Video #3 in the Series Protecting Yourself from Bullies in the Workplace

#BulliesIntheworkplace  #bullies  #CommunicationStrategies

I have an important question for you:  What is done when bullies take over in your workplace?
Clients tell me that bullies in the workplace are not punished and thrive when there is no established rule.  No one in the company has the will to stop bullying!   Many times leaders just don’t know how to change this environment.  This is one of my motivations for creating this new video series.  All the 14 videos are perfect for you to share with your team.  They are short and each one has strategies for you to put to use right away.

Welcome to the video series – “Protecting Yourself from Bullies in the Workplace.”
This video will give you information on why bullies get away with their destructive behavior.

How companies can change a toxic environment with bullies in the workplace

• Make enforcement procedures
• Intervene
• Education and training are critical
• Start documenting complaints
• Create a code of honor to be clear about accountability when bullies in the workplace take over

Most bullies would stop if rules change and bullies are held accountable with clear expectations from leadership.

More thoughts from Joyce on bullies in the workplace

I know that this topic is hitting home to many of my readers because they send me private emails about bullies in their life.  The last few videos in the series have dealt with the definition of a bully, are you a target, and not being victimized by bullies.  We need to look internally when we meet these difficult people and take the communication skills that we already have and put them out there.  Our new tag line is “find your voice with Joyce.”  People want to be heard and gain control back.  The next videos will have strategies on what your company can do and actual words you can say.  Stay tuned because there are 14 videos in the series.
