Qualitative and quantitative approaches have been used to explore the relationship between personality and occupational stress of academic managers by using a sample of 120 academic managers of public sector institutions of higher education located in Punjab, Pakistan.

Total sample size was 120.For data analysis; both descriptive and inferential statistics were used. Research instrument Occupational Stress Inventory–revised (OSI-R) and MBTI were used to collect data. For data analysis percentages, mean, standard deviation and Pearson correlation were used. Data analysis revealed that common main domains of personality characteristics found in academic managers were (extroversion, sensing, thinking, judging) and positive relationship was found in responses of academic managers regarding relationship between personality type and occupational stress while negative significant relationship was found between extroversion and sensing with personal resources.
