I am an ENTJ. I find the test was quite accurate. It indicated that an ENTJ would be most successful in careers that require organizational skill and intellectual effort, as well as a challenging and creative work environment (Jung Typology Test, 2020). Even though the list of career choice did not include nursing, I found nurses need to be highly organized and creative in make a challenging day less stressful. Educator is also one of the career choices that was mentioned. I had been teaching nursing students in various capacity for over 15 years. I think it has to do with the Thinking (53%) and Judging (41%). I was honored to find Margaret Thatcher in the same group.
It was also right that I can easily find common ground in problem solving. However, I am not a push over when it comes to issues that I care most and become easily bored with people who are highly emotional and rely on feelings (Jung Typology Test, 2020). By understanding the characteristics of different personalities of the team members, we can find the best method and tone of communication (Baack, 2012). This test (shorter version) can also be used as an ice-breaker activity and educate the team members on the different personality types on the team and how the can best work together.

After taking the Jung Typology Test, I received INFJ as my four letter Myers-Briggs description. INFJ stands for introvert (3%), intuitive (6%), feeling (34%) and judging (9%). INFJ is the rarest personalty type, and is referred to as "The Counselor". "INFJs are creative nurturers with a strong sense of personal integrity and a drive to help others realize their potential" (INFJ in Depth, n.d.) I believe that this personality type accurately describes me. I am definitely nurturing and sympathize well with others. I also strongly prefer organization and well thought out plans rather than doing things on the fly. I think some of the potential strengths involved with INFJ would involve being compassionate, being an insightful thinker, and keeping the peace. I tend to be the peacemaker among my family, friends and in the workplace. Some of the weaknesses involved with INFJ personality type would include being very private and being very sensitive. I can definitely relate to being private and sensitive at times. When I am feeling challenged, I tend to go into defense mode. I have to remind myself that somethings are better left ignored, and no reaction/ response is a response. Overall, I strongly believe that my results were accurate.

According to Kutsch, Ward, Hall, and Algar (2015),
“Many organizations turn to project management offices
(PMOs) in order to increase project efficiency, cut costs, and
3. improve success rates in project delivery” (p. 105). In my
current organization, the IT department has a formalized PMO
and just recently an HR PMO office has just been created. I
have particular interest in the HR PMO, since my current role is
in HR, Talent Management. Although the PMO is very new to
HR, I can already see several benefits. Our department is
constantly launching projects. The PMO will increase the
efficiency and keep the projects on track. Prior to the new HR
PMO, the COE would be responsible for their “day job” and
also the project. This created long timelines, more costs, and
more risks due to the lack of oversight of the project. Now
working with the PMO, the COE and the PM can partner to
ensure the success of the project. I cannot see any disadvantages
to having a PMO at this time.

I believe my workplace has PMO, also known as a project, a
program, or a portfolio management office (Clayton, (2018).
One way to find out is to look at any written terms an
organization may have to reference, and how day to day
practices occur within the organization, as PMO can mean
different things to different organizations (Clayton, (2018). A
couple other ways PMO can differ is by looking at time scales
and how ambitious project managers handle projects. This is a
start to look at program management office, as well as short
term incentives that have a time frame of around 3 months to 2
years (Clayton, (2018). Program management office can be
