The narcissistic boss is a common cliché in the world of work. According to psychologist Ramzi Fatfouta, however, it is often true. A conversation about toxic structures, the hunger for power and the power of narcissism.
narcissism is now a permanent part of our society. We like to assume that our fellow human beings have these character traits – even our unfriendly boss. You have been researching this for years, Mr Fatfouta. How do we really recognize narcissism in a professional context?
Ramzi Fatfouta: There is no single characteristic that can be used to identify narcissism. I like to describe the whole thing as a kaleidoscope because it is a very multifaceted characteristic. That is, narcissism manifests itself differently depending on the context and personality. But there are four dominant facets that shape the narcissistic personality structure.
