Showing results for "Personality" in Management & Leadership

We all know that IQ, education, knowledge, and technical skills are essential for professionals, but they alone are insufficient for effective leadership. Who you are as a person - your personality and character - drives leadership performance and determines who thrives and who fails. In Personality at Work, psychologist Ron Warren lays out the key personality traits that drive high performance - and the common traits that derail it.

This book offers a unique model for strategic leadership by encouraging leaders to think carefully about their personal leadership styles.
