Dr. Ben Leichtling discusses the behaviors common to workplace bullies and distinguishes between overt and covert bullies. Overt bullies are easy to spot with their aggressive, in-your-face behavior, but covert bullies are more subtle. They use sneaky, manipulative, backstabbing tactics to gain advantage over their fellow workers, to take advantage of those weaker than themselves, and to form cliques that work to give the bullies power that they do not deserve.
Workplace bullies are a drain on company productivity and a drag on the bottom line. Employee turnover and sick leave are often much higher than normal in departments where covert bullies have their way. It is important to learn to recognize signs of sneaky, covert bullying and to take action quickly to stop it before it causes irreparable harm to the organization.
Whether you are a supervisor dealing with bullying among your workers or a worker trying to keep yourself sane and productive in the face of bullying on your job site, call Dr. Leichtling for personal coaching. He will help you identify bullying behavior in the workplace and help you formulate a plan for dealing with it quickly and effectively.
