About the Rusults of PMAI
The PMAI results about me illustrate that,Innocent,Magician ,Sage and Creator are the most active archetype in my life.Whereas Orphan may not often express in my life currently.
In fact,I always hear that people think me is too innocent at my age.But I found the description of Innocent is completely fit for me.I have a basic trust to other people and belive it's a safe world.I always underestimate difficulties,become overly confident or optimistic.I should cultivate the ability of anticipate difficulties. On another aspect,I try to avoid temptation,I belive that simple life will drive to happiness.
In my life journey, I found I am a catalyst indeed,I can easily influnce my friends and my partners around.I confused about it before.But now,I can understand it.The Magician is that kind of person can influnce other people.I need down-to-earth working and learning,Being aware of how other people think and act.Doing inner work that fosters awareness of psychological forces.
Actually,I don't think I am Sage archetype currently,maybe when I fulfill my potential.
The result really let me become a little more conscious about myself.Also give me some suggestions.I should understand it deeply to help my life journey.

The Pros/Cons of Trait Based Leadership Theories
Galton's Hereditary Genius。In his theory,he denify leadership as a unique property of extraordinary individuals whose decisions are capable of sometimes radically changing the streams of history. But in our work or in our life,leadership not only about changing history. The significant is much more broader.In his difinition,it's too narrow. Whereas his theoy provid a basic model in leadership research.
The second significant point in this theory is that grounds the unique attributes of such individuals in their inherited or genetic makeup. It means leadership can't be fostered. It's too sweeping. Each need to be accuratly proved on sufficient study.For example,honesty is a significant trait to perform leadership,it's depands on a person's growth enviornment

Intro-About Me and Leadership
I'm Zhen Fang,come from China,take part in a exchange program named SDSU/Hotel. I will study in SDSU for one semester,then have a intership in Marriott for six months.
I often work in teams play a role of leader. I am a relatively self-confident person, in the team to decide when to resolutely make judgments, make the team more efficient. I'm also can drive the team other member, manufacturing a vision. Then, we work together for the goal.
However, I have a big disadvantage that's I often cannot persist in my job, resulting in members of the team will slowly not trust in me. Insist, is the trait what I want to gain. I hope that through this semester's study about leadership and self-management can make me change.
leadership is a kind of capability that can distinguish from leader and un-leader ,leader are able to lead the followers to achieve the goal.
Yun Ma,found Alibaba cop. and Taobao website,the biggest B2B and C2C platform in Chia.He ruined E-bey' Chinese Dream.
leaders who have the requisite traits—drive, desire to lead, self-confidence, honesty (and integrity),cognitive ability, and industry knowledge—have a considerable advantage over those who lack these traits.
Lunch?Well,yes-but what are you long-term goal?
“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.”
------ Thomas Jefferson
These traits not simply multiple, but combine in conceptually meaningful ways , are more likely to predict leadership. The dominant leader trait patterns are likely to be those that reflect an individual’s stable tendency to lead in different ways across disparate organizational domains.

Leader Traits I Admire
the first one I admired the most is tenacity. A person who have this trait and use it in a right way can achieve a success in his/her field。 They have the capacity to work with distant objects in view and have a degree of strength of will or perseverance. For example,Walt Disney founded Disneyland. In the process he really met a lot of difficulties,like financial problem. But he still can overcome all of them.
Walt Disney
Do not , for one repulse , give up the purpose that you resolved to effect
------William Shakespeare
Ambition also is very important to be a successful leader,I think. Leaders are very ambitious about their work and careers and have a desire to get ahead. To advance, leaders actively take steps to demonstrate their drive and determination.
Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you believe that you too can become great.
------Mark Twain
Honesty is another trait that I admire. Without this quality, leadership is under mined. It form the foundation of a trusting relationship between leader and followers.
'We've laid off our entire legal department since we've gone with the honesty is the best policy approach.'
