Authoritarian Leadership Roles

In leadership roles, spiritual narcissist craves control and tend to be authoritarian.

They may claim divine inspiration for their decisions, making it difficult for others to challenge their authority.

This can create an environment of fear and compliance rather than one of mutual respect and collaboration.

They might also isolate or marginalize those who question them, creating divisions within the community.

Consider an Example:

A Christian narcissist in a pastoral role might make decisions unilaterally, presenting them as divinely inspired and beyond reproach.

This can discourage healthy dialogue and critical thinking within the congregation, fostering an atmosphere where questioning authority is seen as questioning God.
