"Randall Peterson"

Do narcissists have a role
in bettering organizations?
(16:17)

Narcissist leaders represent a conundrum for organisations. On the one hand, they can be huge assets, maintaining impressive drive and vision and enacting sweeping change through the power of their charisma. On the other hand, they can be volatile leaders, exploding at any suggestion that their rosy view of their own competence is inaccurate. In this talk, Randall Peterson will explore the various dimensions of narcissism and discuss how companies can best leverage it to optimally benefit organisations and teams.
