We show that narcissistic CEOs are willing to sacrifice compensation for media coverage. The results of our study imply that firms with high media coverage exploit the narcissistic CEO’s desire for attention and acclaim by granting such a CEO a smaller monetary compensation. Our findings are important in understanding the interplay between CEO narcissism, CEO compensation, and the firm’s media coverage. Our results are statistically significant, robust, and economically meaningful.
