Despite evidence linking narcissism to leadership, the influence of leader narcissism on leader/follower social exchange remains unclear. Moreover, while researchers acknowledge that narcissistic personality is a dimensional construct, the preponderance of extant literature approaches the concept of narcissistic leadership categorically by focusing on the reactive or constructive narcissistic extremes. This bimodal emphasis ignores self-deceptive forms of narcissistic leadership, where vision orientation and communication could differ from leaders with more reactive or constructive narcissistic personalities. We argue that we encountered a compelling example of a communal, self-deceiving narcissist during archival research of Robert Owen's collective experiment at New Harmony, Indiana. In order to explore Owen's narcissistic leadership, we utilize an analytically structured history approach to interpret his leadership, as he conveyed his vision of social reform in America. Approaching data from a 'history to theory' perspective and via a communicative lens, we use insights from our abductive analysis to advance a cross-paradigm, communication-centered process model of narcissistic leadership that accounts for the full dimensional nature of leader narcissism and the relational aspects of narcissistic leadership.
