Chinese Personality at Work - How Chinese are the Chinese?
This is a FREE webinar in PsyAsia's HRM themed webinar series. In this session we are pleased to present research on and answer questions about whether or not Chinese people are significantly different to other major groups and whether any potential differences are likely to impact upon the ability of personality tests to predict performance at work.
Some HR people in Asia believe that culture plays such a significant role in personality that indigenous personality attributes need to be assessed at recruitment/selection. To this end, personality tests have been developed "in Chinese for the Chinese by the Chinese". A significant question to ask is: Do these tests add any prediction over and above that afforded by mainstream personality tests developed by world renowned experts in the field?
The above questions will be answered through discussion of the trait model of personality and its biological basis. Peer-reviewed and published research conducted by PsyAsia International's award-winning Psychologist, Dr. Graham Tyler; award-winning Dr. Peter Newcombe of the University of Queensland; and world-renowned Professor Paul Barrett, formerly of the University of Auckland will be presented in an easy to understand format.
As always, the webinar is open to all HR and related professionals in our region. It is not open to competitors. You must provide your corporate email address when registering - we do not approve free email accounts such as yahoo/google/hotmail/rediffmail etc.
