PERSONAL ANALYSIS
In relation to all the operations taking place within the boundaries of Woolworths, it is an
organization that has been able to gain one of the most positive reputations so far as a result of
the adequate and reliable operations that it has been able to carry out across large groups of
personalities (Adıgüzel & Tuna, 2018). Moreover, various forms of naturally occurring data have
been able to provide different important information that are associated with this organization
thus providing one of the best opportunities to easily understand some of the things that it has
been able to carry out just to ensure that the needs of all its customers are appropriately
addressed (Ahmad & Ali, 2016). Due to this, various conversations across different individuals
have been able to show the nature of their positive attraction in relation to all the products and
services that are being provided with the entire organization (Ha, Park & Park, 2016). Different
personalities have been able to clearly describe how Woolworth has been a game changer to
them and has gone as far as changing their experiences in this world thus making them to be
updated at all times (Gega & Pulido-Fernández, 2016). On the other hand, the use of emails as a
form of naturally occurring data has enabled the entire organization to be able to attain various
goals that are known o be attached to its visons and objectives (Gascón et al., 2016). This has
therefore ended up creating one of the most adequate reputations so far thus attracting customer’s
attention (Bayarcelik & Findikli, 2016). On the other hand, the use of corporate artefacts has
brought with it one of the best advantages so far since it provides an opportunity to carry out an
analysis regarding some of the issues and events that are related to the corporate and are known
to have taken place in the past thus providing the entire organization with a sense of belonging
(Emir, Saracli, Ramazan & Artuğer, 2016).

An assessment of personal strengths and weakness as viewed by self and other
personalities
As far as my assessment of personal strengths and weakness is concerned, there are
various issues that I have been able to view thus providing me with one of the best conclusions
so far pertaining my personality. It came to my realization that I am totally different from the rest
of the other personalities since we tend to have different perspectives regarding what life entails.
My personal strengths and weakness are totally two different parameters that normally tend to
occur under different circumstances depending on various issues that I am capable of
experiencing in life. On the other hand, other individuals too have been able to develop their own
perceptions regarding my personal strengths and weakness thus making them to view me in a
totally different manner compared to how they view the other personalities. All the strengths
have been able to clearly indicate my personality as far as different positive outcomes are
concerned.
Strengths
Aforementioned, my strengths tend to revolve around various issues depending on what I
am capable of experiencing within my surrounding environment. Normally, I tend to view
patience as one of my major my major strengths that I always tend to have in most of the
operations that I normally carry out. At the same time, various organization leaders have been
able to provide me with quite a number of feedbacks regarding my strengths. Most of them tend
to believe that I am a good communicator who is capable of carrying out one of the most
efficient communication process thus making it much easy to pass a certain information from

one point to the other. Moreover, I am a personality who likes to implement diplomacy in
various situations. Different employees have also been able to clearly state that I am an
enthusiastic kind of person who is capable of fully committing to a certain issue with an intention
of bringing out perfection in it. As far as my progress is concerned regarding my strengths, I
appear to be moving towards the right direction by giving all my strengths the first priority in
each and every action that I tend to carry out.
Weakness
I have been able to highlight various weaknesses about my personalities in relation to
some of the operations that I have been able to carry out under various environmental conditions.
One of my major weakness is that I am a talkative kind of person. Being talkative is my real
weakness. This has made various employees and leaders to develop a perception which has made
them to believe that I don’t have boundaries regarding some of the things that I do in life thus
making them to view my lack of boundaries to be one of my major weakness that is capable of
hindering me from carrying out quite a number of operations within a given work environment.
At the same time, other employees also believe that I am a very rigid kind of personality and
probably this is the main reason as to why I am always not in line with any kind of change
process that is always directed towards my direction. They believe that it is a kind of weakness
that has enabled me to question nearly everything that I am able to come across. Basically, as far
as my strengths are concerned I appear to be progressing positively since I have started to listen
to the perspectives of several other individuals thus providing me with one of the best
opportunities to highlight some of the areas where loopholes are likely to exists thereby coming
up with a wide range of recommendations that are capable of bringing a positive change in my
life thus making me to much focus on my strengths and be able to attain some of the goals that I

