and identify your personality type. Explain how your personality type may influence the way
you manage your time
Under the DISC model of personality traits there are four kinds of personalities included
which are like Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Conscientiousness. From these all my
personality type relies under the Influence because I have the behaviour of enthusiasm up to the

higher extent along with the optimistic nature. Moreover, those things which I not like and not
supportive for me then I ignore to them rather than working upon it.
Influence kind of personality trait impacts on my work and time management skills up to
the better level. According to this particular trait my behaviour is of the enthusiasm and
optimistic type. Further, when I dislike the tasks and things then ignore them which lead to
reduce time consuming. If I take the task forcefully which is not liked by me then I will spend
time to make interest and understand it. Hence, it will be highly time consuming and impact on
the managed work time negatively.
