Signs Your Boss is a Narcissist

Awareness is Key to Self-Empowerment

Having a self-absorbed perfectionist for a boss can be a huge headache and even detrimental to our health and well-being in larger ways.

Interacting with them can erode our confidence and sense of reality as we’re constantly mistreated and even blamed for their own failures.
While there is a spectrum to just how bad they can be, we need to take very good care of ourselves when in a toxic work environment that includes the option of quitting.
A Narcissistic Boss destroys your morale and confidence one layer at a time.

5.  Non-Reciprocal

You are there to give to them and they never intend to give back.  They act like they are entitled to your labor.
