WHY IS IMPORTANT FOR MANAGERS AND EMPLOYEES TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND DIFFERENT TYPS OF PERSONALITY?

Every single person has a special way to behave in different situations of the life, this manner in how we see situations and respond to them are characterized by some special features that are part for our personality.

Therefore a manager having discovered these characteristics can uses this knowledge as a tool, and he is going to be able to move both employees into the area at where they are good at.

Also employees can use this capacity to recognize different personalities, to be able to create solutions according to the way they see the others are going to react, or maybe if they have some issues at the job with any colleague, if they are able to see how that person is and the way in how she/he behaves, one can be resolve the difficulty in a easier and faster way than if one doesn’t know and try with others solutions that may increase the disagreement between the parties.
