Desirable qualities and not so desirable qualities
Answers
Answer:
1. Be Empathetic
—Oxford Dictionaries
Empathy enables you to understand other people’s motivations, needs, and emotions more deeply, and you can use that understanding to create better products for them.
“Empathy is about standing in someone else’s shoes, feeling with his or her heart, seeing with his or her eyes. Not only is empathy hard to outsource and automate, but it makes the world a better place.”—Daniel H. Pink
intuition—“The ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning.”—Oxford Dictionaries
Having intuition is being open to the mysterious workings of your own mind—seeing what is or what might be clearly in your mind’s eye.
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”—Albert Einstein
“You have to trust in something—your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”—Steve Jobs
3. Be Creative
Being creative is allowing your intuition to reveal possibilities to you and following them in the moment—in other words, it’s being in flow….
What prompted Csikszentmihalyi to do research on the flow state? According to Wikipedia:
“Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and his fellow researchers began researching flow after Csikszentmihalyi became fascinated by artists who would essentially get lost in their work. Artists, especially painters, got so immersed in their work that they would disregard their need for food, water, and even sleep. Thus, the origin of research on the theory of flow came about when Csikszentmihalyi tried to understand this phenomenon experienced by these artists.”
The source of creativity is your imagination. When creating, you synthesize all of the ideas that you’ve taken in from myriad sources and, magically, all of those inputs fall into place, forming a cohesive whole. This is your intuition at work.
“To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination.”—Albert Einstein
“Creativity is just connecting things. … Creative people … [are] able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things.”—Steve Jobs
“Creativity is contagious.”—Albert Einstein
4. Be Passionate
With passion, your work ceases to feel like work.
Love your work and you’ll have the motivation to continually hone your skills and expand your areas of competency, as you must forever do in this field. When you work with passion, you can reach your full potential.
“Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.”—Aristotle
“You have to be burning with an idea, or a problem, or a wrong that you want to right. If you’re not passionate enough from the start, you’ll never stick it out.”—Steve Jobs
5. Be a Life-long Learner
Having the motivation and the ability to learn and grow throughout your life is an essential quality in today’s fast-changing world.
“Learning is a life-long process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.”—Peter Drucker
Qualities of Effective Team Members
Qualities that make you more effective when working with other people or on teams include being a good listener, being persuasive, being responsible, and being a leader.
6. Be a Good Listener
listening—“[Taking] notice of and [acting] on what someone says; [responding] to advice or a request.”—Oxford Dictionaries
Listening well is the key to effective communication. Focusing on both what people say and how they say it ensures that you accurately receive the messages people communicate to you.
