Miglior citazione da Surviving Your Dark Triad Boss: Strategic Defense Guide

The most dangerous aspect of dark triad bosses is their ability to isolate victims, using social manipulation to make you doubt your own perceptions. Your defense requires building a robust network of workplace relationships and maintaining the mindful space where you can choose your response rather than becoming emotionally reactive.
