8 habits of highly effective people by Stephen R. CoveyHaseebEjaz
Our character is a composite of our habits. Changing habits is hard, but can be done by tremendous commitment.
A (good) habit can be defined as the intersection of knowledge, skill and desire. Change is a cycle of being and seeing (visualization).
Our objective is to move progressively on a maturity continuum from dependence to independence to interdependence. Although independence is the current paradigm of our society, we can accomplish much more by cooperation and specialization. However, we must achieve independence before we can choose interdependence.
Habits 1, 2 and 3 (Be Proactive, Begin with The End in Mind, Put First Things First) deal with self mastery. They are the "private victories" required for character growth. Private victories precede public victories.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are the more personality-oriented "public victories" of Teamwork, Cooperation and Communication.
Habit 7 is the habit of Renewal, creating an upward spiral of growth.
Effectiveness lies in balancing our Production (P) with building Production Capacity (PC).
Organizationally, the PC principle is to always treat your employees as you want them to treat your best customers. We must understand that the best contributions of our employees - their hearts and minds - are as volunteers, because they want to.
This process of growth will be evolutionary, but the net effect will be revolutionary.
141. Assertive Tech and Practice explained by S. Lakshmanan, PsychologistLAKSHMANAN S
Many of us don’t handle interpersonal relationships well, particularly at work. Instead of feeling good about ourselves, our reactions and responses to others often make us feel tongue-tied and inadequate, on the one hand, and angry and critical on the other. Here are some of the ways to deal with everyday situations and come out feeling good.

Larry’s Assesment Steadiness Style.
The Harmonizer (Si)
You are predominantly a Steadiness Style.
We break each main Style down into four Substyles. Yours is the Si, which we like to call The Harmonizer.The Harmonizer is MORE open and LESS indirect than most other Steadiness styles. Below is a snapshot of TheHarmonizer Substyle… as such, it’s a closer look at you!
The primary goal that motivates you is the acceptance and approval you gain from helping others.
You want to be a person who is wanted and needed by others. You remember birthdays and anniversaries, and you sincerely appreciate thoughtfulness from others. As a good listener, you function better as a sounding board for venting frustrations than as a problem solver. Your interest is more in helping others to make do with the current situation than in suggesting change.
YOUR TENDENCIES INCLUDE
· Projecting a warm, caring attitude and preferring the same from others
· Enjoying displays of affection and approval
· Disliking aggression and conflict
· Serving as a sounding board for people
· Being turned off by confusion or complexity
· Overdoing helpfulness, empathy, or sympathy
· Becoming more expressive or emotional under pressure
YOUR GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
With Tasks:
Because you're so people-oriented, your growth opportunities are mostly with tasks. You especially should work to strengthen your problem-solving and decision-making skills. Those skills can help you better deal with complex, unwieldy tasks.
With People:
You're so good at building relationships, there's little room for improvement here. But you should monitor the balance between pleasing yourself and pleasing others. That's because you sometimes spend so much energy with others that you can neglect your own needs.
PERSONAL EMPOWERMENT POINTERS
· Try to be more fast-paced when dealing with the Dominance and Interactive Styles and in situations where there's time pressure or other tension.
· Take training in problem solving and decision-making, or find a mentor or coach who can help you.
· Think about what personally satisfies you, independent of the pleasure you get from helping others. Then try to meet those separate needs as well.

The Go-Getter (Sd)

We break each main Style down into four Substyles. Yours is the Sd, which we like to call The Go-Getter.The Go-Getter is LESS open and LESS indirect than most other Steadiness styles. Below is a snapshot of TheGo-GetterSubstyle… as such, it’s a closer look at you!
The primary goal that motivates you is a desire for a steady flow of more accomplishments.
Despite your somewhat indirect nature, you can be very direct in situations that are task-focused. Your ability to think through a project makes you a good short-term planner; you can identify the roles, resources, and timelines needed to complete a project successfully. Your search for results leads you to be highly self-reliant, ...

