Paul Kavanagh Result:
INNOVATIVENESS
This scale measures the extent which individuals emphasize originality or
willingness to embrace traditions. It identifies whether an individual thinks creatively
or conventionally and to what degree they are open-minded. It also measures the
individual’s ability to deal with changes in their physical environment and
organizational culture.
Paul has obtained an Above Average score on Innovativeness.
SELF MANAGEMENT
The Self Management scale measures an individual’s goal-directed behaviour. It
identifies how capable a person is at monitoring their own commitments and how
organised and committed they are to attending to their tasks.
Paul has obtained an Above Average score on Self Management.
SOCIAL CONFIDENCE
This scale measures the extent to which individuals are confident in social
situations - whether they are extraverted or introverted. Extraversion can be defined
as the extent to which individuals are outgoing, positive, sociable and active.
Conversely, introverted individuals are likely to be shy or reserved in social
interactions, less pleasure-seeking and less overtly cheerful than their extraverted
counterparts.
Paul has obtained an Above Average score on Social Confidence.
STRESS TOLERANCE
This scale assesses an individual’s level of adjustment versus emotional instability
and is most often associated with their ability to remain calm, self-confident and
composed within a workplace environment, as opposed to anxious, insecure and
somewhat emotional. The ability to manage stressful situations without
experiencing undue anxiety reflects a high level of stress tolerance and thus a high
emotional stability.
Paul has obtained a High score on Stress Tolerance.
TEAM ORIENTATION
This scale measures the degree to which individuals are friendly, cooperative,
accommodating and modest within a team environment. Team Orientation scale
measures the extent to which individuals are altruistic, agreeable and value social
harmony, and this scale identifies the tendency of an individual to foster an
engaging team environment where the opinions, thoughts and ideas of others are
genuinely taken into account and valued as part of the decision making process,
even when these may be in sharp contrast to their own.
Paul has obtained a High score on Team Orientation.
