The personality factor: how top management teams make decisions. A literature review

Abstract: Past research has increasingly suggested that CEO/TMT personality can play a relevant role in influencing various external (e.g. firm performance) and internal (e.g. firm organizational structure) management outcomes. These promising results need appropriate systematization and discussion, which we aim at providing through a literature review based on rigorous inclusion/exclusion criteria.

“…In general, scholars should develop more extended research frameworks. Hopefully, these frameworks should adopt validated and all inclusive psychometric instruments for assessing the top decision-makers' overall personality traits (Abatecola et al, 2011;Chatterjee and Hambrick, 2011). In this regard, the Five-Factor Model of personality (McCrae and Costa, 1987) has been proved to be valid across different cultures and many results from psychology and psychiatry currently support its overall reliability as an all-inclusive personality model.…”

“…In particular, consistently with prior systematic assessments of governance literature (e.g., Abatecola, Mandarelli, & Poggesi, 2013;Pugliese et al, 2009), we select all articles published in peer reviewed journals, written in English language resulting from searching the combination of the words "governance" and "voluntary disclosure," "nonfinancial reporting," "ESG disclosure," and "CSR disclosure," in the keywords of the articles. The peer reviewed journal criteria ensure us the reliability of the empirical analyses in each article included in the sample, and the meaningful of our meta-analysis.…”

“…Although this article has illustrated that the relationship between the board socio-demographic features and distress has received attention over the years, scholars should develop more extended research frameworks. In particular, these frameworks could adopt validated and all inclusive psychometric instruments for assessing the top decision makers' overall personality traits (Abatecola, Mandarelli, & Poggesi, 2013). In this regard, the Five-Factor Model of personality (McCrae & Costa 1987 6 has been proved to be valid across different cultures and many results from psychology and psychiatry currently support its overall reliability as an all-inclusive personality model.…”
