A Sydney psychologist and criminal profiler is running
seminars
on spotting workplace psychopaths. According to John Clarke, signs of
psychopathic behaviour include "a narcissistic personality, a grandiose sense
of self, liars, cheaters, smooth talkers, bored workers, changing jobs quickly
and believing they should be higher up in the company", and employers
should identify and monitor suspicious employees.
"These people have the same psychological make-up as killers such as Martin
Bryant and Ted Bundy. Their only difference is that they have the ability to
hide their psychopathic tendencies behind the front of a respectable,
white-collar job."
