Question

i need a survey in organization about personality and values .

Answer 1

Personality

Employees are individuals. How does their individuality affect their participation within an organization?

That is a big question, and there are different perspectives on how to answer it. Most answers place at least some emphasis on an individual’s personality. Though there are several approaches to defining personality, one commonly accepted formula for this is known as the “Big Five” personality traits, which you can remember using the acronym OCEAN. Personality psychologist Lewis Goldberg popularized the use of the following five traits in describing personality:

• Openness: how willing and eager an individual is to try new experiences and consider new ideas
• Conscientiousness: how concerned an individual is to be organized, punctual, reliable, and dependable
• Extraversion: how eager an individual is to be outgoing and have social interaction
• Agreeableness: how desirous an individual is to please others and be friendly, sensitive, and kind
• Neuroticism: how negative, moody, and emotionally unstable an individual is

• Values

• Personality traits are one large aspect of an individual’s makeup, but personal values introduce another vital area of interest and importance. Values are described as the stable, enduring goals that one has for life, the things that are counted as most important to the individual.

  As with personality traits, many systems have been proposed for analyzing the values of individuals. One widely accepted system was developed by Shalom H. Schwartz and is known as the Schwartz theory of basic values. It identifies 10 such basic values:

• Power
• Achievement
• Hedonism
• Stimulation
• Self-direction
• Universalism
• Benevolence
• Tradition
• Conformity
• Security
