I’ve tried helping this person in the past and then walked away from her because she was causing too many problems in my life. Now we are part of the same organization but she tends to want to be ‘leader’ though she is not capable of being an effective one because everything is centered around her (her first and only priority); thus the organization is suffering. How do I deal with this sociopath? Should I stop my involvement with the organization or find her a psychiatrist somehow?

I acted by being unintimidated and took a step to gain some clarity with the business issue which seems to be working. Thanks for sharing.

Hugs,

Bill
