Sociability can be a tricky trait. Those with high socialibility and strong extraversion characteristics are frequently selected to be leaders, particularly if they are technical or scientific experts. Often, we are eager to promote those scientifically astute professionals who are outgoing and well spoken. This is because many in these fields tend to be introverts and some are even social blunderers. Rushing to this judgment on leadership suitability can be a huge mistake.
Just because an IT professional, physician, or R & D scientist speaks well does not equate to leadership capability. "Leadership Energy" is the essential scale to measure or trait and is the first hurdle to effective leadership. One can have high Sociability and low Leadership Energy -- which can appear misleading and often results in the wrong promotional decisions.
