Abstract
This paper examines the link between the Dark Triad of personality types (Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, and Narcissism) and workplace behaviors. The research objective seeks to confirm the relationship between the Dark. We discuss the background of Dark Triad research in the field, summarize empirical findings in comparison to prior studies, and discuss the implications of the findings within the broader field of organizational behavior management. By better understanding the strengths and weaknesses of individuals with Dark Triad characteristics, organizations can ensure they are provided with appropriate guidance to ensure the most beneficial relationship possible for both sides.
