Samantha, as I read your answer to the question, I couldn’t help but feel
like I was reading something about myself. I am also both an extrovert and
feeler. I reason that these two characteristics can be both beneficial and
harmful in many ways. Beneficial in the fact that we will not only be able
to approach and interact with others very easily, but others will also feel
as though they can approach us. This will also benefit when interacting
with the community in an open system setting. I’m really glad you brought
up the fact that extroverts would be vulnerable to being less independent
and in return possibly less productive as this is something that I did not
think about. In conjunction to this negative, another thing that you might
want to think about, is that as extroverts we can sometimes come across as
pushy or obnoxious. For this reason, we need to learn how to control
ourselves and be able to tell when enough is enough.

I am also a feeler not by much, but I still lean in that direction. I have
a feeling that I already know how this characteristic will affect me as an
administrator both in a positive and negative manner. Positively because I
care about people, their feelings and trying to do what I believe will make
them happy and possibly encourage them to do better. The negative side of
this personality trait is that we can tend to overlook certain rules and
regulation so somebody’s feelings do not get hurt. In return, this could
cause us issues down the road when another situation surfaces and our
decisions or punishments do not match up. Again, thanks you Samantha for
being open and honest about your strengths and weaknesses.


After completing the personal style inventory, I learned some interesting
facts about myself. I feel that being an extrovert, it would give me some
advantages in becoming an administrator. I feel comfortable interacting
with other and I think it would make more open with stakeholders to hear
their input  and ideas. A weakness that his character trait would make me
vulnerable to would be having less independence or always feeling the need
to have people around me. I don't really feel like I need to have people
around me all the time but I feel like this could be a weakness for me.
During the next two years, I need to work on being more independent and
task-oriented. Another character trait that I learned about myself is that
I am more of feeler than a thinker. I think this is a great personality
trait to have because it means you care about other. But I also think that
this could be a weakness as an administrator. There could be some cases
where you need to stick to the rules and not make exceptions due to
individual cases. Intrinsic motivation is the key to success is my mind. I
like to feel productive and I think this would help me as an administrator.
I will need to realize some people may need to be extrinsic motivators and
i would try to push them to be more motivated by intrinsic reasons. I think
that there are strengths and weakness to all peoples character traits and
we would need to find a balance to  be a productive administrator.
