This project is basically for knowing more of myself. The purpose of undertaking this project in the course of Leadership in an Organization is to understand my personality type as per Myer Briggs test indicator, which will in a way help me to become a better leader in future.

Learning to delegate – I can say from my past experience that this is what I strongly needed. I always believed in myself and less to rely on people and delegate responsibilities to them.
