     [1] The more honest and modest an employee is, the more likely he or she is to receive a higher job
performance assessment by their boss, according to researchers at Baylor University in Waco, Texas.
The study finds that evaluations of honesty and modesty among employees may predict how their bosses
view job performance.
     [2] "As honesty and modesty increase, manager evaluations of job performance increase," said Dr.
Wade Rowatt, one of the study's lead authors. "The effect honesty and modesty have on job performance
goes above and beyond other personality qualities that might be related to good performance."
     [3] Over a period of a year and a half, Rowatt and his team conducted online surveys of about 270
employees from 25 companies in the health care field. Participants in more than 20 states were asked to
self-report on their own character qualities. These results were then compared to performance reviews
completed by the employees' managers, who evaluated each worker according to 35 job skills. Employees
who self-reported high levels of honesty and modesty also received better job performance reviews by
their bosses.
     [4] Rowatt acknowledges that honesty and modesty will not predict job performance in every field,
especially for jobs where a high level of self-promotion is necessary, such as sales roles or entertainers.
He said, however, that in many workplaces, employees who show ____ will be liked by their colleagues.
     [5] "These are people who are trustworthy, down-to-earth, and easy to relate to," he told the Star.
"They probably get along with their managers and co-workers, and this is driving some of the better
performance evaluations."
