Personality tests.
I work at a media company as a copywriter and production assistant. In the process for getting this job, I was required to take a personality test, to see if I would fit into the workplace and be able to work as a part of the team. The swot analysis that we were asked to do at the beginning of our group project reminded me of this, and I realised how powerful these sort of exercises are as tools for learning how to best cultivate an effective group dynamic.
I decided to take the myers briggs personality test, and while not wholly accurate, it interestingly, attributed my personality type (ENFP) with many of the same strengths and weaknesses that I said of myself in the swot analysis.
