Self Management

With specific training in such areas as time management and planning, and with the opportunity to apply these newly developed skills in a job, you could become an even more valuable and valued employee in an organization which requires some flexibility and adaptability to change in its workers. You are responsive to others and will tend to seek guidance from your project leader or manager whenever goals are unclear.

- Example: Your achievement orientation may create a sense of frustration if the goals you set are too hard and a sense of non-achievement if they are too easily achieved so look for reasonable targets and stretch your limits gradually. For example, if you are able to quantify your work, establish numerical targets and gradually increase them.

Many career paths are based on a specific set of skills (such as writing skills) or an extensive base of knowledge (such as engineering) that can be utilized or beneficial in many sectors or career paths. For example, writing skills are a fundamental skill for journalists, novelists, screenplay writers, technical journal writers or for writing training materials. Engineers can be sales managers, project managers, trainers or small business owners. The key is education.
