From the Paper:

"Throughout the experience of having taken the "Group Motivation Inventory" (GMI), I have learned a considerable amount of information in regards to not only myself, but also how I operation in groups. However, the subjective results of this exercise brought me to learn that I actually function quite well with others, particularly given a few traits which I consistently exhibit. These traits would be those of mediator, fair leader, and team player. My capacity to lead in a fair fashion, which results in respect as opposed to opposition, is highly useful and also effective in groups, in that direction is essential should a destination or goal expect to be reached. When there is disagreement about a goal within a group, it is important to assess whether the task is structured but beyond that the consensus amongst the group must be assessed.
