                         Personality test 

 

    The personality I was given by the 16 personalities assessment was an assertive commander. In the findings of my research an assertive commander is one who is quick-witted , a strategic leader who is conclusively in planning visions and does not wait to act upon their plan. After taking the assessment, I took time upon myself to look up terms and definitions of the given key words of an assertive commander. Words like determined ,sharp minded, confident, ruthless, and decisive would be used to describe someone with the personality of an assertive commander. I do agree with the results from the assessment. 

     The assigned strengths of the personality type – assertive commander are efficient, tactical planners, & quick  witted . I do see these traits play out in my personal/work life . In regards to being efficient, within the domain of this personality an individual would prefer to sway  on the side of efficiency as they perceive inefficiency to be extremely unsuitable. This could possibly be a challenge in the work field because in some situations if I am too efficient it might lead others colleagues to be unprepared or incapable when in reality I may have just over planned. In my opinion, the trait of being a tactical planner is the most very crucial characteristic by far . Commanders are able to create plans and navigate through the necessary steps that complete the entire project . Needless to say,  this can be a challenge in my personal life and work life because not everyone has the same perception on how they believe things should be developed. Everyone is different and every angle of observation will never be the same . The notion of being considered to be quick witted is a vital role in how assertive commanders are perceived by their subordinates. Often than not , commanders are expected to know the jurisdictions surrounding their organization and must be educated enough to be able to consistently dissect what the steps that the objective has laid out . This can be a challenge because by the standard of what being strong willed is ; expectations can be set really high. 

    Evidently, I do agree with the notion that personality tests can be accurate in determining whether a candidate is right for a specific role . I say this because the assessment would allow HR departments to “get a feel” of who the interviewee is beforehand. This way, the company can initially decide whether or not to process with the necessary steps of hiring the candidate .

 

Unit 4 linked in

My biggest take away from the live session was that,  ” Linked In” can be a very crucial tool for leverage in regards to starting up my professional career. A good profile could be a possible factor in what helps me get a job.  After reviewing the zoom meeting I realized how important it is to have a acceptable linked in profile .

Equal Rights Assignment

 

The film On The Basis of Sex is an American biographical legal drama film made in 2018. The film was based on the life events of the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Throughout the film, Ginsberg disregarded the notion that women were to stay at home, and either take care of children and work around the house. Ruth Ginsberg was resilient in her approach  to overturn the acceptance of gender discrimination .The movie displays Ruth Ginsburg’s determination in regards to her opposition against gender discrimination and the battles she fights in a heavy populated male domain.

        Ruth challenged the acceptance of discrimination by succeeding in her career, which was dominated by men. Despite being overlooked by established law firms and her college colleagues , she continued fighting to make sure her voice wasn’t ignored. Ginsberg’s ultimate goal was to eliminate legal discrimination of sex. In 1970  Ruth took up the case-  Moritz V Commissioner. Mr. Moritz , was rejected from  having a tax deduction for nursing his mother. Ginsberg  fought the case to prove that this was discrimination of sex because women were only sought to be looked upon as caregivers . Evidently, her willpower and demeanor are the factors that later led to the repeal of unfair gender discrimination laws . 

       Ruth Ginsberg’s efforts paved the way for equality and justice in the United States. Companies, organizations, educational institutions and workplaces are required to have policies that promote equal rights. For example, before getting hired at any of the jobs I worked at companies would introduce their policies during the hiring process in order to prevent any violation of protocol set. The protocols will be established on the basis of legislations  such as the Equal Pay Act of 1963Civil Right Act of 1964 , Age Discrimination Act of 1967, and many more legislation that promote equal treatment. To an extent , companies can hold annual meetings to make sure the standard of equal rights is upheld .That is something that my occupation does to assure that the low count  violations of company protocols. Every year we report to HR and go watch numerous videos that display what is not allowed in the workplace. We would also go over any new polices added under the company’s jurisdiction.

    In today’s world , there has been alot of ground gained in the approach to abolish discrimination. Organizations are still creating more rules that encourage equal rights so that employees can feel safe in the workplace. However, Ginsberg constructed a pathway where regardless of gender , equal leverage should be sustained.
