There are several versions: big-fish-in-little-pond syndrome; Napoleon complex; severe-tendencies-toward-self-importance; egotistical disorder; I've-always-wanted-to-be-in-charge neurosis; a little-knowledge-can-be-dangerous disorder; and a-little-power-corrupts syndrome.

There is no specific mental illness that causes this behavior. It may be a manifestation of personality traits or a power dynamic within the organization that brings out such behaviors in individuals. Engaging in power struggles and asserting control can be driven by various factors including personality traits, past experiences, or external pressures within the group.
