Abstract

The last two decades have witnessed several theoretical and methodological innovations in the CEO personality literature. In light of this, this paper aims to review the current literature on CEO personality. We employ a narrative approach to integrate findings across the literature on CEO personality. Theoretically, our review highlights the positive and negative aspects associated with both positive personality traits (e.g., Big 5, SEO) and negative personality traits (e.g., narcissism). We also find several new unobtrusive measures in the literature for CEO personality. We end our review with directions for future research. This study highlights the need for a non-obtrusive CSE measurement. Finally, we stress the importance of creating a model that can be used to look at multiple CEO personality models at once.
