Bullying in the Workplace: How to spot it? What to do about it?

Abstract

Bullying is an insidious assertion of power over someone deemed by the bully to be vulnerable. It often happens out of the blue, making it hard to anticipate and counteract in the moment. Longer term, it can have repercussions for one’s peace of mind, confidence, social relationships, and overall job performance. The speakers will address how to recognize bullying and understand its causes, as well as how to develop strategies for successful resistance, so that one can put a stop to it.
