Here’s a useful review showing that executive personalities shape a wide range of organisational processes and practices, from strategic leadership and corporate governance to human resources policies, and ultimately, firm performance. A wide range of personality factors are reviewed here, from the most studied traits of executives (i.e., positive self-regard: core self-evaluations, narcissism, hubris and overconfidence), to the broad frameworks many are familiar with like the Big Five and the Dark Triad. Assess personality when you’re hiring people for positions of power.
