Cover Story: Narcissistic leadership has been consistently linked to negative individual and organizational outcomes, including employee turnover intention. This study investigates the mediating role of Psychological Capital (PsyCap)—comprising hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism—in this relationship. Data showed that narcissistic leadership is positively associated with turnover intention. PsyCap was a significant mediator. Specifically, self-efficacy proved vital in reducing the intention to quit, while optimism unexpectedly demonstrated a positive relationship with turnover intent. These findings highlight the role of psychological capital in the pathway between narcissistic leadership and turnover. The results underscore the necessity for organizations to manage the adverse effects of narcissistic leadership and strategically invest in the psychological well-being of their workforce.
