Podniková kultura ve vybraných podnicích / Company culture in selected businessesHLADÍLKOVÁ, Andrea January 2014 (has links)
The aim of my work was to evaluate company culture in particular companies and suggest any possible changes that would lead to an improvement. The main aim was both the analyses of personal types of particular managers with their perception of company culture and the perception of company culture by ordinary workers of monitored companies. The final evaluation should result in suggestions of changes that would achieve the desired improvement. For the research the questionnaire method was used together with the directed interview method. Always two managers and two workers of the same company attended the interview. The directed interviews were performed with managers. During particular interviews, the managers were asked selected questions with the possibility of adding their own remarks. Questions concerned the managers personally and the company where they work. Further, all managers filled in a questionnaire that measured their perception of company culture. A questionnaire was also given to other employees of the company in addition a directed interview was also performed with them about the company culture. After the evaluation of results, managers were given the opportunity to express their opinion which was also implemented into this research.

THE RELATIONSHIP OF PERSONALITY PREFERENCES AND TYPE TO HEALTH-PROMOTING BEHAVIORS, ALCOHOL USE, AND CIGARETTE SMOKINGMartin, Billy Fredrick 01 January 2011 (has links)
An individual’s personality traits and characteristics have been found to have an important relationship with health behaviors. However, there has been minimal research conducted with personality types. The purpose of the study was to examine the predictive relationship among MBTI® personality preferences and types and both selected health-promoting and selected risk-taking behaviors among residential college students. Furthermore, several potential mediating demographic variables were added to the study to determine their predictive relationship and if they should be entered into a model for the selected health behaviors.
The study used a cross-sectional design with two self-report instruments and demographic questionnaire. The two self-report instruments were the MBTI® and the HPLP II. A systematic random sample was employed to obtain the sample of full-time residential college students. A total of 406 subjects voluntarily completed the instruments. The subjects ranged in age from 18 to 28 with 98.3% reporting traditional college age. Descriptive and inferential statistics with an alpha level of .05 were used for data analysis.
The results revealed that models incorporating MBTI® personality preferences and types had a significant predictive relationship with nutrition, interpersonal relations, spiritual growth, physical activity, aggregate health-promoting lifestyle, alcohol use, binge drinking, and heavy drinking. However, the variance explained by the models for each behavior was consistently low with the one exception of interpersonal relations. Health-responsibility, stress management, and cigarette smoking could not be predicted by models integrating MBTI® personality preferences and types. Nonetheless, specific personality preferences and types did have a significant relationship with health-responsibility, stress management, and cigarette smoking.
In conclusion, MBTI® personality preferences and types provided valuable insight into explaining several of the selected health behaviors. The results revealed personality preferences and type can be useful in health research. Given the popularity of the MBTI®, future research incorporating the MBTI® and various health behaviors may offer valuable information used by health professionals and counselors to modify health behaviors.

Pojetí výuky makroekonomie na vysokých školách s ekonomicky zaměřenými studijními programy / The concept of teaching macroeconomics at higher education institutions with economics-based curriculaMarková, Lucie January 2011 (has links)
The ultimate objective of the present PhD thesis is to propose effective instructional methods to be employed in teaching macroeconomics as an academic subject, their selection being determined by the personality type recognition of the students of economics-based academic programmes. First, a current state of academic education and an increase in the number of university/college students, schools and faculties are analysed. Within the sector of higher education institutions (HEI) providing academic training in economic sciences, the focus is on the rationale of the inclusion of macroeconomics in their syllabi. Having conducted the quantitative research, the MBTI questionnaire being employed to measure personality types, the composition of academic study groups in the chosen economics-based schools was examined from the viewpoint of the given typology. An analysis of currently applied forms and methods of instruction in macroeconomics at the Private University College of Economic Studies (PUCES) is accompanied by the interpretation of their impact on the academic achievements of particular personality types. Based on the research findings, appropriate teaching methods are matched with respective personality types and subsequently with the entire study group comprising different types of personalities. The present dissertation thesis consists of an introduction, seven chapters and a conclusion. The introduction presents the aim of the thesis, an overview of the current state of relevant research on the topic as well as research hypotheses and methodology. Chapter 1 explores the current state of HEI programmes affected by soaring numbers of students, HEIs and their faculties. Chapter 2 focuses on macroeconomics as a scientific discipline and an academic subject incorporated in the syllabuses of the selected HEIs. Chapter 3 concentrates on academic teaching, outlining the philosophies, modes and methods of academic instruction. In chapter 4, personality typologies are exposed, focusing selectively on their development, emphasising those with significant social influence. The MBTI personality typology is given special attention, corresponding basic personality dimensions, dispositions and study successfulness being considered. Chapter 5 describes the results of the research of the student groups' structure according to MBTI typology in five chosen HEIs, summarizing the outcomes from the schools being tested. In chapter 6, macroeconomics examination results achieved by PUCES students are displayed, being related to respective personality categories in compliance with the above typology. In the last chapter, optimal methods and instructional approaches are suggested for teaching particular personality types of students, the heterogeneous composition of the study groups being taken into consideration.

An examination of the use made of the Myers Briggs Type Indicator by Anglican clergy in pastoral workSmith, Roderick Henry 11 1900 (has links)
This dissertation examines the use made of the Myers Briggs Type
Indicator in the pastoral work of Anglican Clergy. The practical
theological focus of the study is reflection on praxis. Various
theories of pastoral work are discussed. The history and
development of the MBTI is given as well as the Jungian background
to it. A qualitative research, grounded theory approach, is
utilised. Interviews of 14 Anglican clergy generate the data for
the research. The research questions are: "Why do Anglican clergy
use the MBTI?"; "How do Anglican clergy use the MBTI?" The research
findings show that Anglican clergy use the MBTI for the purpose of
personal growth, clergy self-care, and understanding relationships.
Anglican clergy attend workshops which encourage the application of
MBTI insights in pastoral work. / Practical Theology / M Th. (Practical theology)

The relationship between the Cognitive Process Profile (CPP) and the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI)Van Heerden, Gillian 30 November 2005 (has links)
Personality, psychological type and cognitive ability are frequently implied to be underlying causes of differences in reasoning processes, decision-making processes and general success in a job. However, there is a trend towards utilising cognitive and personality measures interchangeably in the context of selection and development, particularly as it pertains to selection based on cognitive ability and cognitive style.
The general aim of this research was therefore to investigate the relationship between psychological type, as measured by the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI), and cognitive abilities and styles as measured by the Cognitive Process Profile (CPP).
Cognitive ability is discussed under the cognitive psychology paradigm. A clarification of concepts associated with cognitive psychology is provided, and the CPP model is introduced as an integrative model encompassing aspects of cognitive ability and cognitive style.
Psychological type is discussed under the analytical psychology paradigm, with a focus on personality structure, dynamics and development. This is then integrated into an overview of Jung's theory of personality types and the development of the MBTI.
An empirical investigation, utilising Pairwise comparisons and Chi-square statistics was conducted. The results were then integrated to enable a better understanding of the relationship between cognition and personality. Based on this, it was concluded that there is insufficient evidence to suggest that a relationship exists between cognitive styles (as defined by the CPP) and personality (as defined by the MBTI). There were however, sufficient statistically significant findings to suggest that there is some relationship between cognitive processes / competencies and personality. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)
