Schoolyard bullying is bad enough. We all know what it looks like, or so we think, right? Kids tease each other, but it can get grossly out of hand and end tragically. Imagine bullying behavior in the workplace. Executives, managers, supervisors, and even fellow employees use bullying tactics to intimidate employees to do something they know is wrong. But where do you go? To your boss? To Human Resources, maybe? It can be an extremely stressful reality and one often ignored by those who could intervene. We've become aware of sexual harassment xenophobia, racism, and gender bias in our workplace, but CEO and management bullying is rampant. Poison pen emails, text messages, and phone calls mount as intimidation grows more harsh each day. How do you make it stop? Your daily behavioral health is at risk. It would be best if you didn't have to quit to make it stop, but many staff cannot take a minute more. Sadly, suicide does occur and even then, things do not change. This broadcast will help you. Please share this with your colleagues. You may save a life. Thank you!
