On the same note, if my workplace involves physical labor, I won't quite be able to cope as well as some others. I would rather sit down with some coworkers and work out what needs to be done than run around and figure it out as I go along.

Theses assessments of my personal strengths and weaknesses beggars the question: How can I use this test to make me a better manager? The answer is obvious, work on my weaknesses. As a manager I will have to understand and work well with my coworkers, and in that department I am certainly competent. However in order to be a completely competent manager I'll have to learn to be physical, and more able to visualize plans and ideas.

It has taught me that I still have things to learn, and that I have the ability to overcome problems as I am beset with them. I have learned that I am good at listening to people, and that I know how to work with people.

One has to wonder though, if the discrepancies between my self-image and the test results are the result of a flawed self-image or flaws in the test itself. In any regards the self-improvement that will come from this test makes up for any flaws, real….....
