A replay of September 2024’s MBLS webinar.

Identify, survive, and learn alternatives to narcissistic leadership from Corporate Leadership Developer, Mark Thompson.

It has become commonplace to apply the description of Narcissist to many people today, when we believe they are operating selfishly, only in their best interest. As with many things, we may be overusing this term, but it does call to mind that even business leaders can have narcissistic tendencies to the detriment of their organization.

How do we recognize this personality behavior, and once we identify it, is it all bad as most would assume?

We all have some tendencies to serve the needs of self, but when does that become abusive, and damaging to others, and our organization? In this webinar, we will explore the traits of the narcissist leader and employee, the potential damage they can create, how to avoid hiring, tactics to survive working with or for a narcissist leader, and alternatives to narcissistic leadership.

Our faith calls us to Love our neighbor as ourself. The opposite of narcissism is altruism, or a complete devotion to others, and a denial, or sacrifice of self. We can likely agree, that narcissism results in limited good in business leadership, but should we then pursue pure altruistic leadership?
