  1. Chapter 8 Personality

  2. Chapter Goals • The goal of this chapter is to explore how leadership leads to ethical dilemmas where our ethics, values, and attitudes are directly involved.

  3. Personality has two meanings: • The first meaning refers to the impression a person makes on others. • The second meaning refers to the unseen structures and processes inside a person that explain why we behave the way we do.

  5. “Big Five” model of personality Cont.

  6. Big Five Model • Advantages of the Big Five Model • Most personality researchers currently use one form of the Big Five Model. • The model is usefully categorized. • It is a useful heuristic for categorizing or profiling people. • It appears to be universally applicable across cultures.

  7. Big Five Model Cont. • Disadvantages of the Big Five Model • Some argue that five factors are not enough to adequately encompass all the different personality traits. • The Big Five personality dimensions tend to be fairly heterogeneous internally, which makes them poor predictors of job performance as compared to personality traits.

  8. Dark-side Personality Traits • Dark-side personality traits are irritating or counterproductive behavioral tendencies which interfere with a leader’s ability to form cohesive teams and cause followers to exert less effort towards goal accomplishment.

  9. Personality Traits • Preferences distinguish one personality from another, based on four basic dimensions: • extraversion-and-introversion • sensing-and-intuition • thinking-and-feeling • judging-and-perceiving
