstrates a sixth sense. I would like to consider myself as an intuitive employee. Since, I can perform many tasks at a time. I can be found absent minded in few situations (Muller and Pennington 2014). This scale demonstrates the decision making skills of the employees. As an employee, I always like to take decision in a logical way. According to me, decision is have to be taken based on the situation. Hence this keep me believe that I belong to the thinking category (Brock 2013). This scale describes employees view towards the world. I believe myself in the perceiving categories. Since I think myself flexible enough towards my thoughts and believe. Hence, I believe this assessment is very effective to understand employees personality type. I believe by judging the personalities of the employees organization can able to form a team which will have a mixture of different personality people. This will help a particular group to perform well as a team. Since, a well organized team demands peoples of different personalities, identification of the existing employees personalities is very important. References: Brock, C., 2013.
