The Dark-side of Personality: Overcoming Performance Risks in Leadership

Executive Briefing – September 15, 2022 – Gothenburg

How well do you know the people you put in charge?

Too often, when organisations identify leadership potential, they focus on politically savvy people who stand out, build connections, and know-how to influence others. But this can be a mistake. Effective leaders spend their time building and maintaining highly effective teams but often get overlooked. Being a great leader is hard work and requires that leaders know their strengths and weaknesses and understand the impact their behaviours have on their teams and their stakeholders – especially under pressure.

The dark side of personality consists of characteristics that emerge in times of increased strain. Left unchecked, these derailers can disrupt relationships, damage reputations, and derail people’s and organisations’ chances of success. By assessing dark-side personality, you can recognize and mitigate performance risks before they become a problem. To address this, A&D Resources in partnership with Hogan Assessments is hosting the “The Dark Side of Personality: Overcoming Performance Risks in Leadership” Executive Briefing in Gothenburg on September 15. 

Agenda topics include:

  • What are dark-side personality characteristics
  • How to identify derailers in leaders
  • What impact do dark-side personalities have on teams and organisations
  • How to mitigate performance risks

 

This exclusive Executive Briefing is an intimate peer-to-peer roundtable discussion meeting for a select group of senior HR, leadership development, talent development, talent acquisition, organisational development, and learning and development executives, together with senior business executives to share knowledge and best practices, debate key personality characteristics, and network with peers and leadership development experts. The presentations and discussion are followed by a cocktail reception to carry on the debate.
