Narcissistic Leaders: The Incredible Pros, the Inevitable Cons

Reprint: R0401J In the winter of 2000, at the height of the dot-com boom, business leaders posed for the covers of Time,BusinessWeek, and the Economist with the aplomb and confidence of rock stars. These were a different breed from their counterparts of just ten or 20 years before, who shunned the press and whose comments were carefully crafted by corporate PR departments. Such love of the limelight often stems from what Freud called a narcissistic personality, says psychoanalyst and anthropologist Michael Maccoby in this HBR classic first published in the January–February 2000 issue. Narcissists are good for companies in extraordinary times, those that need people with the passion and daring to take them in new directions. But narcissists can also lead companies into disaster by refusing to listen to the advice and warnings of their managers. It’s not always true, as Andy Grove famously put it, that only the paranoid survive. Most business advice is focused on the more analytic personality that Freud labeled obsessive. But recommendations about creating teamwork and being more receptive to subordinates will not resonate with narcissists. They didn’t get where they are by listening to others, so why should they listen to anyone when they’re at the top of their game? Narcissists who want to overcome the limits of their personalities must work as hard at that as they do at business success. One solution is to find a trusted sidekick, who can point out the operational requirements of the narcissistic leader’s often overly grandiose vision and keep him rooted in reality. Another is to take a leap of faith and go into psychoanalysis, which can give these leaders the tools to overcome their sometimes fatal character flaws.

@georgetakei Agreed; Twitter is now allowing truly repulsive material and wild propaganda to spread unchecked. So far Mastodon seems a far better option. 🖖
My mastodon link at my pinned tweet on Twitter is now warning anyone who clicks on it that the sight may be “unsafe.”
You know what actually feels unsafe right now? Musk on Twitter.
They need conspiracy and comfortable lies because it’s the only way they can explain the chaotic world. Some things are chaos because they are chaos. An explanation is not always needed. That’s what is so fascinating. We will be fine. We will likely make something better which is what we all deserve
@SpockResists Personally, I’m happy here & I feel like we can make a difference & get messages across. I won’t be around to see the #BirdSite fall, I know it will & therefore I will work on something new. I love the idea that we’re not being fed something because of an algorithm, but rather, it is based on what we boost, like, & who we follow.
News, government, and businesses need to build their own servers and come here.
