See all- Corporate Psychopaths with Dr Clive BoddyThe Blue Moon, Cambridge
This page is for information only, to confirm your attendance please book your tickets through our box office.
Dr Clive Boddy has been researching the effects of having psychopaths in the workplace since 2005. His ground-breaking work on corporate psychopaths was initially subject to ridicule and rejection, as it went against the prevailing paradigmatic view that all psychopaths end up in jail and not in the boardroom, but the idea of the corporate psychopath is now firmly established and accepted.
He will discuss who corporate psychopaths are, why they are obsessed with career advancement, what they do to their colleagues and organizations, the effects of their actions, and why they ultimately harm society and should be controlled.
Dr Clive Boddy is currently the Deputy Head of the School of Management at Anglia Ruskin University and was previously Professor of Management at the University of Tasmania, and before that Professor of Leadership in London.
He has also held visiting Professorships at Lincoln and Middlesex Universities. His research interests include qualitative research techniques, toxic leadership and particularly in researching the effects of corporate psychopaths on employees, the organisation and society.
His publications on corporate psychopaths include over 50 papers, several chapters, two doctorates and two books: ‘Corporate Psychopaths: Organizational Destroyers’ and, most recently, ‘A Climate Of Fear: Stone Cold Psychopaths at Work’. He has published more on corporate psychopaths than any other academic globally.
Please note, due to venue regulations, events are open to over 18s only.
