Abstract
The main purpose of this research was to compare the egotism of administrative and clerical staff. A study was made on randomly selected 200 employees (100 administrative and 100 clerical) from different organizations in Agra, who were administered egotism scale (constructed by the investigator herself). T-test was employed to compare the egotism of administrative staff and clerical staff. There is a no significant difference between egotism of administrative staff and that of clerical staff (t = 1.125, p > .05), showing that egotism is equally prevalent among employees of both the levels. The result revealed that egotism creates hindrances or barrier in getting life-satisfaction or happiness in life. The degree of dissatisfaction leads to a greater degree of unhappiness and leading to their lower well-being.
