Narcissism in the workplace - a conversation with Clare Chappell
Manage episode 492163825 series 3602283
So far in this podcast series we have focussed predominantly on narcissism in the context of personal relationships. But of course you will encounter narcissists in every area of life - and in particular in the workplace. We all spend a significant proportion of our lives at work. If you find yourself the recipient of narcissistic abuse your position may become completely untenable - yet your options may be limited as you are dependent upon your income and it may not be convenient or even possible to change job. And what is the position of the employer in this context?
Clare Chappell is an independent employment solicitor and Partner at Carbon Law Partners. With 25 years experience in employment law, Clare guides employers and employees through tricky employment situations to help them get to a better place for themselves or their business.
Over the years Clare has developed an interest in how narcissism and narcissistic traits impact on the workplace and has learned to recognise the signs that employees are being treated unfairly due to particular actions by a narcissistic manager or business owner. Clare works in a holistic way, alongside coaches and other professionals, to help people remove themselves from toxic situations which are detrimental to their long term self esteem and well being.
