Discussion
Section 1: Identification of the Big five personality dimensions
Hosani,Elanain & Ajmal (2018) mentioned about the big five dimensions of
personality. It is a hierarchical model of personality that is depended on the five factors
namely – conscientiousness, neuroticism, extraversions, openness to experience, and
agreeableness for classification. These are the five major dimensions responsible to shape the
individual behaviour.
Conscientiousness – It describes the ability of the person for becoming self-disciplines, hard-
working, and dutiful for the organisation. This dimension refers that the ability of the human
conscience to become responsible for performing within the organisation from within, rather
than driven by some other forces of the inspiration (Lundgren, Kroon &Poell, 2017). For
example, highly conscientious people tend to be organized and perform important tasks
within the scheduled period of time.
Neuroticism – It is an opposing concept of emotional stability. The professional world needs
to be differentiated from the emotional connection. A person exhibits more or less aspects of

anxiety, nervousness, and the feeling of irritability. Gargiulo & Arroyo (2018) mentioned that

their personality to gather knowledge from others and create their own and unique notion
about the same topic. These features make a person a creative and innovative person. People
possessing extent of openness tend to become more creative in their field of living. Their
open mind is exhibited as a room for the concepts and experiences of others. For example,
people with high traits of openness can provide creative and innovative recommendations for

Agreeableness –It refers to the factors that demonstrate the ability of a person’s adoptability
of other group of people. This is the ability that demonstrates the basic nature of an
individual. It includes the kindness, cooperativeness, and other supporting characteristic traits
