For Managers and Supervisors
It is a rare workplace that has never had a bully. Almost every manager has felt frustrated when confronted with bullies and their effect on other employees. Once an employee is in a bully’s crosshairs there is better than 80% chance that the employee will quit, or give up on their job to escape the bullying.
"Bullies are an enemy of high productivity"
Bullies do not just attack individual workers—they attack and damage the organization. Bullying in the workplace happens four times more frequently than illegal discriminatory harassment; yet, less than 10% of companies have a policy to address it. It impacts upon the careers, the productivity and the health of its victims, as well as the viability of the company.
In this workshop Richard Pimentel will explain:
- Who bullies are and why they do it.
- Who are the victims?
- Why we put up with bullies.
- The types of bullying, acts of commission and omission.
- How women bullies differ from men bullies.
- What Human Resources should do when made aware of bullying.
- How to identify bullies in the workplace.
- How to prevent bullying in the workplace.
- Can bullies be cured?
Any manager and supervisor who is a bully or has ever had to deal with a bully in their workplace will not want to miss this workshop. Any manager who expects they will have to deal with a bully in the workplace in the future cannot afford to miss this training.
