Personal SWOT Analysis

Self-analysis is consistently needed to grow professionally and personally. As life happens and new experiences occur, a personal analysis can help determine whether a person is meeting their goals or what is needed to meet them. A SWOT analysis is a popular tool that organizations use to assess the individual capabilities of their employees (Madsen, 2016). After taking the DISC Personality Assessment, the Leadership Characteristics and Skills Assessment, and the Creative Ability Scale, I have discovered a clear picture of what things I do well and what things I need to improve on. This brief summary of my strengths and weaknesses was compiled from the results of the latter assessments.

Strengths

My personal analysis reveals that my greatest strengths are centered around objectivity and critical analysis. While I have a creative mind, I am a very intuitive person that likes to appropriately analyze situations before jumping to conclusions. Additionally, I flourish in a calm and peaceful environment and I work to create that space on a personal and professional level. I am also a fair person that thinks in a logical manner in all situations. People around me respect my intuitive and welcoming nature as they can ensure they will receive fair treatment.

Weaknesses

There are several areas where I could benefit from improvements to develop more in my career. To begin, I need to express my personal desires and creative nature more. I tend to fall into the background and quietly make moves rather than creating larger scale improvements. I need to be more vocal in my professional life as others are appreciative of my good ideas when they know about them. It would also be beneficial for me to take more risks and not always take the safe route to reach solutions.
