Narcissists have an exaggerated sense of entitlement and require constant admiration. They are quick to claim credit for others\u2019 achievements and blame colleagues for their own failures. They care only about their own success, and they\u2019re willing to take advantage of others to get what they need. In short, they\u2019re incredibly difficult to work for.<\/p>\n<p>Narcissists, have a \u201cstrong ego ideal\u2014a vision of who they think they should be. They are controlled by the shame of not living up to this ideal.\u201d Productive narcissists are often creative strategists who see the \u201cbig picture\u201d and find meaning in the risky challenge of changing the world and leaving behind a legacy. It will serve you in the long run to make an effort to \u201cunderstand who your boss wants to be\u201d and take steps to \u201chelp him live up to that ideal\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The worst thing you can do to a narcissistic individual is to criticize, challenge, or undermine him<\/p>\n<p>If you do, he will react in an aggressive and combative way. And he will seek revenge.\u201d If you need to make a particular business case, framing your argument around what is good for your manager\u2019s image and career. \u201cYour boss doesn\u2019t care what is good for the company<\/p>\n<p>However, if you\u2019re able to demonstrate that a certain strategy portends a disaster (or a victory) for your boss, you\u2019re much more likely to win him over. \u201cNarcissists are constantly trying to figure out, what does this mean for me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indulging in workplace gossip is rarely a wise move. When your boss is a narcissist, it can be dangerous. \u201cBe very careful,\u201d . \u201cThese people tend to be paranoid and see enemies everywhere.\u201d Anything you say will likely get back to your boss, \u201cNarcissists are constantly trying to collect information about what other people think of them<\/p>\n<p>Even if you successfully employ the above tactics, chances are that working for a narcissist will take a toll on your satisfaction at work. Carefully consider whether you want to continue working for this person. Of course, quitting your job or getting a new boss isn\u2019t always possible\u2014or the answer. \u201cIt\u2019s a personal decision, and some people are more tolerant than others<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manager\u2019s Office<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>HR Dept<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Me and my Selfish Boss Business Advices A narcissist comes across as charming, charismatic, and confident,\u201d he says. \u201cHe seems&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4487,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.7 -
