After a few years of random work experience, I would say that out of the 5 major personality traits, I would want my future boss to be agreeable. While all of the other traits are important, I believe that a boss that is agreeable can benefit the company immensely. With this trait, employees in the entire company would be happy, want to be there, and get along easily. If an employee's boss is sincere and friendly, it will only help the overall work environment. A generous and genuine boss will boost employee morale as opposed to a pessimistic or negative boss. For example, one of my former managers played favorites with employees. The one's she favored, loved the job and the one's she didn't like all that much, hated working there. If she had just been sincere, nice, and agreeable to all of the workers just the same, everyone would enjoy working there and plenty of work would get done. After figuring out I was one of my manager's favorites, I enjoyed coming to work and had no problem doing any of the things that was asked upon.
This characteristic would enhance his/her management skills because people would be much more enthusiastic to work there. People would work to their full capacity and be fully engaged in their work. Possibly looking for ways to help the company best and constantly trying to get better. If employees know they are able to go to their boss about their ideas, they will probably work harder to improve the company. All of this helps a manager because now he/she has employees willing to work hard for him/her and do whatever is best for the company in the manager's eyes. Being more agreeable helps Manager's see the perspective of his/her employees and can possibly help improve the company in a way they didn't see beforehand.
