Change starts with each and every one of us. We truly can be the change that we want to see. On individual level we have to work on our own Emotional intelligence: Self-awareness, Self-regulation, Motivation, Empathy & Social Skills (Goleman, Boyatzis, & McKee, 2015) . On team levels we have to create a positive and supportive learning culture. It isn’t about big things, it’s about the power of small wins (Amabile & Kramer, 2013), unleashing your signature presence (Cramer, Wasiak, Enslow & Foster, 2015) and introducing the power of appreciation and appreciative inquiry (Barrett & Fry, 2008). Don’t look back, but look forward and start connecting with each other look at your qualities and those of others. The godfather of Appreciative Inquiry Prof. Suresh Srivastva called it ‘the life giving forces of an organizations!’.
What is Personality? It is the total impact created by a person on others through 1. Physical Qualities, 2 Mental Qualities, 3 Social Qualities, and Character.
Nobody is born with a perfect personality. But, it can be developed through conscious efforts and regular evaluation.
