This writing assignment is a research paper and self-assessment. You may use Chapter 2 of the textbook as an additional resource.
A necessary ingredient for career success is self-awareness and understanding. Each of us has strengths and development areas both in skills and in behaviour. In this assignment you will conduct academic research to develop insights on how personality, behaviour and career success are connected. You will then reflect on your personality type to identify and analyze the characteristics that will help you succeed according to your research, as well as the characteristics that may hold you back. For this assignment you will:
1. Review the results from your Big-Five and Myers-Briggs personality tests as well as any relevant Self-Assessment in Connect.
2. Read the article: “Could Your Personality Derail Your Career?”, Chamorro-Premuzic, Tomas. Harvard Business Review, September-October 2017. Identify and analyze your ‘dark side personality traits’. (Article will be posted on Blackboard).
3. Conduct further academic research (library, internet) to deepen your understanding about the role of personality in the workplace and/or the personality traits that are associated with professional success. Establish connections with course content.
4. Solicit (truthful!) input from friends & family on their perceptions of your personality. Analyze the similarities and differences between your perceptions and those you have interviewed.
5. Develop a clear thesis / argument for your report about the path that you are on after considering your research and reflecting on your own personality.
Your writing assessment will be a formal academic report, using professional language, correct sentence and paragraph structure. It will also incorporate research from at least 2 scholarly articles that have been cited in your paper at least twice. You may write in the first person (e.g. “I”).
You are advised to use the following format:
A. Introduction. Provide background and context for this topic (be brief), clearly state the key, specific idea of this paper (think of this as your thesis statement) and a very brief summary of the arguments that support your idea.
B. Analysis. Include the following:
 analysis of your results from Myers-Briggs and Big-Five personality tests
 analysis of your ‘dark side’ personality traits
 feedback from friends, family, past employers about your strengths, weaknesses, or overall personality; reconcile similarities and differences
 analysis of the interrelationship between your self-analysis and the academic research on workplace/career success
C. Conclusion and Implications. Summary comments that restate your thesis. Provide the ‘so what?’ of all your work – explanation of how this information might impact you going forward (career selection, personal development goals, etc.). Any next steps? Provide some specifics.
The length of the paper should be approximately 1300 to 1500 words (main body of the paper, not including titles, citations, etc.). A penalty of 10% for every 100 words over or under will apply to any reports submitted outside of this word range.
Your report will be mainly evaluated based on your critical and original thought (not quoting theory extensively, for example), your writing organization & style and your level of research (see attached rubric).
You must use proper APA citations to reference your work. The sources you use must be cited and used throughout your submission, including in-text. See ‘Research and Cite Resources’ page in Blackboard for APA guidelines and tip sheet.
You will submit your paper on Blackboard in the drop box provided. See the ASSIGNMENTS page. Due date is Sunday, June 21 at 11:55pm.
Penalty for late submissions is 10% per day (24 hrs) submitted late. The first 10% applies at 11:56pm on June 21, next 10% 24 hours later, etc.
Writing Assignment Outline (3%)
The outline should be maximum 1 page in length (single spaced, 11-12pt font, no handwriting) and it should state your main idea (preliminary thesis statement), the references that you will use and a summary of what each reference will be used for. Also include any other relevant thoughts or ideas for the direction of your final paper. I will hand this back with any notes of guidance before your final paper is due.
Submit the outline on Blackboard in the drop box provided. Due date is Sunday, June 7 at 11:55pm. Late submissions will not be accepted and will receive a grade of 0.
