In what kinds of situations are you most effective?<\/h2>\n

What factors strengthen\u2014or undermine\u2014your motivation?<\/h3>\n

Whether you\u2019re managing your own performance or someone else, the strategies that help you excel may not help your colleagues or staff.\u00a0 Personality matters.<\/h4>\n

MBTI \u2013 Personality Type<\/h4>\n

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is a common tool for identifying personality type.\u00a0 It will tell you about your personal preferences in thinking, being and acting.\u00a0 However, it doesn\u2019t predict performance (or claim to do so).<\/p>\n

1) An individual doesn\u2019t necessarily fit all of the expected behaviours of a particular type;
\n2) there\u2019s a degree of guesswork and interpretation required to anticipate if you\u2019d be good at something or how to improve if you\u2019re not.<\/p>\n

Motivational Focus \u2013 Predicting Performance<\/h4>\n

Promotion focus and prevention focus are well known among academic psychologists and marketing and management researchers.\u00a0 Managers keen to be more effective in their jobs and to help others reach their full potential may find them useful in predicting performance in a given task, project or area of endeavour.<\/p>\n
