It is important to see the bully triad as a system problem and not caused by individual outliers of the organization. Bully triads exist because there is something wrong with the norms and ways of the workplace culture and the subcultures that exist. Even if a bully event were resolved, it would not take long for another bully event to occur because the way of conducting business has not changed. Systems are powerful and can provide a sense of rightness and justice, or they can perpetuate toxic behaviors and bully events that bog down operations. But systems that exist to standardize or to create processes that can measure workplace culture shifts are the best preventative measure to keep new bully triads from forming.
