Question:
A large national retail organization specializing in upscale, trend-forward merchandise that appeals to a younger clientele is experiencing considerable difficulty managing its employees. Morale is very low, and there have been numerous incidences of bullying and incivility among employees. Theft among employees has increased and is much higher than the national retail average. Absenteeism and turnover rates are also much higher than the national average. The retailer is considering several interventions to address these problems including the use of personality tests but is very skeptical that personality tests could be of any help. Explain why the use of a professionally developed personality test based on the FFM of personality to select employees could be a viable way to help address the problems facing this employer.
