Episode 75 - Toxic Leadership and the dark triad

In this episode of 'Battling with Business,' hosts Chris and Gareth delve into the complex and impactful topic of toxic leadership. They start by defining what constitutes toxic leadership, emphasising behaviours and traits that undermine, exploit, and harm organisations and individuals. The discussion then shifts to the "dark triad" of personality traits; narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy—often found in toxic leaders. Chris and Gareth examine why toxic leaders emerge and thrive within organisations, considering factors such as cultural acceptance, flawed recruitment processes, and the allure of short-term results. Throughout the episode, they provide insights and anecdotes that highlight the consequences of toxic leadership and the importance of addressing it proactively to foster healthier, more effective work environments.
