Second,somecharacteristics,suchasintelligence,initiative,stresstolerance,responsibility,friendliness,anddominance,weremodestlyrelatedtoleadershipsuccess.

PersonalityTraitsandLeadership

WhatisPersonality?

Personalityisfairlyambiguousandhasatleasttwoquitedifferentmeanings.

Onemeaningreferstotheimpressionapersonmakesonothers;emphasizesaperson’spublicreputation;andreflectsnotonlyadescriptionbutalsoanevaluationofthepersonintheeyesofothers.
