Preferred term

narcissistic leadership  

Definition

  • Narcissism is one of those ideas that, like repression and projection, has moved so far from its psychoanalytic roots into common parlance that its origins have been forgotten. But common speech is not noted for precision, and precision may be necessary for an adequate delineation of the meaning of the concept. [Source: Encyclopedia of Leadership; Narcissistic Leadership]
