Personality Psychology in the Workplace August 11, 2005

Actually, a few of the chapters were good and a few might be great to come back to if I needed to research a particular sub-topic (e.g., measuring personality through item response theory), but on balance I don't feel like I got much out of it. I'm just going to have to be more careful and pick books that read more like textbooks or self-contained technical books instead of an outlet for researchers to increase their publication count.

I hear there is a fabulous book on this topic, I believe it is called, let me think.....Personality and Organizations. I think it is by some chap by the name of....Smith perhaps?

I thought he gave you one when you were here Thanksgiving? If not, I'll bring you one in Tulsa.

Cool, get it autographed. By someone famous if possible, like Tom Clancy or Gandhi, but by Brent if not.