have decided to put into perspective. At the same time, I have been able to fit within the
organization that I work for through different ways. The major one is that I have been able to
work hard towards the goals and objectives of the organization.
A critical assessment of how I am placed within the chosen organization
In relation to different things taking place within the organization, I tend to be placed
under various situation that are associated with the development of the entire organization
(Allan, 2016). The organization has decided to take advantage of my strengths thus giving me
the first priority to take part in most communication processes that involves the organization.
The top management team believes that I am the right person who is capable of delivering their
grievances and even communicating adequately with a wide range of their customers who tend to
have different characteristics in relation to various types of products and services that are
provided to them. At the same time, the leaders within the organization also believe that I am the
right personality who has the right skills of solving various situations involving diplomacy. As a
result of this, they have been able to place me right at the center of various issues that are being
encountered by employees. I have been much concerned with addressing development aspects.
As a result of this placement within the chosen organization, I have been able to gain a positive
reputation across different individuals. This has been mainly due to the good work that I have
been doing according to the required rules and regulations that are fully attached to the whole
organization both at its internal and external levels. Moreover, I have also been focused in terms
of making different follow-ups pertaining various situations, whenever there is a change that has
been made within the organization, I always try my best to make a follow up right after the
implementation thus giving me an opportunity to carry out an assessment of how the entire
change is working together with whether it was capable of delivering all the intended outcomes.

At the same time, I have been able to play an essential role in eradicating different forms of
barriers that are likely to hinder the organization from performing. This is done by carrying out a
reasonable awareness program that is simple and understandable.
Self-improvement that is attached to continuous improvement
There is the need to carry out some forms of self-improvement techniques in order to
ensure that continuous improvement is well maintained in various conditions of operations
(Delelis, 2016). There are various ways that can therefore be implemented thus taking my self-
improvement to greater heights for the benefit of my personality together with that of the entire
organization. There is the need to appropriately identify various objectives as one of the major
strategies that is geared towards self-improvement. This expands the thinking capability thus
providing an adequate opportunity to think about what is required within a particular time (Bedi,
2016). At the same time, there is the need to establish a self-purpose thereby making it much
easier to carry out an identification of the purpose behind the goal that should be attained. This
will further lead to self-improvement since there will be the need to fulfil the goal (Commey,
Sarkodie & Frimpong, 2016). In order to ensure that self-improvement for a continuous
improvement is well implemented, there is the need to come up with some of the most important
ethical considerations since they are among the major parameters that have got the potential of
providing an appropriate guidance regarding a particular path that should always be chosen thus
leading to the emergence of different conditions that are always attached to self-improvement
(Altin, Kizildag & Ozdemir, 2016). Apparently, self-improvement for a continuous improvement
appears to be a two-way traffic and can only be done when two or more parties have agreed to
walk together towards one specific direction in order to acquire certain objectives (Ishida,
Slevitch & Siamionava, 2016). Due to this, the management team must be ready to listen to and

understand the employees of their respective organizations in order to ensure a positive outcome
of self-improvement for a continuous improvement within their boundaries. It is an issue that
should not be handled with assumptions since by doing so, it is likely to lead towards the
emergence of unwanted results among various personalities and organizations. At the same time,
self-improvement for self-continuous improvement is always an essential pillar and due to this, it
has one of the most critical roles in contributing towards the development of the organization
where it is attached.
In conclusion, there should be the creation of awareness across different groups regarding
how best self-improvement for continuous improvement can always be implemented to ensure
that appropriate outcome is attain. Moreover, different leaders should also take part in addressing
this issue through the implementation of different types of leadership and management
techniques that are capable of providing guidance towards the required direction (Aissa &
Goaied, 2016). Self-improvement clearly shows various conditions of scaling up to greater
heights as a result of various factors and due to this, it is capable of creating one of the strongest
reputation ever in relation to some of the activities that it is capable of doing (Hussain, Konar &
Ali, 2016). For an individual to develop self-improvement, there is the need to understand some
of the relevant goals and objectives that need to be obtained thus trying as much as possible to
work hard towards that specific direction in order to improve a self-condition (Hung & Lu,
2016). I have been able to encounter this condition several times as a result of various motivating
factors that I have been able to encounter.
