MIAMI, FL, September 11, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The direct marketing firm, The Plato Group, dive deeper to expose the more precise personality factors that drive success.
It is well established that personality traits are predictive of success. The 'Big 5' factors of personality that are most focused on are: openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism. A proactive personality has also been found as a prime predictor of entrepreneurial success. Understanding the key entrepreneurial drivers is important for business success and development because it will enable pitfalls to be identified and actions can be put in place to avoid them. At the same time, strengths can be taken advantage of to ensure success.
In an entrepreneurial sense, these personality traits will help business leaders to control the fate of the company. Other factors such as economy and competition will influence the success of a business, but the owner is the most responsible. Proactive leaders with these personality traits will drive the success of their business and will:
- Be biased towards action
Instead of waiting for events to unfold, proactive leaders take charge to influence their environment and make things happen. Good opportunities can be easily identified, but it takes a proactive leader to take initiative of the opportunity and go after the idea.
- Be problem solvers
Many people encounter problems and turn the other way. Strong business leaders view problems as disguised opportunities and take the initiative to find a way to address the problem. Obstacles become personal challenges to overcome.
- Take personal responsibility
Proactive leaders have an internal focus of control and are less likely to let outside factors and influences negatively weigh them down. Proactive leaders take responsibility for their actions that people are willing to support and follow.
- Persevere until they reach their goals
Persistence is one of the key differentiators of success. When a person believes they can control their own success, it becomes significantly easier to persist because the goal line is always in sight.
- Look for self-improvement opportunities
Strong business leaders look to drive both business success and personal success. This involves taking steps to improve, including seeking feedback.
