    Responding to the Workplace Narcissist
    (2007-07-10T12:30:06Z) Wesner, Bradley S.; Sandwina, Ronald M.; Parrish-Sprowl, John; Sheeler, Kristina Horn
    The presence of narcissism in the workplace is well established. Some have even gone so far as to extol the virtues of the narcissistic personality and the effect that it has on the leadership roles in organizations. Still, research suggests that there are more narcissists than there are leadership positions that might be filled. It is well established that the presence of those with strong narcissistic tendencies at the lower levels of organizations are disruptive to the productivity and the morale of the organization as a whole. This paper found that five coping method categories existed: non-responding, quitting one’s job, befriending the narcissist, confronting the narcissist, and going to management. Contrary to existing literature, only quitting one’s job or going to management were perceived by respondents as effective methods.

    Workplace incivility experienced by Health Administration faculty
    (Ingentaconnect, 2019-03-01) Taylor, Heather; Harle, Christopher A; Johnson, Sarah M; Menachemi, Nir; Health Policy and Management, School of Public Health
    Workplace incivility is low-intensity, nonspecific, discourteous behavior towards others and may negatively affect employee and organizational outcomes. This exploratory study sought to examine the prevalence of and factors related to experiencing several different types of workplace incivility using a national sample of Health Administration full-time faculty members in the United States. We found that 27–36% of respondents have experienced at least one type of uncivil behavior from students, coworkers, or supervisors. Further, 4–9% of faculty respondents experience such incidents frequently. Faculty respondents who experienced workplace incivility were significantly more likely to report lower job satisfaction and indicated an intention to leave their position within the next three years. Academic leaders should work to foster an environment where incivility towards others is actively discouraged, as it may contribute to dissatisfaction and turnover.
