What do think the most important quality for success is? Why?Does this apply to personal success also? Why / Why not?

Personality, Teamwork, Leadership

According to Forbes magazine, the top trait 88% of employers are looking for is “cultural fit.” This includes:• Professionalism (86%)• High Energy / Enthusiasm (78%)• Confidence (61%)

PersonalityEssential Qualities For Success In Any Field• Traits– Self-motivated– Independent, Life-long learner – Creative minds with strong technical interests

• Personality– Enthusiastic– Ethical (having morals)– Goal oriented– Persistent– Self-aware (knowing your strengths and weaknesses)– Self-confident (believing in yourself) – Self-disciplined

Teamwork• Performing as a team member means:

– Share the responsibility of a task – Respecting the opinions of others – Doing your share of the work.

• The most important factor in teamwork is having a foundation.– Everyone needs to know what is expected of them. – Team members strengths, not weaknesses should be focused on

when deciding and executing responsibilities.– Speak up about problems! Being silent does not work in the

workplace. The major reason teams fail is because team members socialize rather than work leaving those focused on completing the task picking up the slack and covering for the others.

Leadership

• Leadership– Effective leaders have direction. They are focused on their

job and are not easily distracted. – They help inspire and motive others by valuing the

importance of what others are doing. – Leaders are good communicators and take positive interests

in others. – Successful leaders are solution-driven, meaning they see the

problem and with the help of others, work toward a solution.

• Give an example of when you have used leadership qualities.

Relevance

• So why do you need to know about personality traits, teamwork definitions and leadership qualities?

• You will be asked to use each of these in whatever career you pursue.

• You will also be asked to exhibit these in Multimedia / TV, Film and Digital Media (job training courses).
