Beat the Bully

from Russel Stuart

Overview:
Do you work with a bully? The definition of bullying is activity that is unfair, humiliating, malicious, vindictive and intended to harm the victim. It is persistent and prolonged.

In today's high-tech world, bullying isn't limited strictly to face-to-face interactions; this behavior has taken to computer networks, where it shows its face in nasty emails (after all, email gives you more time to choose your words and be unemotional - and it gives you a paper trail). No matter how it happens, though, bullying can be hurtful and it also can damage professional reputations.

Why you should Attend:
Does any of this sound familiar?
Your boss is constantly saying things to humiliate you with malicious comments and vindictive phone calls. What if you knew exactly what to do to put an end to the bullying – without losing your job?
You are sick and tired of a particular co-worker bullying you, but have no idea how to handle it without creating a huge confrontation. What if you could learn concrete steps to take so that you could confront your bully and carry on a civilized conversation?
You don't want to quit your job, but you're at your wit's end with a bully in the office. It's affecting every aspect of your life; in fact, you don't even sleep most nights! What if you could create a working action plan for putting a stop to the bullying, even if it meant working with HR and Senior Management?
You're tired of cowering behind your desk every time you hear your bully approaching. You're tired of being afraid of his next demeaning comment and its effect on you. What if you could learn specific things to say to put a stop to it so you could feel comfortable at work?
