Organizational Research and Theory: Personal Assessment
Emotional intelligence embodies the ability to identify, understand, manage, and employ an individual's emotions positively in effective communication, solving conflicts, empathizing with others, and relieving stress (Mischel, 2013). All these components resonate with the thinking influences aimed at establishing real connections with others. I find this concept relevant and critical essential in my INTJ personality. The willingness to invest in a significant amount of time and effort on a relationship resonates to the importance of this trait.

Personality conflicts arise from the lack of understanding of others and rigidity to personal beliefs, views, and opinions. Primarily, defusing such challenges rests on understanding.
Based on personality assessment, I have identified various personality types that cause conflicts within a workplace. Individuals depicting ENTJ traits have a natural tendency of directing others. The executive and 'larger than life' attitude does not go down well with others as they feel threatened or demeaned on a personal capacity. ENTJ characters do not compromise on inefficiency and would like to see things are done in a particular manner. The latter collides with the beliefs and views of others on a consensus and collective engagement type of workplace.

Here, people always attribute causes to actions and happenings, with the belief that everything has an explanation only if we could look deeper enough (Changing Minds, 2011). This theory serves to show how people have very different perspectives to happenings or events in the daily lives, and these varying views can easily stray into power imbalance, prejudice and such like vices ultimately affecting the communication process.
