The Narcissist in the Association
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Discussion with Legal Expert Jennifer Cunha, Esq. and Board-Certified Psychiatrist Dr. Ivan Cichowicz
Is your association struggling with someone who always has to be right — who dominates every meeting, ignores boundaries, or makes everything about them?
Do you have a board member who demands admiration, resists rules, or turns every discussion into a power play? Or perhaps a resident whose arrogance and lack of empathy are creating chaos and conflict in your community?
The Narcissist in the Association is a deep dive into narcissistic personality traits, how they manifest in HOA and condo settings, and what your board can do to protect itself.
Learn how to set firm boundaries, keep meetings on track, and de-escalate tension while maintaining professionalism and emotional balance.
Get tools from legal and clinical experts to preserve order, fairness, and sanity in your association — even when ego takes the floor.
