PERSONALITY
Describe the following base on your perception:
YourselfClassmatesVincentian Students
“Personality is more than charm… poise… or physical appearance…”
PERSONALITY
“The overall pattern, or the integration of his structures, modes of behavior, interests, attitudes, intellectual abilities, aptitudes, and many other distinguishable personality traits.”
Business students need to understand personality because of the part it plays in…
motivation human relations leadership / management Failure in business, industry, and any occupation may often be
attributed to personality problems rather than lack of aptitude.
Two Factors that Give Rise to Personality
(Causes of Individual Differences)
Heredity “the transmission of characteristics traits from parents to offspring biologically through the genes”
Color of your hair Body build Eye color Etc….
Environment
“all the conditions outside the living organism which influence its growth, development, and behavior from the time it is conceived to the time it dies”
Two Kinds of Environment
Prenatal Environment Influences the individual before birth, including the
condition of the mother during the development of the baby.
Postnatal Environment The environment after birth, life continues to come
under the influence of many varied environmental stimuli. Home Influence Neighborhood Influences School Experiences Training Effort of the Will Sexual Orientation
Your Reaction to this:
Boys tend to be active and aggressive, less neat and exacting than girls
Boys seem to be superior in mathematical and
scientific subjects, while girls excel in the language arts, spelling and penmanship
Boys surpass girls in tests of spatial nature, of
mechanical aptitude and of general information, while girls excel in tests of manual dexterity, speed and precision
A smaller percentage of girls than boys tend to be
mentally retarded
Aspects of Personality
1. The Physical Aspect entire physiological system that determined by the heredity and
environment (physique)
Four Kinds of Personality Based on Physique (Krestchmer)Athletic Type - tall and well-builtAsthenic Type - tall and thin (schizothyme), highly
idealistic, unsociable and deep thinker, the introvert typePyknic Type – short and fat (cyclothymiacs), happy-go-
lucky, adaptable, alternates between moods of elation and depression but will be predominantly extroverted
Dysplastic Type – the non-classified type
2. The Mental Aspect how the person talks, the range of ideas he expresses, the things he talks about, as well as his values and mental alertness give
evidence of his intellectual capacity. (intelligence > education)
3. The Emotional Aspect how the person responds when tings become difficult, emotional makeup his likes and dislikes, aggressive or docile, how quickly he is given to anger, whether he can take
a job or not, what kind of sense of humor he possesses and the like
4. The Social Aspect social contact / how well a person conducts himself
with other people and how well he observes the rules of etiquette that
govern society extroverts, introverts, and ambiverts (George Crane)
Extroverts:

happiness act immediately on what

5. The Spiritual Aspect the consciousness of the higher value in life. It
includes the person’s faith, beliefs, philosophy and the like. Religion expresses spiritual value.
6. The Moral Aspect
has to do with the person’s awareness of the difference between what is wrong or right, his positive or negative adherence to the do’s and don’ts of the society.
Personality Factors Related to Job Production and Turnover (Barton & Catell) determine whether a person will be promoted, not promoted or leave the job
Experiment: (Three hundred and nine high school seniors were tested on Cattel’s Sixteen
Personality Factor Questionnaire in 2007 and again 5 years later, in 2012, after leaving school for employment.)
Analyses Examined: possible selective personality factors associated with job promotion or job change changes in personality related to job promotion or job change Results:
the incidence of job promotion was higher in subjects who scored high in such personality factors as warm heartedness and group dependency.
the lowest incidence of job turnover was found in subjects who were more practical and down to earth
dominance and guilt proneness tended to decrease in subjects who were promoted, whereas an increase in shrewdness was obscured. A drop in guilt proneness occurred in subjects who kept the same job.
The Filipino Values and Personality
Values affect business and the management of the organizations.
An understanding of the values and attitudes of the Filipino would help us in understanding the Filipino and how these values would affect business and management of organizations in the Philippine setting.
VALUE “anything good, important, and desirable in life.”
Total Value System = Standard for Decision Aims and Goals Father Lynch Father Bulatao - social acceptance - emotional closeness and - economic security - security in family- social mobility - approval by the authority
and social betterment - patience and suffering and
enduranceThey characterized Filipino as
They characterized Filipino as:PersonalisticAuthoritarianSmall group centered
Social Acceptance
-most frequently observed patterns of Filipino behavior which is
desirable to him, the ability to accept fellow for what one is,
thinks one’s self to be, or would like to be, and
be given the treatment due to one’s station.
A. Smoothness of Interpersonal Relations (SIR)
Pakikisama: (Debt of Gratitude) = expanded by the term “utang na loob”
Context of Principle of Reciprocity
“Bata” system relationship in office whether private or public, a patronized individual, protégée, confidential man, a close friend, loyal compadre, familism…
Majority of Cases of Two Types of Employees (Philippine Setting)
1. those who know their jobs and can also get along with others
“marunong na, marunong pang
makisama”
2. those who do not know their jobs but can get along with others
“marunong makisama”
Clear Pictures of Dynamics of “Utang na Loob”1. A person who is helped is expected to show
his gratitude otherwise, he will be branded as “walang hiya” especially if the debt of gratitude is extremely great.
2. A Filipino may patronize a store, not because the products are good or because it has a good reputation for offering discounts, but because he has “utang na loob” to the owner.
3. One may get job even if he is not the most competent among the applicants just because he has the personal ties, the family connections and family solidarity.
4. One may not have the courage to protest an assignment because of the prevailing emphasis on “utang na loob” obligation.
“Concession” (other side of pakikisama) - tendency to behave as part of a group so that he becomes obligated to the group.
Situationer:A student on the eve of his final exams goes with his
“barkada” to a late night party, in spite of the cramming he has to do. He does not want to be called “walang pakisama”.
A businessman employs an inefficient and lazy nephew in his company and in spite of all the allowances, it is not easy for the uncle to fire him”. The verdict of
‘walang pakikisama” threatens to break the smooth interpersonal relationship with the family of his nephew. The idea of “pakikisama” here is “giving in”.
B. Sensitivity to Personal Affront(disrespect) - “Amor Propio” (Self-Esteem)
“an emotional high tension wire that girds the Filipino’s self, protecting him from disparagement (critism) or questioning the qualities he most zealously guards as his own best claim to others’ respect and esteem”
displaying superficial behavior (pakitang tao)impresses others with his possessions
(pagpaparangya) Situationer:In school, students quitting school just because
teachers criticize them beyond their endurance. Employees resigning just because they have been
reprimanded. The anxiety to make the other person feel good.
Personality to Business. The most distinctive of any individual, is one of the major qualifications in applying for a job. Personality shows itself even when there are no people around to impress.Examples are the trait of accuracy, punctuality and cleanliness
An Effective PersonalityThe key to effective personality is the ability to adjust equally well to various types of life situations, to make those responses which result in the greatest satisfaction of both oneself and one’s associates and generally, adjustment to a given area of his environment.
Mature Personality “an individual’s pattern habits, attitudes, and traits as well as of adjustment that determines the maintenance of his self-respect in relation to his environment”Mature personality development requires the proper blending of the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of life.
Earmarks of a Mature Personality
