Excerpt:

Since the COVID‐19 virus has become part of our lives, organizations have been looking for ways to adjust work ar‐rangements and adopt different modes of work (e.g., hybrid and remote work) while maintaining job satisfaction among their employees. This paper explored the relationships between employee’s personality traits and their mindset and their influence on employee resilience and job satisfaction. Additionally, we investigated whether the relationship between personality traits, employee mindset, and desired outcomes varied across different modes of work. This study is important for managers because it helps them better understand the importance of their employees’ individual characteristics in relation to desired outcomes.
