Most likely, yes, as a recent study declares, as reported in the Guardian yesterday.
I find this study hilarious... a bit startling, but more in a way that you see proof for what you knew all along.
But what I find most interesting about it was to see in writing what actually makes the difference between your average manager and a psychopath.
A psychopath is deviant... but only in legal terms. A psychopath isn't law-abiding.
Otherwise the characteristics of personality disorders and the characteristics needed for career success are pretty much the same. What separates them in terms of good/bad is nothing but a social construct.
I dunno whether I should find that comforting or disturbing.
I just know it's funny.
