Effects of Personality on Executive Career Success in the United States and Europe.
Boudreau, John W.; Boswell, Wendy R.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v58 n1 p53-81 Feb 2001
The NEO Personality Inventory and intrinsic and extrinsic career success measures were completed by 1,885 U.S. and 1,871 European executives. Neuroticism was associated with lower extrinsic success for U.S. executives, extroversion with higher extrinsic success for European executives. Extroversion was related positively and neuroticism negatively to intrinsic success for both. (Contains 87 references.) (SK)
