Ending the suffering at work from abrasive leaders.Bringing humanity, dignity and compassion back to the workplace.
|
Workplace bullying is an all too common - but all too misunderstood - workplace behaviour.
Abrasive leaders are shamed. Targets are blamed. And Leadership throws up their hands that it's "just personality conflict and nothing can be done about it".
Nope. Nope. And nope.
Abrasive leaders are not psychopaths in suits who are uncoachable.
Targets aren't overly sensitive and emotional people who can't take critical feedback.
Leadership is not helpless to stop this.

Coaching changed my life. I feel like a different person. It was a really hard time - but out of it has come so many gifts. My base feeling used to be anxiety - all the time. I felt like I was in hiding, had lost my voice and was traumatized by what was happening. I don’t feel like that anymore. I almost never feel anxiety now and if I do it’s just for a few seconds and I move past it. I’ve found my voice. I’ve learned how to stop avoiding and deal with things - especially people!

Sue, you are magical. After our meeting my attitude totally changed and I nailed it!!!! I expressed myself exactly as I hoped to. I walked away with no regrets or wishing I had said anything differently. I was the most thoughtful, eloquent and reflective I have ever been. They were genuinely impressed and complimented me a lot. You're magic, Sue. I have much needed peace now. And a sense of choice, control and power. |
