Question

Explain how personality traits might help a project manager to design a team structure. Why, for example, might it be challenging to manage a team with too many “DRIVER” personalities in the team? Or, too many “ANALYTICAL” personalities? How would you go about training a team to understand personality traits and to use them to improve their team working capabilities?

can I have the reference for this?

Answer 1

to solve this, you need to assume a team, hypothetically your group in the school/college. Now there are traits which can be assigned to individuals based on the personality theory that you need to judge them on.

When in a team you need a balance of personalities and this will require you too analyze which members have which personality and the kind of tasks which is done by your team, You can consider that you are a principle in a community school and you lead a group of teachers. Now to make this school work and stand the best, you first analyze the work that needs to be done in the school and then the personality traits of the teachers. You need some one who is highly driven so that you can use the for spearing the projects, someone who is critical who will question the moves you make which will act as a counter.
