摘要:Today, a growing number of organizations are turning to group as a way to develop and deploy their human capital in search of peak operational performance. However the success of a group depends on the attitude of the group members. Hence, this study assessed how personality traits affect group performance of Academic staff Union of Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Akoko, Ondo state. A cross-sectional survey research design was used in carrying out this study and data were gathered from primary source. the population of the study consist of the total lecturers in Adekunle Ajasin University that belong to ASUU which is 431 staff while the sample size of the study was derived using Taro Yamane formula and this amounted to 207 staff. Purposive sampling technique was used in selecting the sample. The results revealed that the predictor variables (openness to experience, Neuroticism, Extraversions, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness) were individually statistically significant to group performance, and so the overall effect of personality trait on group performance was significant (F= 15.055, p<0.00).Based on the findings, it is recommended that organisation should give a reasonable attention to personality trait because it’s the trait exhibited by individual that has an influence in the performance of the success of the group.
