Great new research out on the problem with those pesky "personality types" we all love to label ourselves with and why they aren't relevant. This research points to the Big Five personality traits and builds from there. Read ahead and decide your personality type based on this new research. Caution...these personality labels aren't exactly euphamistic. * Elevating the Business of People * G. LaRue & Company

Great article! Thankfully, I had a great mentor and friend who helped me navigate some of the paradoxes that come with being a professional, black executive who is also an openly gay man. He always encouraged me to "show up as my whole self"...to be authentic even when it was challenging. Working in a mostly white, male dominated industry and working in a mostly female dominated profession like HR...I'm grateful to have had his guidance. Btw, pick up his new book, 'Attentive Leadership' available on Amazon.com

Many modern day leaders strive to create inclusive and "nice" work environments for their employees. The truth is...they may be doing more harm than good. I've longed believed and witnessed throughout my 20+ yr HR career that respect not "niceness" in the workplace is more critical to an organization's overall success * G. LaRue & Company * Elevating the Business of People

it’s time we admit that there’s an aggressive nature inherent in workplaces that demand, directly and indirectly, that everyone be nice.