PSY615: Week Four Career Counselor-Based Scenario
Career Counseling Assessment
Prepared for John Lee
April 28, 2014
Reason for Referral
John was referred to the Career Counseling Center to assist him with choosing a major area of
study and potential career paths based on his knowledge, skills, abilities, and preferences. John
is a first-year university student currently enrolled in general education courses.
Assessments Used
A career preferences profile will be constructed for John based on his stated interests,
educational background and focus, and abilities. Potential career paths will be recommended
based on the complete profile. The following individual assessments were used in the overall
assessment.
• NEO-R Personality Assessment
• Career Goals Questionnaire
• School and work history
• Interview
Below is the breakdown of aspects of John’s personal style based on the Big Five Assessment
taken as part of the career profile. The select questions indicate his personal style on each of five
global trait dimensions: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and
Neuroticism/Emotional Stability. There is no “right” or “wrong” or “good” or “bad” side to
these dimensions; rather, they help identify John’s stylistic disposition and potential strengths.
Below each global trait is an example of personal style and three related questions with some
examples of traits on each of the poles.
PSY615: Week Four Career Counselor-Based Scenario
Openness
Openness is the level of a person’s receptiveness to novel ideas, change, innovation, and new learning. On the continuum, this can be
seen as preference for change on one end of the spectrum and preference for stability on the other.

and find motivation in novelty, variety, and
possibilities for improvement. New tasks and new
learning are stimulating and attractive to you.
Answer each of the questions listed below
by marking the selection that best describes
your present agreement or disagreement
with each statement.
Preference for Stability
You value familiarity, predictability, and precedent,
and find comfort in stability, routine, and tradition.
New tasks and new learning may be uninteresting or
demanding for you.

How to break down barriers to give more feedback at workQuynh Nguyen

Temple University Keynote: Managing the Tough TalksAmma Marfo
Nobody likes having the difficult conversations. But by paying attention to what makes them so difficult, we can work through these challenges and make these "tough talks" productive.
New professionals come into a new workplace fired up to make an impact and create change, and often struggle when running into institutional roadblocks, traditions, and opposition. Using the story of the orange power cord, paired with the IDEO model for design thinking, this presentation will seek to outline how change can be made without tipping the proverbial sacred cows that appear to be "in their way."
Turning Student Leadership Into EmployabilityAmma Marfo
Session by Marguerite Moore and Ashley Cilenti for Emmanuel College students on how to turn student leadership experiences into work experience on resumes
A Staff of Heroes: Working Well Across TemperamentsAmma Marfo
Utilizing research on temperament, a presentation first used at 2014 Colleges of the Fenway Resident Assistant Training to facilitate discussion about how temperament affects interactions with staff members and residents.
Adapting Assessment Practices for Student LeadersAmma Marfo
A structured conversation conducted with Dr. Adam Peck of Stephen F. Austin University, in conjunction with Student Affairs Assessment Leaders.
For many student affairs professionals, the responsibility of collecting assessment has been an added job for which they fear they may not have sufficient time or energy to devote. Additionally, many don’t feel expert in these methodologies. Many are far more comfortable with their role as educators in helping students develop new competencies and make new discoveries. This webinar discussed some practical approaches to training student leaders to conduct valid programmatic and learning outcomes assessment in ways that benefit both students and the programs they care about most.
Presentation on relational leadership, presented to Union Productions staff, fall 2011; presented about at the 2012 Dalton Institute on College Student Values.
2. Intro Activity: I Represent Conflict
Imagine that I represent conflict. Think about
how you usually react when you experience a
conflict personally or witness a conflict
happening nearby. Then place yourself, in
relation to me, somewhere in the room in a
way that indicates your first response to
conflict or disagreement. Think about your
body position, the direction that you're facing,
and the distance from conflict.
3. Tuckman’s Theory of Group
Development
Five Stages of Group Development
Orientation (forming): members become familiar with
each other and the group; a leader is accepted
Conflict (storming): members start to disagree;
dissatisfaction and tension emerges among members
Structure (norming): cohesiveness and unity begins to
grow; trust and communication improve
Work (performing): high task orientation develops;
goals are worked toward as an emphasis is placed on
performance and production
Dissolution (adjournment): roles are terminated as
tasks are completed
4. Understanding Types: One Way to
Overcome Conflict
One of the best ways to understand a group is
to look at its individual members.
An easy way to determine what “type” of
person you are is through the Myers-Briggs
Type Indicator
5. Benefits of the MBTI to Teams
The MBTI specifically helps team members by:
reducing unproductive work.
identifying areas of strength and possible areas of
weakness for team members.
helping to match specific task assignments with team
members according to their MBTI preferences.
helping to improve communications among team
members.
helping individuals understand how different
perspectives and methods can lead to useful and
effective problem solving.
6. Hello My Name Is:

It is September. You have a group project to work
on that is due in early November, that counts for
40% of your grade. Some people in the group want
to get together as soon as possible to work out a
plan to break up the project, but others think it’s
way to early to worry, saying they do their best
work “under pressure.” You know that the project
is worth a big part of your grade, and want to
make sure that you do well.
If this was your group, which side would you be on?
How do you like to approach group work?
How do you work with other people in a group setting?

you approach those situations to make them
go more smoothly?
