Founder personality could predict Startup success, study suggests

From the article:

"The facets distinguishing successful entrepreneurs include a preference for variety, novelty and starting new things (openness to adventure), like being the center of attention (lower levels of modesty) and being exuberant (high activity levels)."

And a little further down:

'"Our findings clearly show there's not one ideal 'founder-type' personality," says Associate Professor Margaret (Peggy) Kern, senior author of the study from the University of Melbourne. "Instead, the Big Five personality traits of successful start-up founders, which we can break down further across 30 dimensions, reveal six distinct types: fighters, operators, accomplishers, leaders, engineers and developers."'
