My survey results have been predictive of my behavior in some areas and have surprised in other areas. I like to work in conjuction of multi-functional teams and to build upon others ideas. So the score and average to above average for relation to environment and interpersonal relationships seem accurate. I have approached new relationships, professional or personal with some basic level of trust and I beleive that has helped me in developing long-term relations.
The orientation for time surprised me with low score on the Present diemsnion. This assessment is consistent with other surveys that show that I am oriented towards long-term planning while not focussing on short term needs.
I would like to site the example of my communication with our factories in Thailand. I have noticed a significant cultural shift between my company's division in US and overseas. On top of that, I have noticed a difference with the organizational culture. Our company's culture is very aggressive and direct and it sometimes gets difficult for Thailand teams to raise concerns in the meetings. Eventually, this has sometimes caused delays in the results. I have tried to overcome these cultural differences by having more 1-1 phone meeting with my counterparts in Thailand.
