Personal strengths
Leadership quality- Skills based theory of leadership, it is a leadership theory that
outlines what are the specific quality traits that make up a person a successful leader. What
makes a body perfect in terms of leadership qualities? There lies a million dollar question of
whether leaders are born? Or they are required to pass through a specific set of skills to possess
such leadership qualities (Orphanos et al., 2014). Within every organization nobody is given the
authority to be a leader until and unless a specific set of skills are present therein. I found that I
was able to undertake decisions that resulted in a favourable outcome; it was all a result of my
academic knowledge and practices. One of major criteria within this skills-based theory of
leadership is that a leader is a body that is solely accountable, responsible and answerable for the
actions taken (Gupta et al., 2016). There are various set of kills that lies under the skills-based
theory of leadership; they are such:
 Human skills- focus on peers to peers existing relation and communication.
 Conceptual skills- taking into consideration the entire organization and according to
implementing a plan to undertake strategic steps.
 Technical skills- Achieving goals for the individual’s authorities that serve within the front
line chain of the organization.
Apart from that, there exist human skills such as the ability to reasoning, think and analyse the
situation and based upon the situation undertaking the future steps. I found that these qualities I
have developed had helped me a lot in my carrier and thus was able to identify that I have
developed and possess the potential of the Leadership quality.

Decision making ability- Bayes’s theorem according to which a person has the potential to
predict the future outcome on the basis of the present scenario act. It is like a cause and effect
relationship such that hypothesis can be made whether the occurrence of the event will take place
or not because of one specific event. Using the H and D which denotes the hypothesis and data.
It made me the body to understand the present scenarios cause, such that I was able to critically
analyse the situation and arrive at a proposition that the occurrence of this specific event might
take place (Noe et al., 2017). However, this gave me a better chance to undertake preventive
measures to tackle unwanted situations. This has to lead me to growth at a very fast pace. While
working in office premises or outdoor activities being it in my social life or in personal life
because of the presence of such quality I was able to understand the situation and arrive at a
suitable proposition. However, making use of this quality, I was able to formulate my business
decisions and strategic plans. It was all a part of my academic study and activities too that made
me possess such qualities (Rahim et al., 2017). However, there lies another concept that applies
within this theory is the ability of reasoning and thinking. Being a part of the corporate sector, I
was able to undertake much of the business decisions.

Analysis of my experience
During the college premises, we were given some case-related task by our respected
mentor. Where the entire case was brought, and the area of the problem was well elaborated. The
different roles within the case were entirely divided among the group and role was divided
accordingly. The main motive of our class mentor was to make us understand the critical
situation, evaluate, analyse and understand the scenario. Later, developing own strategies
according to our individual vision to justify each of their statements (Staley et al., 2014). This
gave us an ability to think critically and strategically to beat the alternative role. However, this
brought much of the realisation that there exists a need to think one step ahead in order to
understand and beat the alternative rival. This case study role made me understand the
importance of leadership qualities and decision making ability that stays within very few hands.
Whereas, the most challenging aspect was when the rival body used to make a strategic move
and we would be able to understand the move but could not act smartly as we lack the
knowledge of critical thinking and reasoning. I thought that it is just a case study and each of the
statement related to answer will be obtained within the case study. Later, I understood the
importance of critical thinking and reasoning and the importance of vision (Sebastin et al.,
2014). I sensed that there is an immense need of the leadership qualities such as emotional
intelligence, personality understanding, self-efficacy and locus of control for which I consulted
with my mentor and requested her to take mandatory steps whatever may be suitable according
to her vision in order to inherit this specific quality within me and the other.
However, the mentor asked to get in with the practical life scenario and related each and every
situation that lies in front of us with the management qualities. The mentor suggested that

7CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF PERSONALITY TRAITS
consider every situation and look in the eye of management vision, decision making ability, and
intelligence ability (Han et al., 2014). It is not the help of an individual person that makes this
quality and personality traits available to the required ones. It is an act of practice and vision and
personal effort as well as the potential that makes this specific quality available to the required
body (Lyon et al., 2015).
During the teamwork, I understood that much of the management skills lack within myself and
much of the critical analysis ability fails within me. However, another key quality traits that I
found is that I lacked the presence of confidence within myself. The gap was so huge that my
mentor along with the others present there was able to identify such and bring it in front of me.
During the teamwork, we made use of a number of skills such as analytical thinking power,
critical thinking ability, Decision making ability, the potential to look forward beyond the things
which are addressed as vision (Hartgerink et la., 2014). Moreover, apart from this above
mentioned key qualities I was strongly aware of the importance of teamwork and what benefits
or goods can be achieved by means of such group performance under the supervision of the
senior guide.
Analysis of my graduate employment capabilities
The presence of communication skills and proficiency in carrying out the activity. The
ability to understand the business undertakes and the burden of responsibilities that lies within
the task needed to be carried out — the vision of an individual apart from the management or any
higher executive vision. The level of reasoning and analysis to justify a proposed situation and to
arrive at a conclusion (Bloom et la., 2014). Leadership qualities are required by each body.
Leadership is a quality which does not mean that possession of such qualities will only resemble

8CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF PERSONALITY TRAITS
to make a body leader, but the subordinates and the other employees are also required to be
acquired by such qualities.
Moreover, the corporation seeks for hunger, a hunger that will make an individual to strike or
burst in terms of the performance. The hunger is evaluated taking into consideration the activities
of an individual body. The corporate seeks to find the knowledge, awareness and dedication in
terms of CSR; it is solely the responsibility of each and every individual employee within an
organization (Dhanesh et al., 2014). It is not the act of corporate only to contribute towards the
environment. There is also a need for a positive attitude.
The dynamic qualities that exist within me such as decision making ability and leadership quality
seem to be of requirement criteria of the corporate sector. I understood the strength and weakness
that lies within me. I was aware enough regarding the potential gap that lies within me. I
understood that I am aware of the key skills and gaps that are inherited within me. However, I
decided to make myself more into the leadership qualities in order to arrive at a situation of
efficiency. I was aware that the decision making ability and leadership quality that exists within
me gave me the opportunity to claim that I was handy enough to be a part of the corporate
undertakings. I understood that the capabilities that are required exist within me as my mentor
feedback supported my vision. Moreover, as the day passed by my actions and efforts towards
my day to day activities captured the interest of the neighbours and my friends for the changes
that have taken place within me. I was confident enough that I can bring about the necessary
changes within me (Dolgova et al., 2016).
Because of my skills now that I was able to evaluate every situation, which gave me the potential
to develop more and more as the day passes by. I was able to develop the vision that made e able

to relate to the cause and effect relationship. I was able to relate the cause with the effect.
Moreover, much of my decisions skills has been developed as such that I was able to undertake
business-related decisions which were followed by my juniors too (Karabulut et al., 2016). Now
that I was well aware of the business surrounding and the unwanted circumstances I was able to
prevent the occurrence of unwanted situations because of my supervision ability. Much of the
situation I was able to link that this might be the outcome so better to deal it with another
alternative manner.

My further carer development plan
However, I found that much of the skills I lack within myself and much of improvement
is still required for which I undertook some measures. I consulted with the higher executive level
leader and asked for their feedback. Their feedback would provide me with the way to peep into

the quality gaps. Moreover, I took the help of my friends, colleagues and family member who are
also a part of the corporate sector. Their feedback provides me with the opportunity to peek into
the personality gaps that exist within me and that too gave me the opportunity to work towards
the improvement of it.
Conclusion
Lastly, it is concluded that the two qualities that exist within me is qualitative and has
helped me a lot to carry activities effectively and efficiently. The other personality gaps that I
have found myself is also a matter of gap that is required to be given special focus. However, I
have been successful in finding out the quality gaps that requires attention. The supervision and
guidance of my mentor and other senior executives have given me the chance to work towards
the improvement with the possession of the present managerial qualities. However, my academic
guidance has played a very major role in grooming my inherited qualities. There also exists a
need to make much more changes which is essential for the further development activity. The
burden that stays with the level of responsibility is also an area that required attention.
