We’re going dark… but in a totally self-aware, psychologically fascinating kind of way.
This week on The Elephant in the Org, we’re diving into the Dark Triad — narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism — and how these personality traits show up in leadership. Our guest, the brilliant Danny Wareham (organisational psychologist, coach, and self-proclaimed bee-lover), joins us to unpack why some of these traits might actually be… useful? In the right context, of course.
We ask the real questions:
- Is your CEO just confident… or kinda terrifying?
- Are we accidentally rewarding toxic leadership?
- Can a bit of narcissism actually drive performance?
- What does culture have to do with personality?
- And why does it always come back to self-awareness?
Expect a little sass, a lot of insight, and the usual banter from your favourite trio. Because sometimes, the elephant in the org is charming, powerful… and just a touch self-obsessed.
And if you’re a middle manager trying to survive all of this? This one’s definitely for you.
