Abstract

The chapter delves into the adverse effects of corporate psychopath leaders on employee well-being, discussing how their toxic behaviors create a hostile work environment characterized by bullying, stress, and reduced job satisfaction. It explores the mechanisms through which these leaders impact organizational ethics and employee mental health, drawing on qualitative research to illustrate the severe consequences of working under such leadership. The chapter also highlights the challenges faced by HR professionals in addressing these issues and suggests practical strategies to mitigate the harmful effects of corporate psychopaths on employee well-being and organizational performance.
