To prepare for this Application Assignment, consider the following:

What are your core values? You may wish to review the Work Values Cards document provided in Week 2 as you evaluate this.
What motivates you, both professionally and personally? Think of three or four instances in which you have experienced varying degrees of motivation and reflect on these instances in light of the motivation theories presented in the Week 5 Learning Resources.
What are your strengths and areas for development with regard to the five categories of emotional intelligence (self-awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, social awareness, and social skills)? If possible, ask for honest feedback from at least three colleagues or others with whom you interact to help you gauge this.
What insights did you gain about yourself from the DiSC 2.0 self-assessment that you completed in Week 4? Review your self-assessment report with this week’s content in mind. What ideas does the report give you about how you perceive or prefer to interact with others? How do you think your DiSC category might be received by others?
