Roughly 4% to as high as 12% of CEOs exhibit psychopathic traits, according to some expert estimates, many times more than the 1% rate found in the general population and more in line with the 15% rate found in prisons.[1] While many companies have personality tests and extensive interview processes, they are ineffective at screening out psychopaths, especially the intelligent ones. Psychopaths can lie with ease, and they are clever enough to provide the preferred answer on any personality test. In that sense, a psychopath has an advantage over another executive with a similar aptitude and accomplishments who will not lie for career advancement.[1]
