Perfiles de Personalidad en Trabajadores de una Empresa Privada: Implicaciones Para la Adaptación en Contextos Organizacionales

In the contemporary organizational context, individual differences in personality are key to understanding adaptation and job performance, although they are not always systematically assessed. The objective of this study was to analyze personality profilesamong employees of a private company in Quito (2025), considering their distribution by sex and their implications for organizational adaptation. The methodology followed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional, non-experimental, and descriptive design. The sample consisted of 50 employees selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. The 16PF-5 was used to assess primary traits and global personality dimensions. The results showed global scores close to the average, with moderate levels of anxiety, toughness, and independence, and slightly lower introversion. The control/perfectionism factor (Q3) had the highest scores in both sexes; men showed lower dominance and tension, while women exhibited lower guilt proneness. The discussion suggests stable profiles associated with self-control and behavioral regulation. It is concluded that personality assessment helps to understand workplace adaptation and is a valuable tool for human talent management.
