Today, our subject is: the upside of narcissism.
Generally speaking, Narcissism is a negative word. The American Psychiatric Association defines narcissists as those who maintain grandiose views of their self importance. Narcissism is used to describe those people who are extremely overconfident about themselves, to the extent that they can’t help but to love themselves more than anyone else.
Take the president of United States, Donald Trump, for example. When he calls himself to be the second greatest president in the history of United States just after Abraham Lincoln, a lot of people would call that narcissism.
So how can narcissism be a good thing for an organization? How can a narcissist be a good leader or team player? Does narcissism help us to achieve better goods? These are the questions that we will discuss today.
