BY:•Chhitiz Shrestha•Satish Khadka•Leeza Shrestha•Zhang Peng
Introduction (Personality)The pattern of characteristic thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors that distinguishes one person from another and that persists over time and situation,
Is fairly stable and predictable throughout different situations and time,
Dependent on the situation, personality traits may be more or less visible and personality may also develop over time,
Changes which reflect events and feelings during the lifespan only affect the surface and not the core character
Profound changes in personality are usually consequences of major life changes or deliberate effort
The “5 Personality Traits”The big 5 personality traits are:
NeuroticismExtraversionOpenness to experienceAgreeablenessConscientiousness
NeuroticismTendency to experience negative
emotions, such as anger, anxiety, or depression
Low levels of neuroticism indicate emotional stability
High levels of neuroticism increase the likelihood of experiencing negative emotions
Contrasts emotional stability and even-temperedness with negative emotionality, such as feeling anxious, nervous, sad, and tense
ExtraversionCharacterized by positive emotions, surgency,
and the tendency to seek out stimulation and the company of others
Implies an energetic approach to the social and material world

waiters.To make the study vaster, different genders and age group
interviewed
ResultsMore of the staffs were emotionally stable yet
some also were easily disturbed and irritated.9 people had low levels of neuroticism and 6
people had high levels of neuroticismMore of the staffs found themselves
comfortable around people and being focal point of attraction
Noticeably the roles requiring high human interaction had high levels of extraversion
The people who had lower level of extraversion were related to housekeeping, gardening and security
ResultsAccording to our survey 9 people had high
level of openness to experiencePeople from mixed roles had high levels of
openness to experience Eg. Manager, waiter, gardener, etc
However about 6 people had other opinionsLike openness to experience more people had
high levels of agreeablenessMost staff members found themselves
making people at ease, feeling concerned for others and sympathizing with others

Weakness of the study“5 Personality Traits” neglects traits as:
Religiosity Manipulativeness Honesty Conservativeness Masculinity/Femininity Sense of humor
FindingsA person's ratings has been found to change with
time, with Agreeableness and Conscientiousness increasing, while Extroversion, Neuroticism, and Openness generally decrease as a person ages
Women scored higher in both the Agreeableness and Neuroticism
People with roles which are more interactive seem to have high extraversion and openness to experience
People with roles which are less interactive seem to have high neuroticism.
SuggestionsPeople can be more motivated to their work if their
personality is adaptable, proactive and resilient.Following order, the rules and work schedule can
help improve the conscientiousnessNeuroticism can be improved by avoiding anger,
anxiety and depressionBut, we cannot ask someone to change their
personalityYet giving attention to emotional stability,
creativity and appreciativeness create an attractive personality
