Recommended: Communication skills:quizlet

As an ENJF, I naturally gravitate toward leadership roles within both professional and social situations as I have an altruistic personality and I speak with passion. Using my communication skills on an inter-personal level comes naturally and I am completely at ease carrying on a conversation about nearly any topic with another person. I have worked to develop my skills speaking in front of larger groups by using any opportunities that arise to speak in front of others (most frequently at work by presenting the output of various team projects and kaizen events to senior leadership in our organization but also by regularly participating in on-the-spot presentations in our organizations Toastmasters club).

One thing which can be difficult for me as an ENJF is that my interest in the welfare of others can lead me to become too involved in their problems and I am frequently more trusting than other personality types. This overly idealistic, selfless component of my personality can lead me to be caught off guard and spread myself too thin. Additionally, since I am so interested in the welfare of others when I become aware of areas for improvement in them or their performance I can start to believe that I suffer from the same deficiency leading me to try and fix a personality issue which doesn’t exist. …show more content…

    During my Duke of Edinburgh expedition I succeeded in communicating well with people that I did not previously know and was able to motivate others under time pressures to be able to get back to the camp before dark. I am a very hard worker and always like to help others. Although I believe I am very independent, I also flourish when working with a team. During my work experience at Concord Youth Centre I worked well in a team and led a group of youths from the community to prepare and present a presentation about community cohesion. Before the presentation I first had to advise and present my knowledge to the young people. My presentation and public speaking skills, as well as my confidence, has grown and developed during my time at sixth form. I am a very confident speaker as further shown through my participation in a Conference against FGM (Female Genital Mutilation) at which I read and presented a poem. I also love acting because it allows me to express myself and present important messages to lots of people and express my feelings through

    There are a lot of reasons why I chose to pursue pharmacy as my career and they all point to the most important reason: pharmacy is a great fit for my life and is something I have become increasingly passionate about. It started when I was researching careers with my parents and my dad suggested pharmacy and, simply put, it sparked my interest because at the time it was one of the few things I thought I would not hate doing. A healthcare career has always been where I put myself in the future, mainly because most of my family members are in the healthcare field. However, I have never been one that could directly help the wounded or deal with anything gory, but am very intrigued by the growing science of pharmacy. As I continue exploring pharmacy, the more I enjoy learning about it and feel like I could excel in this career.

  • Importance Of Passion For Social Work

    1722 Words  | 4 Pages

    This passion for helping others will prove the driving force towards my success in the University of Denver’s graduate program in Social Work. Through my plethora of volunteer experiences helping at-risk children, I have found that giving my time and assistance to others less fortunate is the most fulfilling way I can spend my time. I believe this passion to help others will keep me motivated in my job and help me persevere during the most difficult times. Because social work comes with a lot of emotional difficulty, my passion for helping families will keep me focused on my final goal of providing assistance despite what difficult obstacles come my way. The trait that will further fuel this passion is my empathy. I am able to identify and understand another person’s emotions and truly feel for them. Therefore, if I see someone that needs help, I do everything in my power to help and do not give up until that person is better off than they were before.

    I usually a very open and understanding person with the ability to trust individuals based on their loyalty and commitment to long-term relationships. This is a really good aspect of my personality, which brings me greater social opportunities and options in the voice of friends and romantic relationships. of course, this part of the sociality of my personality, which can also get me into trouble, at times, with people that I do no want in my life. Some of the bad choices I made in high school involved having too much compassion for person that behaving in a dysfunctional manner. For instance, I would often talk with people had serious issues, drug addictions, being arrested, etc.) because I felt that I could help them resolve these issues. In many cases, these individuals would often ”turn on me” because they had issues with anger, distrust, and resentment towards others. In college, I am learning to retain compassion for those that suffer from dysfunctional lifestyles, but I am also realizing that I do not have to “help them” get out of their current situation. In the future, this will be a good way to prevent troublesome people (that do not want to help themselves) from interfering with my own happiness. I think this will help me become a more discerning person, which will help me make better choices in the future in terms of family, career, and social life. Today, I am learning to modify the “bad behavior” of associating with dysfunctional people that are not willing to help themselves as part of sociality of my personality in college
