An efficient staff understands the goal and objectives of the group and is prepared to go the extra mile for the attainment of the set goals. Understanding the personality types help in a great deal in identifying suitable staffs for specific jobs.

This perspective on personality types recognizes that each individual is unique but suggests that there are some broad psychological preferences that may help explain typical patterns of behavior.

After some discussion about Delmar’s return to Fontera, the place Delmar likes to run away from, he said, “The Army hands you a command, you go wherever it is” (1).

These meetings with employees can create a two-way street in which employees can voice any concerns or expectations they may have while the manager can communicate organizational goals and areas for potential improvement. This sort of communication is made possible by the manager’s comprehension of the employee’s personality and their emotional nature (Sangeeta, 2014). The manager understands the employee’s personality and, therefore, their motivations and strengths as a worker. The characteristics of each personality type can be used to highlight areas in which improvement is needed as well as areas in which the employee performs well (Sangeeta, 2014).
