Moral emotions:

emotions that have moral implications because of our instant judgement of the situation that evokes them.
 Our responses to moral emotions differ from our responses to other emotions.
 Moral emotions are learned, usually in childhood.
 Because morality is a construct that differs between cultures, so do moral emotions.

Research on moral emotions questions the previous belief that emotional decision making is based on higher-level cognitive
processes.
 Our beliefs are shaped by our groups, resulting in an unconscious feeling that our shared emotions are “right.”

If i was a manager:

-Consider screening job candidates for high
conscientiousness

—as well as the other Big Five traits

—depending on the criteria your organization finds most important. Other aspects, such as core self-evaluation or
narcissism, may be relevant in certain situations.

-Although the MBTI has faults, you can use it for training and development; to help employees better understand each other, open up communication in work groups, and possibly reduce conflicts.

-Evaluate jobs, work groups, and your organization to determine the optimal personality fit.

-Take into account employees' situational factors when evaluating their observable personality traits, and lower the situation strength, to better ascertain personality characteristics.

-The more you consider people’s different cultures, the better you will be able to determine their work behavior and create a positive organizational climate that performs well.
