The mistakes that leaders make in the context of strategy implementation are often the result of a narcissistic behavior which denies the participation of subordinates in the strategic decision making. Narcissistic leadership refuses updating obsolete organizational knowledge, participating to team schemes and active listening, resulting in a lack of confidence from organizational members towards top management. This paper identifies narcissist leadership as a major reason of failure in strategy implementation impacting profoundly the organizational welfare.
