Narcissism in MBAs

I felt it in some of my colleagues during my MBA. Narcissism can be defined as an exceptional interest and admiration for oneself. A study presented at the Academy of Management in Montreal approves that it is present in MBA students more than in others.

The researchers measured the narcissistic tendencies among the students by using a metric named Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI) score. And they found that business students had the score much above the other graduates!

Should we say, Watch out, MBAs!
