Research

My main research area is on narcissistic leadership and  the contextual factors involved in determining narcissists' effectiveness and emergence as leaders. Despite their negative relational characteristics, such as lack of empathy and exploitativeness, there could be a potential positive side to narcissists in leadership positions. I conduct both experiments and field studies.Other research interests include the effects of narcissism on creativity and perspective taking, and reaction of narcissistic individuals to threats.
