peaceableness
Explanation:
wg słownika Collinsa "peaceable person" - pokojowo nastawiony do świata/otoczenia

They define peaceableness as freedom from conflict, a virtue necessary for people to flourish. Peaceableness can be fostered by
the organization and practiced by individuals within the corporate
community. Beck-Dudley and Hanks then describe how the Champion Paper Products at the Sartel Minnesota Paper Mill changed its corporate atmosphere from one of "warfare" to one of cooperation after the parties, exhausted by their conflict, adopted a sense of peaceableness in their contract negotiations.

..."what leads to peace is not violence, but peaceableness, which is not passivity, but an alert, informed, practiced, active state of being." Peaceableness, an alert, informed, practiced, active state of being, is what we nurture at Lake Country. Our classrooms are structured to help children be compassionate people who solve problems peacefully. We talk about peaceful resolution instead of conflict resolution. We don't avoid the very real presence of conflict in our community, but our method for resolving those differences is to focus on the ultimate goal of resolution arrived at peaceably.

amicableness / congeniality


Explanation:
Jak np. ma byc do CV, w spisie cech osobistych, to tak bym dal. ale tylko jezeli jakos musi byc rzeczownik. prawde mowiac zadna z tych form rzeczownikowych nie jest zbyt zgrabna, wiec moze najlepiej dac przymiotnik: amicable, congenial, albo j.w.?
