Survivors of Workplace Bullying

 

Candidates with short work histories or failure to develop within the organization may indicate that a person has been a member of a bully triad in the past. Remember, a bully triad consists of the bully, the victim, and the bystander. It is essential that during the screening process, questions are presented to explore the candidate’s opinions and ideas or experience with workplace bullies. Often, members of previous bully triads consist of individuals who have tried to survive toxic workplaces, and bringing them into your organization may involve a time of healing so that the employee can learn to trust again and relinquish unhealthy coping mechanisms. Workplace bullying is common, and finding elements of past triads in new employees may help managers develop new employee orientation programs that include a triage area for support and clarification of acceptable behaviors and values.

Escalations in Chaos and Workplace Tension

 

The workplace bully can easily be identified when there are escalations in chaos and workplace tension because bullies are often central figures who receive credit for all infamous deeds and, sometimes, heroics. Bullies harbor resources, information, and knowledge and undermine every functional process. However, workplace bullies do not suddenly emerge into existence but are fueled by imbalances in the organizational culture and slowly nurtured to take their unfair share of the workplace power.
