Why Personality Development classes important for

students?
If you have a good personality, the chances of being noticed increase by several folds.
When you have an attractive personality, the first impression on the person in front of
you is always good. If you are at an interview or just meeting someone for the first time,
you will feel confident. To make the person in front of you to have faith in you, a good
personality is very important. A few years ago, the concept of personality development
was not that popular but as the competition is increasing in the market, every aspect of
human behavior is being explored to gain success in life. The importance of personality
development can be stated as follows:
Confidence
If you have a good personality, you will feel confident. Properly dressed and well-
groomed person is always liked by the peers and it makes you less anxious while meeting
someone for the first time. If you are confident, you will gain control of the situation.
Change in attitude
A positive attitude gives you a chance to flourish on the path of success in life. A person
with a positive attitude will always think of the best of the situation and can take
advantage of the worst possible situations in life. When life gives you a lemon, you can
make lemonade and enjoy life if you have a good personality.
Improved communication skills
During the personality development classes, there is a lot of emphasis on the
communication skills as well. It is important in both personal and professional life. If you
know how to behave in front of a group of people and your seniors, you will always get
better options in life.
Lewis Goldberg‘s personality theory is also known as “The Big Five” or

the “Five Factor Model.” It came out of different studies that saw a repeated
emphasis on certain personality traits as a way to determine what a person is
like.
OCEAN: The Five Factors
Openness to Experience concerns an individual’s willingness to try to new
things, to be vulnerable, and the ability to think outside the box. Openness to
experience has been found to contribute to the likelihood of obtaining
a leadership position, likely due to the ability to entertain new ideas. Openness
is also connected to universalism values, which include promoting peace and
tolerance and seeing all people as equally deserving of justice and equality.
Common traits related to openness to experience include:
● Imaginative
● Insightful
● A wide variety of interests
● Original
● Daring
● Preference for variety
● Clever
● Creative
● Curious
● Perceptive
● Intellectual
● Complex/Deep
An individual who is high in openness to experience is likely someone who
has a love of learning, enjoys the arts, engages in a creative career or hobby,
and likes meeting new people.
Conscientiousness This factor has been linked to achievement, conformity,

and seeking out security, as well as relating negatively to placing a premium
on stimulation and excitement Those high in conscientiousness are also likely
to value order, duty, achievement, and self-discipline, and consciously
practice deliberation and work towards increased competence and
people excel in their ability to work within the rules, plan and organize
effectively.
Traits within the conscientiousness factor include:
● Persistent
● Ambitious
● Thorough
● Self-disciplined
● Consistent
● Predictable
● Controlled
● Reliable
● Resourceful
● Hard working
● Energetic
● Persevering
● Planner
Someone who is high in conscientiousness is likely to be successful in school
and in their career, to excel in leadership positions, and to doggedly pursue
their goals with determination and forethought.
A person who is low in conscientiousness is much more likely to procrastinate,

to be flighty, impetuous, and impulsive.
Extroversion
This factor has two familiar ends of the spectrum: extroversion and
introversion. It concerns where an individual draws their energy and how they
interact with others. In general, extroverts draw energy or “recharge” from
interacting with others, while introverts get tired from interacting with others
and replenish their energy from solitude. Those who score high in
extroversion are likely to make friends easily and enjoy interacting with others.
The traits associated with extroversion are:
Sociable
Assertive
Merry
Outgoing
Energetic
Talkative
Articulate
Fun-loving
Affectionate
Friendly
Socially confident
Agreeableness
This factor concerns how well people get along with others. While
extroversion concerns sources of energy and the pursuit of interactions with
others, agreeableness concerns your orientation to others. Agreeable
individuals tend to value benevolence, tradition, and conformity while avoiding
placing too much importance on power, achievement, or the pursuit of selfish
pleasures.
The following traits fall under the umbrella of agreeableness:
● Altruistic
● Trusting
● Modest
● Humble
● Patient
● Moderate
● Tactful
● Polite
● Kind
● Loyal
● Unselfish
● Helpful
● Sensitive
● Amiable
● Cheerful
● Considerate

People high in agreeableness tend to be well-liked, respected, and sensitive

to the needs of others. They likely have few enemies, are sympathetic, and
affectionate to their friends and loved ones, as well as sympathetic to the
plights of strangers.
People on the low end of the agreeableness spectrum are less likely to be
trusted and liked by others. They tend to be callous, blunt, rude, ill-tempered,
antagonistic, and sarcastic. Although not all people who are low in
agreeableness are cruel or abrasive, they are not likely to leave others with a
warm fuzzy feeling.
Neuroticism
Neuroticism is the one Big Five factor in which a high score indicates more
negative traits. Neuroticism is not a factor of meanness or incompetence, but
one of confidence and being comfortable in one’s own skin. It encompasses
one’s emotional stability and general temper. Neuroticism is related to added
difficulties in life, including addiction, poor job performance, and unhealthy
adjustment to life’s changes..
These traits are commonly associated with neuroticism:
● Awkward
● Pessimistic
● Moody
● Jealous
● Testy
● Fearful
● Nervous
● Anxious
● Timid
● Wary
● Self-critical
● Unconfident
● Insecure
● Unstable
● Oversensitive
●
Those high in neuroticism are generally given to anxiety, sadness, worry, and
low self-esteem. They may be temperamental or easily angered, and they
tend to be self-conscious and unsure of themselves.
Individuals who score on the low end of neuroticism are more likely to feel
confident, sure of themselves, and adventurous. They may also be brave and
unencumbered by worry or self-doubt.
The Big Five can help you to learn more about your unique personality and
help you decide where to focus your energy and attention.
I hope you find a good scale to learn about where you fall on the OCEAN
spectrums.
