The Business Coach

Dr. Berglas,

Having read your post today, and being familiar with your other writings, I can't help but wonder if you will cover the recurring question in my mind: Given that many executives and power players have deep-seated feelings that their accolades fraudulently reflect their true skills, value, intelligence, etc., how do the self-destructive, narcissistic behaviors you describe reconcile those feelings?

Is it self-fulfilling to reconcile one's circumstances with one's feelings worthlessness, or is this drive caused by some other egotistical anomaly?

Sincerely
RG

Hello Dr steven,
i appreciate your excellent work--it is tragic and sad when you see highly successful people from all walks of life hurting their own-selves and go down--
Infact we used to study the effects of power--like Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely--which is universal and holds true even today but your study is interesting which goes a step further in understanding the dynamics of the psychological effects of success on a perticular person in complete details--
I have been in the corporates for the past thirty years and observed many characters who annihilated themselves completely--
Value system and character teaching becomes vital at the school and college level--

Hi,

I have been reading this blog for some time now but never bothered to comment until today. Wanted to let you know that I am a fan and enjoy your work.

Thanks,
