Equal or unequal union. Many of us, self-aware people, are able to assess the degree of our activity and manifest it in accordance with our own potential. At the same time, there are many people who are endowed by nature with great vital activity, but do not realize it and do not even know about its existence. Anankast has a powerful force of unjustified resistance to circumstances. Instead of adapting to them, he tries at all costs to keep them unchanged.

This test (the so-called Leary questionnaire) is very popular among professional psychologists because it is easy to administer and informative. Try it for yourself. There are people who are always on the alert - nothing can surprise them, stun them, or baffle them. They are the opposite - people are absent-minded and inattentive, getting lost in the simplest situations. The purpose of this test is to help you understand your inner feelings.

A worthy man must score at least 100 positive and no more than 45 negative points. A questionnaire aimed at self-assessment of observation skills. Are you a reliable person?

It will help you identify people in your environment who are prone to fraud. What is independence?

A rational prude or a violent libertine. Most people spend about 8 hours a day at work and communicate with their colleagues as much as with their families. Therefore, relationships with colleagues are an important element of a person’s life.

In countries that have focused on workaholism research, such as Japan, the United States and Canada, semi-structured interviews are used to identify workaholism. One such interview is the questionnaire proposed by B. Killinger. It has long been noted that men and women are often very different in their behavior. Experiments by psychologists have shown that in the presence of other people these differences are doubly manifest. This is explained by the fact that we are accustomed to playing roles, the roles of men and the roles of women. As Shakespeare used to say, “All the world is a stage, and the people in it are actors.” Do you know your role? Are you vigilant and meticulous or dreamy and distracted?

Is there some tendency towards manipulation or have engrams become familiar to you on the spectrum of emotional expression. Impulsiveness. Emotional excitability. Affectivity. Reproducibility of unreacted experiences. Excessive hyperthymia usually leads to non-critical manifestation of activity. A person pretends more than he knows, knows how and does, he strives to take on everything, criticize and teach everyone, tries to attract attention to himself at any cost. Excessive energy interferes with clear and logical thinking, which is why hyperthymia often gets carried away. Level of unmotivated anxiety. The test is intended for self-testing. Diagnoses the presence or absence of self-destruction syndrome, that is, a tendency to self-destruction, self-aggression, and self-injury. Tendency to low mood. Tendency to frustration.

It is especially important to note that the results of this test are not a definitive “diagnosis”. Maybe you need to change your lifestyle in some way. Sometimes it helps to be a tough leader. Here, however, a sober assessment of the characteristics of your leadership style and your character is necessary. To help you with this self-assessment, American management experts have developed a simple but useful test. It is based on the thesis that every leader has two types of mental resources: D-resources and B-resources. ... The degree of tension in the relationship. Level of respect for your partner's feelings. The ability to give in. The test is intended for self-testing. Do you have a real passion for travel or are you a homebody? The questionnaire is designed to identify a person’s level of anxiety in relation to their own mistakes.

Are you adamant and, excuse me, stubborn? Does the firmness of your convictions go well with the great subtlety and flexibility of your mind? According to Carl Gustav Jung, there are two options to adapt to the world around you. One of them is expansion: constantly communicate, expand contacts, business connections, take everything that life gives. That's what an extrovert is. Introverts, on the contrary, limit their contacts and withdraw into themselves, as if hiding in a shell. Very insecure, self-confident, or overly self-confident? Questions for my husband. Questions for my wife. Are you a good diplomat? Do you conduct the discussion in an authoritarian, domineering and unceremonious manner?

What to do: look for your dream job or can you change something here on the spot? It turns out that if you better understand yourself, your strengths and main irritants, you can “customize” the work environment to suit your productivity style.

Scoring. Write the number of points you received for each question in the appropriate column in the table below. For example, if you answered “Sometimes” to the first question, then enter the number “3” in the first line of the first column. When you have filled in all the lines, calculate the total number of points in each column.

Enter the resulting numbers into the appropriate quadrant of the Productivity Style Circle.

In which quadrant do you have the highest score? So your basic productivity style has been determined. Now you probably want to know how the result obtained relates to your work? Let's look at the characteristics of each of the four productivity styles.

Priority

A priority person is characterized by logical, analytical thinking. In his reasoning, he proceeds from facts, and evaluates them realistically and critically. He prefers to use his time efficiently and effectively, focusing on the most important task that will help bring the project to fruition. A person of this type is usually able to carry out significant amounts of work accurately and accurately and effectively prioritize tasks.

