Personalitate i nivel managerial

This study investigates the relationship between personality traits and managerial level. Personality traits were assessed by using the Romanian version of the California Psychological Inventory – 260 (Gough, 2002). The inclusion criteria in the three managerial groups (low level management, middle level management and high level management) were the number of subordinates and the reported distance from the CEO. Data were collected from the managers at a few companies from the fast moving consumer goods and telecom industry. Results indicated that some personality traits varied significantly across the three groups of managers. Moreover the scores on three scales appear to vary significantly across males and females samples.
