LSS2113 Intercultural studies - 12 Dimensions Critical Reflection

Part 1:

In this reflection I will talk about 5 dimensions Outlook, Expression, Planning, Communication and status, first of all I will describe each dimension and what I think it means.

In Outlook people measure their achievement base on traditions (focusing on past achievements) or invocations (measure success base on plans and ideas).
In Expressions it’s whether people reveal or conceal their expressions and emotions while dealing with other peoples.
In Planning if people set their schedule and plan base on time or people/event.
In Communications if people communicate openly and directly or indirectly through other people.
In Status if people’s status was achieved through hard work and personal success or it was ascribed from their family name or the class that they are part of.

Part2:

2.1

Based on my CMI results, compared to my group, I can make the following analysis of 5 of my dimensions / polarities.

From my CMI report it shows that I have more innovation outlook than tradition which means that I base my success on future potential rather than past experience, and that will help me in my work because I will be always focusing on plans and ideas and not only cling on past achievement. Most of my group are innovation oriented so I will fit right with them because we will be in sync with each other’s, but some still have tradition perspective in dealing with them I have to use there knowledge and learn from the past and take them in confederation while changing to the future.
In Expression I have the tendency to be conceal about expressing my emotions, but some time if I believed that it is necessary to express my feeling in controlled way I will. Most of group are conceal we will fit right with each other, in handling revealing people I will Try to adjust my style to avoid appearing too distant and detached.

In planning I have a tendency of being more Time Oriented, it is important to schedule base on time with keeping in mind that sometimes it is important to put important people first. In my group people are ranging from time to people oriented, and it will be a little challenging to me to deal people oriented planners, so I need to set realistic deadlines in work environment and accept that there will be times people will miss appointments.

In communication I am a Direct Oriented, I will speak my mind directly and intentionally, my group I ranging from direct to almost indirect, in my case Indirect-oriented people might sometimes feel offended by this approach, when dealing with them I have to be more tactful than usual and be mindful of how I say things.

In status I have a tendency towards being Achieve Oriented, I appreciate rewards being attached to project, task and service related achievements, I can appreciate people ascribing positions on the basis of educations, years of service or family-descend in the company but I will not incorporated in my managing style.

2.2

The report said that I was very innovation oriented which I agree with because I think innovation is the future and this is what we use to achieve it.

The report said that I was very conceal and I agree with as I like to say something when it seems right to say so.

The report said that I was very time planner which I agree because I like to play my day base on time not people.

The report said that I was very direct in communication, however how I can be conceal and direct at the same time I think am between the both.

The report said that I was very status achieved which I agree because I like to earn what I get from working and every aspect of life.

Part3:


Yes I this my results will be different because as human beings we develops and gain/ lose some of our quality’s, and I like it to be different as example in my communication I am direct and I like to accommodate both polarities. I think in work or life it is a good thing to in the meddle I mean to have the quality of both polarities so I can deal all kind of people and can handle different kind of situations.
