Alpha men are a misfit at the workplace, says study

February 01, 2012 15:36

Alpha men may not agree, but a new study has claimed that they could be a misfit in office, after researchers found that those with high testosterone levels are stubborn, over-confident, and hard to work with.

"Testosterone also affects our decisions, by making us more egotistical. Most of the time, this allows us to seek the best solution to a problem, but sometimes too much testosterone can help blind us to other people's views.

"This can be very significant when we are talking about a dominant individual trying to assert his or her opinion in, say, a jury," the Daily Mail quoted Nick Wright at University College London, who led the study, as saying.
