Trivia

Anxiety is in Costa and McCrae’s big five sub-dimensions describing neuroticism. People with high levels of anxiety worry easily, tend to be tense and jittery. They may feel that something dangerous is about to happen.
Openness is one of the dimensions of the so-called big five of Costa and McCrae (OCEAN). People who score high in the openness dimension are full of unorthodox ideas, imagination and curiosity. They are intellectually very interesting people and open to new emotions. They have unconventional beliefs and creative ideas. They also like to try […]
Conscientiousness is one of the dimensions of the big five of Costa and McCrae (OCEAN). High test scorers in conscientiousness like to plan, organize and prioritize this over spontaneity. Conscientiousness increases with age, then declines again later in life.
Agreeableness is one of the dimensions of the so-called big five of Costa and McCrae (OCEAN). People who score high in agreeableness tend to maintain what might be called social harmony. They care about contacts between people, they are caring, kind and trusting. They usually have an optimistic view of human nature.
Neuroticism is one of the dimensions of the so-called Big Five of Costa and McCrae (OCEAN). People who score high on neuroticism tests more often than others interpret specific situations as threatening, they get rid of negative emotions for a long time, and it is harder to endure pressure and the clash with the challenges […]
Extraversion is one of the dimensions of the so-called big five of Costa and McCrae (OCEAN). High test scorers in extroversion are ambitious, involved in the outside world, enjoy interacting with people, and are often perceived as energetic, enthusiastic, and action-oriented.
OCEAN is an acronym for successive personality traits, the so-called Big Five of Paul Costa and Robert McCrae, i.e. openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism. An alternative abbreviation is CANOE (canoe). This model began to be developed in the 1960s. Historically, these traits can be compared to temperament traits. And so, the sanguine […]
People with a manipulative communication style have charm and usually the type of charm that is hard to resist. They willingly express words of appreciation, notice topics that can be praised, use charm to influence, do not say everything they think and care a lot about making a good impression.
The emotional style can be recognized by the fact that people who are dominant are easily moved, talk about their memories, tend to worry, and sometimes fear paralyzes their actions. These are people who, due to their level of sensitivity, are very easily offended.
People with an inquisitive communication style often try to understand other people and their motivations, which may be perceived by some as inappropriate and meddling. People with this style are intrigued by philosophical topics and, whenever possible, participate in conversations about the deeper aspects of human existence. They are also creative people who have very […]
I’m sure we’ve all met people with an aggressive communication style at some point. This way of conversing, which is difficult to manage for building relationships, is typical for people who tend to explode with anger, they can take out their frustration on others, they are happy to distribute tasks, say what needs to be […]
People with a precise communication style can be recognized by the fact that their statements are structured and the threads are clearly related to each other. Such people try to think about what they will say, are reluctant to speak out on trivial matters, and strive to be concise. In short, their statements carry weight […]
Communication styles are cataloged in many ways, but the CSI (Communication Styles Inventory) distinguishes six of them, one of which is the expressive style. People with this style can be recognized by the fact that they often and easily take the initiative in conversation, they talk a lot, suggest the topic of conversation, have a […]
Personality tests are tests that measure traits that have been defined by one personality theory or another. One of the first theories of personality, whose author was Hippocrates, stated that there are four distinct temperaments among people: sanguine, choleric, melancholic, and phlegmatic. The personality test will use questions to measure the severity of these traits. […]
Cultural differences are differences in the way of looking at and interpreting the same things, situations, symbols, relationships, messages, etc. In business practice, it comes down to the fact that we interpret the employee-employer relationship differently, we consider different things to be acceptable or unacceptable, we judge people differently and what we expect from a […]
Personality is a set of characteristics that distinguishes one person from another. It describes the way we feel our thoughts and feelings. It should be essentially unchanged throughout our lives, regardless of our experience, age and knowledge. Personality allows us to understand many behaviors and preferences, including preferred communication styles. The study of personality traits […]
The terms pity, compassion, and empathy are sometimes used interchangeably. They all represent positive, altruistic qualities, but they do not refer to exactly the same experience. Pity only means that you are sorry. You don’t do anything about it. Next comes sympathy: you understand how someone feels. Empathy is the full sense of feeling what […]
In The Theory of Evil, Simon Baron-Cohen makes a well-founded thesis that empathy is the only source of kindness, patience, and understanding, while a lack of it is the main source of evil in the broader sense. A lack of empathy makes interpersonal relationships cold, difficult, harsh, and sometimes very dangerous. People who have very […]
Different people express their needs, ideas and opinions in different ways. A communication style is a bit like a “communication protocol”. If you choose the wrong one for your targeted recipient, the message may not be decoded or it will be decoded incorrectly. Some say everything directly, others communicate in such a way that you […]
Empathy isn’t that hard. We have it encoded deep within our human operating system. It’s enough not to drown out this skill and then develop it. Small gestures, appropriate words and behavior can improve the situation in a team significantly. Along with that, creativity, commitment, readiness to sacrifice, willingness to stay with the company for […]
Less commitment, a reduced ability to notice and process data, a readiness to look for a job elsewhere, health problems… these are just a few of the problems that result from a bad work environment. Add to that the fact that people don’t want to help others, and the scores get even lower. This should […]
The fact that the working environment is not a separate dimension, where good and bad actions are closed off and do not leave the walls of offices and invisible borders set by messengers and emails – probably everyone already knows. It is worth mentioning however, that by allowing unempathetic behavior into an organization, we act […]
“Don’t bring your work home!” This is more or less the golden rule from people who have no solutions for you, but like to lecture. However, it is still important because negative emotions are like a wave, and our breakwaters are inner and outer circles of loved ones – who also suffer under the crushing […]
It is not without reason that they say that people with few problems sleep well. The quality of our sleep is a good diagnosis of our emotional state, this includes the situation at work. The short-term consequences of sleep disruption include increased stress responses, somatic problems, reduced quality of life, mood disorders, and other mental […]
We are all social beings, but in an individualistic culture the consequences of this fact are not clear enough. Well, as individuals, we have a rather fixed amount of energy to use and we use it according to priorities. Relationships are very important for humans (because they determine our ability to survive), so they take […]
Focusing on the effect and forgetting about people and their needs does not end well for businesses. Of course, people can be programmed to be insensitive to these disadvantages. Indeed, one can internalize and glorify such a phenomena. Then, you can hear a statement from employees expressed directly or between the lines that this is […]
Empathy is becoming a key skill for a 21st century leader. The number of innovators increases by more than 40% if that leader is empathetic. 76% of those who experienced empathy from their leaders said they were engaged at work – compared to just 32% who experienced less empathy. These are powerful numbers that no […]
Empathy – it sounds so soft which doesn’t fit the stereotype of a tough, psychopathic business leader straight from the 1980s. Fortunately, tempora mutantur et nos mutamur in illis, the times are a changin’ and so are we. And so both Tim Cook, CEO of Apple and Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, declared that empathy […]
