Personal Traits - Assignment 2

Three Measures:
Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
Emotional Quotient (EQ)
Adversity Quotient (AQ)




What is personality Traits?

Let us begin by splitting the two words for us to really understand what was it.
First is Personality. Personality comes from a root word person, that natters about your persona or your being,
being a human. So when we talk about personality it talks about somebody's set of characteristics and quality
of being a person. It’s the totality of somebody's attitudes, interests, behavioral patterns, emotional responses,
social roles, and other individual traits that endure over long periods of time.



Personality, deeply ingrained and relatively enduring patterns of thought, feeling, and behavior. Personality
usually refers to that which is unique about a person, the characteristics that distinguish him or her from other
people. Thought, emotion, and behavior as such do not constitute a personality, which is, rather, the
dispositions that underlie these elements. Personality implies predictability about how a person will act or react
under different circumstances.

Second is Trait. Trait according to Microsoft Encarta 2007, it is the individual characteristic or a characteristic or
quality that distinguishes somebody.
If we now come together the two words, Personality Traits means a person’s set of characteristics. Providentially,
there are three measures that will test our Capacity as a human and will analyze and evaluate our Intelligence,
Emotion and Adversity or difficulties.

Regarding with our assignment that we will have or we should get an individual test with regard to our subject
Technopreneurship, that will test and measure our capability to be an Entrepreneur or to be a business and
woman with the use of technology. We were task to take the three personality traits; Intelligence Quotient (IQ),
Emotional Quotient (EQ), Adversity Quotient (AQ).



Intelligence Quotient (IQ):

Intelligence is the capacity to learn or understand. Although
intelligence is possessed by all people, it varies in amount for
each person, and remains the same throughout life from
approximately 18 years of age.
In psychology, intelligence is defined as the capacity to
acquire knowledge or understanding, and to use it in novel
situations.


What is IQ?

IQ is the abbreviation for intelligence quotient.
Intelligence quotient (IQ) is an age-related measure of
intelligence and is defined as 100 times mental age. The word
‘quotient’ means the result of dividing one quantity by
another, and intelligence can be defined as mental ability and
quickness of mind.

As what i have heard and known, IQ is a test wherein it measure ones knowledge about subject matters.
Actually, as the result of my personal IQ test, it proved me right that i have an average Intelligence Quotient and capacity.
funny, but I am not that knowledgeable or super smart about such subjects like mathematics, science and facts, although
I can say that I am a logical and willing to learn person but I have an average rating in IQ.
By convention, many people use the term IQ to refer to a score on an intelligence test.

So, why is IQ related in business and TECHNOPRENEURSHIP? or is it essential to have a high IQ when it comes in
managing businesses?
My retort is this:
Of course, making or starting up a business needs an imaginative and logical ming to conceive such ideas and planning.
It's the matter or Business, project and process management so having a brilliant mind that is capable and knowledgeable
about things are highly needed. Probably for me, Having a high Intelligence Quotient is the most prior requirement because
through this mind, it could help the business come up with ideas that can help improve the business and can help
acquire techniques that can improve the productivity of the Business.
Of course in managing and planning purposes, a high IQ person must be in because he/she will help correct and
analyze any situations, problems and concerns the company may encounter.
IQ (Intelligence Quota) was believed it was the primary determinant of success



Emotional Quotient (EQ):

This trait measures my Emotional characteristic or proportion. Emotional intelligence is complementary to the
type of intelligence measured by IQ tests.
In this test I was able to have a high score but not perfect; 44 out of 51. Emotional Quotient assessment
determine a person’s characteristic and attitude towards another people or how a person communicate with
his fellowmen regardless with the surroundings or the environment they are in. So, why is emotion, the
heightened feeling is important with regard to business? Well the answer is in the world of a business, it’s not all
about having a great and knowledgeable mind, but the most important is how we interact, communicate or
handle ourselves to others. Because in the field of Business and Entrepreneurship (Technopreneurship), every
business man and woman will be facing and dealing clients and costumers which are also human, logical
individuals. The growth, development and productivity of a company recline with its consumers. Of course a
business is not a business when there is no customer and it is intended to attract their patrons.


In accordance with the results of my EQ (Emotional Quotient) test, I can be a good business woman
someday, hopefully. A good Technopreneur should know about their clients concerns, needs and wants so that
there will be harmony on both sides.


Adversity Quotient:
What is AQ (Adversity Quotient?
AQ®, or Adversity Quotient®, is the science of human resilience. People who successfully apply AQ perform optimally in the face of adversity — the challenges that confront us each day. A high-AQ workforce translates to increased capacity, productivity, and innovation, as well as lower attrition and higher retention.

AQ has helped many companies improve customer service and sales, strengthen morale, develop resilient leaders, create high-performing teams, and hire high-performing people.

AQ is rooted in three sciences: psychoneuroimmunology, neurophysiology, and cognitive psychology. They are its building blocks. Hundreds of research studies lend support to the role AQ plays in determining one’s ability to triumph over obstacles.

AQ is the bedrock of human endeavor. Meaning AQ tests our capability to handle different kinds of situation
that may or can be face or encounter in the flow of the business.
As the result of me Adversity test, I gained a high score..
so it means, I have the prowess by God's grace to influence and affect any situation that may possibly take place
in the water flow in a business.
But in te Reach of the CORE= (Control, Ownership, Reach and Endurance). I was not able to
have a high score maybe because REACH is all about:

Keeping the fallout under control and limiting the reach of adversity is essential for efficient and effective problem solving. Those with higher AQs keep setbacks and challenges in their place, not letting them infest the healthy areas of their work and lives. Those with lower AQs tend to catastrophize, allowing a setback in one area to bleed into other, unrelated areas and become destructive.

It should be use wisely and must be put in order.
All of the three will work in rhythm and in harmony if properly apply and use.