Strengths:

prioritization
ability to think analytically and find logical solutions to problems
determination, consistency and firmness
constancy

Main irritants:

meaningless chatter
inaccuracies or lack of data
inefficient use of time
unclear, ambiguous approaches or instructions
excessive exposure of personal feelings

Communication style. If you listen more carefully to the speech of the priority leaders, you will probably notice certain features in it. Thus, people of this type, wanting to illustrate their point, often refer to facts, actively use technical jargon, abbreviations and special terms, and speak in a tone that expresses confidence in the indisputability of what is being said.

The priority person likes to receive information in a concise form: so that everything is accurate, clear and technically verified. For example, Steve Yankovic, eBay's vice president of innovation and investment, describes his communication preferences: “I need information to come to me constantly, in real time. And it is desirable that people speak briefly. A small screen and an inconvenient keyboard force a person to express his thoughts more clearly. You won't write four paragraphs on your phone. Time is precious."

People of this type usually ask questions that begin with the word “what”: “What does this product or this service give to the consumer?”; “What could prevent him from using the product?”; “What will he get as a result?” The priority requires that only verified facts be presented to him and accepts them without emotion.

Use of space. The environment in the priority's office and his personal workplace, as a rule, look very businesslike. The visitor immediately sees and feels that a professional is working here: clear lines, everything is functional, no unnecessary decorations or works of art. The desk is clean and tidy; everything on it is directly related to work.

Decision making style. Before making a decision, the priority person collects all the facts, analyzes problems and develops theories. People of this type argue rationally and solve problems logically. They very rarely make mistakes when working with numbers, data and statistical reports.

Priority seekers are drawn to tools like the iPad (which they often customize to streamline their workflow as much as possible) and programs like Evernote, Noteshelf, To Do, LogMeIn Ignition (which allow them to connect to a computer and do work remotely), and ScanBizCards (to view business cards on the go). Some of their favorite tools include low-tech inventions such as loose-leaf pads and label-printing machines.

Planner

The planner's thought process is typically organized, consistent, systematic, and detailed. The planner estimates in advance and allocates the time needed to complete tasks and arranges them in a strict sequence. He (or she) will not waste time on unproductive and unimportant tasks. The project plans he develops are concise and at the same time detailed.

Such plans are clearly structured in time. When preparing projects, the planner is usually careful to study and comply with all laws, regulations, rules and regulations, as well as requirements for quality and safety of work. People of this type stick to a detailed list of tasks and often complete work ahead of schedule.

Strengths:

activity, consistency and practicality
ability to identify omissions and flaws in plans and procedures
ability to organize and maintain large amounts of data
talent to draw up detailed plans and algorithms of action

Main irritants:

lack of a clear program, disorganization and jumping from question to question
working at the last minute or with deadlines
lack of results, unfinished work and indecision
unclear instructions, ambiguous expressions, typos and errors

Communication style. The planner's speech model is characterized by precision of expressions and detailed descriptions. These types of people speak in complete sentences or blocks of meaning and often show skepticism or anxiety about quality. They ask specific questions that require equally specific answers.

The planner likes information to be provided to him in a concise form and that it be presented consistently, in detail, step by step, and, of course, delivered on time, in writing, with detailed references and footnotes. They tend to ask questions that begin with the word “how”: “How often do problems like this occur?”; “How exactly do you want to implement this project?” The planner treats information received through feedback channels carefully. He needs clarity and precision.

Use of space. The office environment and the planner's workplace often look traditional. There is no place for unnecessary and impractical items. Both the layout and decoration of the room are very thoughtful. There is order on the table, there is a sense of organization in everything, there is nothing superfluous, there are few personal items. Professional certificates, diplomas, branded printed materials are in a prominent place.

Decision making style. The planner takes a practical approach to decision making. He (or she) easily finds inconsistencies and flaws even in those paragraphs of documents and contracts that are printed in the smallest font. Once a decision has been made, the planner will stand firmly by it, providing stable leadership and voicing plans and ideas in strict sequence. You can safely rely on the planner in everything related to tracking incoming information, maintaining order in financial documents and developing detailed plans and algorithms for completing tasks.

Your favorite productivity tool. Productivity tools of choice for planners include task-listing and project management computer applications such as Tom's Planner and Omnifocus (which allow you to plan and track projects by item, location, person, and date), and organization programs (which allow you to the ability to create interactive agendas and distribute them to iPad users), as well as Ziplist (helps you create personal and family shopping lists, organizing them both by category and by store).

Planners also love low-tech tools such as binders, filing cabinets, organizer trays, pen holders and other office supplies. It is very funny to watch a planner who has the opportunity to wander freely around a large stationery and office equipment store. It's a pleasure to watch him stock up on his favorite toys to increase productivity!

We'll talk about the other two productivity styles next time.
