My personality characteristics are: progressive 21st century leadership, ability to sense vision in accomplishing goals through transformation and transaction with followers, somewhat intuitive, skilled in collaboration and problem-solving techniques, organized in ways time is on my side, love a mechanistic organizational design, and want the company culture I can grow professionally and career path in Human Resources with (Schermerhorn, 2012, p. W-34, 44, 48, 50, & 52-53). The self-assessment results reflect the profile management foundations (PMF) of an individual who possesses the successful skills to manage and lead others, with the ability to compromise with their workforce as conflicts occur within an organization. On the A Twenty-First Century Manager assessment, my score was 9/10. I think back to all the times that I have stepped up to be a leader from group projects and consulting; I have always known how to be a great leader. Some are born to be a leader. According to Shane Scott, the numerous studies done have shown genes affect a host of leadership dimensions. Some could be the attitude towards leadership, ability to lead a group, and even the willingness to step into that leadership role (Scott, 2010). I have always understood the mechanics of how to be an effective leader; my generation tends to be more open-minded, allowing leaders to utilize their team more than before. I strive to help an organization succeed in their mission and help create an effective team with my leadership of relying on the team to support the goal. I scored 25 in both being a transformational and transactional leader. As a transformational leader, are governed by the vision, goals, and objectives of an organization.
