if he is a NPD I would avoid all contact. They are notorious bullies, rumour mongers and stalkers in the workplace. I would also start looking for a new job if i had to work along side one, eventually they make everyones lives a misery and everyone around them leaves. In the meantime you can use flattery " wow, your so great, you do a fantasitc job", etc as they realy are ego based, then i would leave. Do not take one on head to head particulary if he is causing probems for you as he will lie, deny and project everything onto you, spreading those lies around and making your life impossible. They are very angry people on the inside despite portraying a person of good character with charisma. Keep away, they are snakes.

∙ 7y agoIt is important to keep your distance. A narcissist is always looking for people to exploit. Take care to not let him shift his work over to you or take credit for your work. If he thinks he can derive benefit from you he will try to become your best friend.
Also, it is extremely important that you do not share personal information with him or personal employment information. To a narcissist knowledge is power and he will use any information about you to his benefit.
You can counteract all his strategies by maintaining a cordial but firmly professional relationship and always keep your distance. The following may help.
