Talk:Machiavellianism in the workplace

Article Evaluation

In a study done focused on the effects of Machiavellianism on the subordinates of the workplace, it was found that employees that had low organizational-based self-esteem (OBSE) were more likely to perceive acts of authoritarianism as abusive. Employees with high organizational-based self-esteem (OBSE) were less likely to perceive these acts as abusive and seemed more tolerant of this behavior. In turn, these perceptions could result in negative workplace situations and create a toxic environment. [1] Another study suggests that a feedback loop of these Machiavellianism behaviors could begin in the workplace. Once a person is continuously exposed to these behaviors and endure perceived bullying, there is a significant chance they will adopt these patterns as a means of survival in the workplace. [2]

Corporate Machiavelli
There is a (now deceased) anonymous philosopher known as Corporate Machiavelli who has written 55 essays, analyzing and talking about the subject of Corporate Machiavvelianism/Machiavellianism in the workplace in great detail. He is/was pretty famous, and his Twitter account has around 40,000 followers. Could it be relevant to mention him in this article, or perhaps create a seperate article around him?
