ruled by the controlling, manipulative, and abusive <span style="mso-spacerun:

</span>boss, is a staple of our popular culture as well as the object of sustained investigation by scholars in a variety of disciplines.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</span>The misery occasioned by bullying bosses is all over the internet, and observers have long documented the cost of the same to companies, organizations, and economies.<span style="mso-spacerun:

</span>Yet the workplace continues<span style="mso-spacerun:
yes"> </span>to serve as a site for the expression of aggression and casual brutality despite our ever-more-refined characterologies and interventional strategies.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</span>In this paper, I examine one dimension of this recalcitrant issue, focusing on a fundamental ambivalence about the leader’s character as sketched by psychologists and other students of management and leadership.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</span>In this literature, the leader’s charisma, creativity, and even authoritarianism are deemed essential but also of a piece with the callousness, paranoia, and destructiveness that bring organizations to ruin.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>This ambivalence finds support in the wider culture, which celebrates a risk-taking grandiosity in leaders that is at odds with calls for supporting employees’ autonomy and recognizing their competencies.</font></p>
