Leaders have to orchestrate diverse contributions from individuals with different personalities to build great teams. Occasionally, team members might decide to act out of character and engage in behaviour that is outside their comfort zone to advance the team goal. To reduce the risk of burning out or compromising physical health, there should be restorative niches in which they can be their natural selves again.
Dr Brian Little, Research Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Judge Business School at the University of Cambridge, will speak about how personality matters at Agile Cambridge 2017. The conference will be held on September 27-29 in Cambridge.
