With the Big Five, personality psychology offers a sound basis for describing and understanding individual characteristics. The five dimensions of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and emotional stability show how people think, feel, and act — and how they perform in a professional context.
What do the Big Five measure?
The model describes five fundamental dimensions that shape our behavior and experience
- Openness – curious, creative, willing to learn
- Conscientiousness – organized, responsible, goal-oriented
- Extraversion – energetic, sociable, assertive
- Agreeableness – cooperative, empathetic, considerate
- Emotional stability – calm, resilient, stress-resistant
The analysis reveals a person's distinctive characteristics, where their potential lies, and how they deal with change, responsibility, or conflict.
At hrdiamonds, we use the Big Five to reveal potential: Where do my strengths lie? How do I deal with responsibility, change, or conflict? And how can I work even better in a team?
Those who understand their own personality develop more consciously, thereby strengthening not only themselves but also cooperation in their team.
