liderazgo, liderazgo transformacional, liderazgo transaccional, liderazgo pasivo-evitativo, personalidad, Modelo de los cinco grandesResumen
En el presente artículo se desarrolla una revisión bibliográfica de investigaciones académicas en el campo de la psicología organizacional; específicamente, se incluyen algunos estudios de liderazgo, realizados desde el siglo pasado hasta hoy. El propósito de esta revisión es identificar si existe una correlación entre el liderazgo eficaz y los distintos rasgos de personalidad que caracterizan al líder. Cabe anotar que las investigaciones sobre la relación entre personalidad y liderazgo se han incrementado a partir del surgimiento del modelo de los cinco grandes. Sin embargo, los hallazgos han sido heterogéneos en lo que respecta a cuál rasgo (extraversión, amabilidad, conciencia, neuroticismo y apertura a la experiencia) explica un estilo de liderazgo transformacional, transaccional o pasivo- evitativo.
