Some quotes I think convey leadership...
"A leader is a man who makes decisions. Sometimes they turn out right and sometimes they turn out wrong; but either way, he makes them."
Mutual Benefit Life INsurance Co
"All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership."
John Kenneth Galbraith
"A real leader faces the music, even when he doesn't like the tune."

What a trip...
Wow! What a trip...Every time I take a personality test for on of my HTM classes I am always very skeptical because it fathoms me how a series of simple questions spits out an accurate description on my personality, my views and the way I love my life. I took the PRINT assessment and the MBTI a few semesters ago and it taught me so much about who I am and why I do the things that I do. What I liked about the PMAI was, it told me how I am in a more professional setting. I couldn't believe how right my archetypes came out in the end. I only answered 72 questions with agree and disagree answers and it knew exactly who I was. My first instinct after taking one of these tests and looking at the results is over viewing what the other options could have been. So I looked over the other archetypes and they didn't fit me as well as the other ones. This was the same for the other personality tests. It really validates the test when I see what the other results could have been and they don't match my personality. It my next post I will share with you what the results for my PMAI test were. Scary how closely it reflects the person I am at this point in my life.

Hi Sunni! I totally feel the same way about these kinds of tests. Before I take them I never understand how they can know enough about me to give me these kind of results, but I am always surprised at how accurate they are. I think it is interesting to read about different peoples results to see why they are they way that they are, and from what I know about you I agree with the results they came up with. I think you are super funny and nice and I think that is displayed through your results. I can't wait to read more of your blog. See you in class!!!
