How to Turn Around Workplace Bullies & Abrasive Leaders

Stop Workplace Bullying

Even the most skilled worker can be a liability and harm productivity by causing trouble on the team. They overreact, they’re controlling, they make threats and humiliate others ... they’re bullies, abrasive leaders or workplace meanies. While they may be valuable to your organization, given their ability to drive results, they also cost your organization in lowered morale, increased absenteeism and the risk of retaliation against you, the employer.

You may think how a person behaves can’t be helped, but companies and leaders cannot afford to ignore this behavior. By understanding these employees and applying tried-and-true tactics, you can turn harmful behavior around, drive productivity and protect team morale.

Join Catherine Mattice, founder/CEO of Civility Partners, focused on helping organizations create workplace cultures that drive productivity through an environment based on mutual respect. If anyone can offer advice to turn around toxic behavior, it’s someone who boasts proven results. Secure your spot today to end the bullying and make your company a place where employees feel safe and provide superior results.
