'... a well-written text for HR use or for organisational psychology studies...' -- Katrina Johnston, People Management 'This book is both welcome and timely and illustrates, through several case examples, the profoundly dysfunctional impact which excessive narcissistic and omnipotent behaviour generates. In particular the book highlights how tortuous and destructive such behaviour becomes when exercised by those in positions of organisational power and influence. Also explored are means of countering and containing such dysfunctions... the complexity of the material is presented in a very readable and practical manner which reinforces its applicability to the everyday experiences of the reader... To my mind the book meets its stated objectives and provides sufficient material, and in a digestible form, which the interested and thoughtful reader can readily draw upon.' -- Michael Walton, Counselling at Work
