CPQ BLOG

As I reviewed my scores for the CPQ assessment, I saw that some of my scores were above average and below average. The scores that I had that were above average on the CPQ were the Mastery 6.00(average 5.47) and Subjugation 5.00 (average 3.23) under the orientation of "Relation to Environment". The orientation for "Relationships among People", I had an above average score on Individual 5.38 (average 4.92). Orientation "Activity", I also had above average scores on Being 4.50 (average 4.41) and Thinking 6.25 average (5.23). In addition, Orientation "Nature of Humans", I was above average of Good/Evil 4.40 (average 4.02). Furthermore, My above average score on Orientation "time" under Present dimension was 5.00 (average 4.22). After looking at my above average scores for those categories, I agree on them which I say the results were accurate. For example, I had a high score on "Relationships among people" for Individuals of 5.38 because I do believe that our first responsibility is to ourselves of what is best for us and our immediate family. I think many people would agree on that too because seeing what we think should do for our lives is what comes into mind and many people do believe in family values and caring for them. Another example is "Activity" under Thinking, I have a high score on Thinking of 6.25 because I'm someone that is self-concious of what I do, which means I always consider all things carefully before taking any action upon it. Then my other example of "Time" under present was 5.00 because every day, there is a need and decisions have to be made to get something done.

The below average scores that I recieved on the CPQ varied. "Relation to Environment" under Harmony, I got a 5.29 (average is 5.58). I probably got a low score on that because I don't think we are able to control everything that happens in the environment, however, we can only control what we can do on our own part. In addition, "Relationships among people", I had a low score on collective 4.00 (average 5.03) because I probably work more productive if I'm working on something on my own, rather than being in a group. Although I like working in a group, i think there is probably more concentration in place when working on something. Then I had a low score on Hierachical 4.00 (average 4.22) that "It is normal and good that power and responsiblity are unequally distributed throughout society". I totally disagree on that because there are people out there that should have more power than others due to the fact that some people may have more experience and abilities to do something, but never get noticed within the company to rank up. My score on "Activity" under doing was 4.38 (average 5.25) because I don't think it's possible for every one to be continually engaged in accomplishing tangible tasks as some of them may be difficult to accomplish, people take breaks, and sometimes don't complete what they are suppose to do. Furthermore, My score on "Time" under Future 4.75 (average 4.53) was low because although we have to set the pace for what happens in the future, we can't really worry about that too much during the present time as there are other important things to worry about first. Lastly, my score on "Time" under Past was 4.75 (average 5.71) because we must move on from the past, and look forward to the future, and worry about the present.

Overall, I think that my scores on the CPQ were correct and accurate because I answered the questions based on what I believe and have experienced.
