Your personality must fit with your network in order to be trusted and successful, new research from UCL School of Management and RSM claims. Otherwise, your friendships might clash with your job. According to professors Martin Kilduff from UCL School of Management and Stefano Tasselli from RSM, brokers maintain trust if they exhibit low ‘blirtatiousness’, i.e., they are relatively slow to speak what’s on their mind, and high self-monitoring, i.e., they are adept at presenting themselves appropriately to quite different groups of people.
