Upward Bullying: Navigating Abusive Behaviors by People with Less Authority

bullying

We typically think of bullying as coming from peers and people in higher positions within an organization. But According to the Workplace Bullying Institute, 14 % of all workplace bullying in the U.S. is bullying by direct reports or people with less organizational authority. This workshop explores how to mitigate the conditions that allow this form of bullying to occur and to get through it when it does.

  • All

How will the learning take place? (e.g., Will the session include lecture, interactive discussion, breakouts and/or small group activities?)
