Once you have read the article, write an essay that addresses the following four items:
- Define what personality is and discuss how individual differences between people can be explained by the Big Five model. Be sure to include the five different dimensions in your discussion and explain how they can affect people’s behavior at work.
- What are the key findings of the study and how do they contribute to our understanding of ethical leadership in times of crisis? Be sure to identify which personality traits were found to be associated with ethical leadership in both regular and crisis situations, and explain how the results can be linked to the situational strength theory.
- How can organizations identify future leaders using personality traits? Which methods would be helpful for this purpose? Be sure to discuss how these methods can be related to the interactionist perspective (aka, the role of fit).
- To learn more about your personality, complete the self-assessment for Part B below, and once you have calculated your results, share the following thoughts in your essay:
- Did you expect the overall results? How well do they capture your personality in general?
- For each of the personality traits, do you find yourself agreeing or disagreeing with the results? Please explain why in each case by providing examples from your personal and/or professional life.
- How could these results have an impact on your career and professional relationships with others?
Please remember to address all items in a single essay that is in APA format (7th edition) with a minimum body of 3 pages in length (which does not include the cover page, reference page, etc.).
