Seeking Civility? Understanding and Eradicating Workplace Bullying

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

Workplace bullying is repeated psychological abuse meant to demean and humiliate, shown in behavior such as constant yelling, sabotaging someone's work, hostile emails and deliberate exclusion. This 60-minute workplace bullying prevention training explains what bullying is and how to stop it.

You'll learn the definition and examples of bullying, the social system that lets it continue, and the harm it causes targets, bystanders and the organization. The session shows how to make a business case to the C-suite, implement a policy employees buy into, lean on core values, and empower employees, supervisors and managers to intervene.

It also covers building a strategic plan, effective training and regulatory developments, including where bullying has already been made illegal.
