TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER

The most successful and effective leaders -- from high school student council to business offices large and small to the halls of government -- have two dominant personality traits: they are extroverted and conscientious. That's the word from Dr. Timothy Judge, a professor of business at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, who conducted a meta-analysis of previous research to determine which of the five big personality traits were most important for leadership effectiveness, reports Business Insider Australia.

These are five big personality traits:

  1. Openness to experience: inventive and curious vs. consistent and cautious 
  2. Conscientiousness: efficient and organized vs. easy-going and careless 
  3. Extroversion: outgoing and energetic vs. solitary and reserved 
  4. Agreeableness: friendly and compassionate vs. analytical and detached 
  5. Neuroticism: sensitive and nervous vs. secure and confident
