Psychopathy in the workplace is a trait that some people have where they act in a way that goes against most of society's rules and expectations. It usually involves manipulating people, breaking rules, and lying in order to get ahead. People who are psychopaths in the workplace tend to lack empathy, often putting their own needs ahead of everyone else’s, and they might also be aggressive or intimidating. Psychopathy in the workplace makes it difficult for other employees to trust the psychopathic person, because they are often so unpredictable and untrue. As a result, the office environment can be hostile and uncomfortable, making it hard for everyone to do their jobs effectively.
