Abstract
Just as personality disorders afflict individuals, so too can they apply to firms. This paper examines psychological theory relating to the three clusters of personality disorder so as to integrate it the normal development of firms. The purpose is to point out pitfalls that constrain the firm from achieving optimal growth and performance and to provide guidelines to ensure organizational wellness through the growth stages of entrepreneurial firms.
