In the specialized literature, the Hybris Syndrome and the paradox of power are described as characteristics of authoritarian power, which have negative repercussions on society or the organization. Being, in fact, imminent characteristics of any power, within the authoritarian leadership style, it manifests itself most intensely. The phenomena of power paradox and Hubris Syndrome are important for the study of authoritarian thinking and behaviour, as they allow us to understand the mental and attitudinal factors that influence the formation of authoritarian leadership styles. The Hybris Syndrome is an occupational hazard that affects all leaders, whether they are managers, soldiers, politicians or scientists. The feeling of omnipotence and impunity can occur in leaders of any level and in any field of activity, but the risk increases with the rise in the hierarchical ladder and with the increase in the duration of the person's position. |
