BUS 520 Week 3 Assignment 1 – Finding the Leader in You Self-Asses

The Johari Window emphasizes that we may not be aware of everything that there is to know about
ourselves. Others may know things about us that we just cannot see or are unwilling to admit. One way to
improve our personal relationships is to increase what we know about ourselves and what others know
about us. The following two (2) behaviors are key to improving personal and professional relationships:
• Openness to Feedback – we have to recognize that others see things in us that we may not be
aware of and accept information they provide.
• Willingness to Disclose – we have to trust others enough to share personal information with them.
Grasping the realities of organizational behavior begins with an understanding one’s own personality and
behavioral tendencies. Assignment 1 is designed to address issues of personal understanding, planning,
and professional development. By analyzing your own assessment, you will understand how
intuitiveness, culture, diversity, and leadership style influence decision making. Reference the scores of
the assessments that you completed for homework in Week 1 as you complete this assignment.
